RECOVERY TEST:
FITNESS.-
This electronic device is equipped with a
recovery test function. This offers you
the advantage of being able to measure
how long it takes your heart rate to
recover after having finished the
exercise. Upon finishing the exercise
leave your hands on the pulse gauges
and press the “Recovery” button, this
will start a one minute countdown. Only
the Time and Pulse rate function read-
outs will remain displayed. The
electronic device will measure your
pulse rate during this minute. The heart
rate recovery time will be displayed on
the Heart rate line.
If, at any time during this minute, you
decide to abandon this test then press
the “Recovery” button and this will take
you back to the main screen.
When the minute is up, the electronic
device will work out the difference and
your fitness rating will be displayed up
on the screen: F1, F2,..., F5, F16; where
F1 is the best (fitness “Excellent”) and
F6 the worst (fitness “Very Poor”).
The comparison between the worked
heart rate and the recovery heart rate
provides a fast, simple method of
gauging how fit you are. Your fitness
rating is a guideline that shows you
how fast your heart recovers after
physical exertion. If you exercise
regularly then you will see your fitness
rating improve.
The test will not work if the sensor is
not positioned correctly or if the letter
“P” is shown on the screen.
BODY FAT PROGRAM.-
This program is designed to calculate
the user’s body fat percentage and
then create specific load profiles.
Press the BODYFAT key and place
your hands on the pulse sensors (R)
(Hand-grips), and after 8 seconds the
lower screens on the display will
show your FAT% and BMI (Body
Mass Index).
The main screen will display the type
of profile for your body type.
If the error code “Err” appears then
this means that an error has
occurred,
position
your
hands
correctly on the pulse sensors (R),
Fig 3.
