Exercise to Your Target Heart Rate
A heart rate receiver is an integral part of the display so you 
can monitor your heart rate while exercising. If you wear a 
chest strap or grasp both touch-sensitive handrail grips, your 
heart rate (beats per minute) appears on the display.
The Precor web site (www.precor.com) has several 
suggestions for workouts with varying levels of intensity. It 
provides many workout details that include the appropriate 
target heart rate.
The treadmill includes several programs that let you exercise 
based on a specified target heart rate. As you exercise, the 
heart rate programs monitor your heart rate and 
automatically maintain it within a few beats per minute (bpm) 
of your selected target. Refer to Table 2. 
To use these programs, press the PROGRAMS - HEART 
RATE key. For more information, refer to Programs.
