Chapter 5 - Heart Rate Program

Heart Rate Monitor

As an option, the 800S Stepper includes a heart rate monitor, either a CardioTouch monitor
built into the handles of the stepper itself, or in a harness you wear. In either manual mode or
using any of the programs described earlier, the heart rate monitor merely gives you more
information-it lets you see your current heart rate at any time.

However, used with the 800S Stepper Heart Rate Control programs, this option lets you
design a workout tailored to your age and condition:

1. Get on the 800S Stepper.

2. Press one of the two HR Control program keys:

• The top key is the Constant HR program: it 

gradually builds to your target heart rate, then 
keeps you there.

• The bottom key is the Heart Rate Interval 

program: it alternates you between an 
upper heart rate target and a lower heart 
rate target.

If the 800S Stepper is set for "Step and Go" operation, the program will skip steps 3
and 4; it will use the default workout length and a weight setting of 150 pounds. If you
want to set the length and/or your correct weight, press the HR Control program key
before you get on the 800S Stepper.

3. The display will show the default workout length. You can change this using the up and 

down arrow keys, or use the keypad to type the number of minutes you want to work out. 
If you try to enter a time longer than the maximum for this the 800S Stepper, it won't 
accept your entry. Press Enter.

4. Enter your weight. The 800S Stepper uses this to calculate how many calories you burn 

during your workout, so be sure to allow for your clothing and shoes. In general, add 
about five pounds to your base weight to get an accurate reading. Again, either type the 
weight or use the arrow keys to raise or lower the value shown. Press Enter.

5. Type your age or use the up and down arrow keys to set it. Press Enter.

6. The display will show your target heart rate (based on your age) and the percentage of 

your maximum heart rate. Set the target heart rate you want for this workout and press 
Enter. For the Interval Heart Rate program, set the upper target rate, press Enter, then set
the lower target and press Enter again. 

7. Start stepping.

Over the first few minutes of your workout, the 800S Stepper will gradually build you up to
your target heart rate. For the Constant program, it will then keep you at this rate until the
cool-down at the end of the workout. For the Interval program, it will gradually
