Weight Loss

The workout time is fixed at 28 minutes. The workout

consists of four intervals, each lasting eight minutes. You can

change the resistance at any time during the work interval.

During this workout, resistance and speed vary throughout

the workout in a random pattern.

Performance

Note: When a user presses PERFORMANCE, the message

WORKOUT NOT AVAILABLE will scroll in the upper text

display, if the console is set to

HIDE PROGRAMS in the

Settings menu.
The Fitness Test, available by pressing the PERFORMANCE

key, provides a means of comparing your fitness level with the

official fitness test of the International Association of

Firefighters (IAFF). It is written using the Gerkin Protocol,

which is the basis for the official IAFF fitness test and part of

their Wellness and Fitness Initiative.
During the test, the equipment gradually increases the incline

and speed in specific stages. The keypads are disabled.

Whatever stage you are at when the test ends determines

your aerobic capacity and establishes your VO

2

max. Once

you complete the test, a fitness score appears as part of the

workout summary.
