3.12  FITNESS TEST PROGRAM 

 
The Fitness Test is a custom-made submaximal test designed to measure cardio-respiratory fitness. Maximal oxygen uptake 
(VO2Max)  is  defined  as  the  maximum  volume  of  oxygen  that  can  be  taken  up,  distributed  and  used  by  the  body  during 
physical  activity.  Testing  one’s  VO2Max  allows  users  to  evaluate  their  fitness  level  and  select  the  appropriate  exercise 
program and intensity levels. 
 
For the submaximal test, the user is challenged to reach 85%-10BPM of their maximum heart rate through gradual increases 
in  resistance  while  pedaling  at  70rpm.  Once  the  85%-10BPM  maximum  heart  rate  threshold  is  reached  the  program  will 
automatically stop and the computer will extrapolate the user’s VO2Max. In order to obtain a more accurate reading it is very 
important to maintain a rotational speed of 70rpm. 
 

NOTE –

 For this program, users must wear the heart rate chest strap or user must hold continuously the hand grips. Cardio-

respiratory  fitness  is  a  combination  of  cardiovascular  fitness  and  respiratory  fitness.  Always  keep  in  mind  that  this  test  is 
submaximal, so the results are only to be used as a guide.

range  of  hill  simulations  at  varying  intensities.  Users  may  choose  up  to  10  hills  per  program  and  select  from  an  intensity 
range of 6% to 18%. The program is distance based and resistance changes are made automatically. Users may change the
