Heart Rate Programs
HEART RATE CONTROL (HRC) PROGRAMS
HRC programs are time based programs where time can vary between 5 - 99 minutes. You can select your target
heart rate and modify by using the center “+ / -” buttons. HRC programs require the use of the Contact Heart Rate
Grips or the Wireless Heart Rate Chest Strap (optional).
When in an HRC program, the resistance will automatically vary based upon your heart rate. While your hands
remain on the grips the HRC programs will make resistance adjustments to keep you within your target heart rate. If
you release the grips the HRC programs will not make any resistance adjustments until you place your hands on the
grips again.
HRC training allows you to maximize your workout performance while minimizing your workout time.
You may manually override the resistance at any time during your workout using the resistance arrows. The
program continues to make automatic adjustments based on your heart rate.
HEART RATE CONTROL
Time based program with effort levels that are automatically controlled by the software. All effort level changes,
although automatic, are being driven by your heart rate in an effort to maintain it near or at your target heart rate
which was entered during set-up.
INTERVAL HEART RATE
Identical to Heart Rate Control with the exception that it targets two different heart rates alternately during the
workout. During set-up you will be able to select the value of both targets.
- Enter the high heart rate using the “+ / -” buttons. High heart rate can vary from 100 - 255 beats per
minute (bpm).
- Choose the duration of high heart rate which varies from 30 - 180 seconds.
- Enter your low heart rate using the “+ / -” buttons. Low heart rate can vary from 50 - 99 bpm.
- Choose the duration of the low heart rate which can vary from 30 - 180 seconds.
- Choose the total amount of intervals varying between 1 and 100.
