H.R.C. (Heart Rate Control) Programs
Overview.
The HRC category contains four (4) programs which allow the user to select their desired
heart rate target. The console will provide messaging and feedback while automa cally increasing
or decreasing the pedaling resistance to maintain the speci
fi
ed heart rate. This is the de
fi
ni on of
heart rate control. The console will increase the resistance one level every thirty (30) seconds if the user’s heart rate is below the
target. If the user’s heart rate exceeds the target, the console will beep and the resistance will be reduced one level every
fi
een
(15) seconds un l the user’s heart rate falls below the target. To protect the user, the console will beep and shut down if the
heart rate does not fall below the target a er thirty (30) seconds have elapsed.
Three (3) of the programs target a percentage of the user’s calculated maximum heart rate (see the sec on tled Calculated
Maximum Heart Rate & Target Training Zone). The calculated maximum heart rate formula considers age to arrive at an upper
threshold, or maximum. The user will be required to supply their age informa on for these programs to operate correctly. The
computer then determines which heart rate represents 55%, 70% and 90% of the user’s calculated maximum.
