Multistage model
This type of test is available in Run. This is a submaximal protocol, in which the workload is set by the user..
You need to wear the heart rate monitor to perform the test; if there is no heart rate signal the test does not start.
To start the test, you must enter your age, weight and gender; then the mode and the workload for each of the two effort stages.
In running mode, the minimum speed that can be set is 7.0 km/h; in walking mode, the maximum speed that can be set is 6.9 km/h.
The minimum workload for the second stage is the setting used for the first stage.
The multistage model includes a 90 second warm up, at 0% gradient and half the speed set for the first effort stage.
