Personal Trainer workouts are customized workouts designed either for the advanced user or to
be used in connection with a personal trainer.

1) W

ATTS

This workout targets a rate of effort equal to a certain number of Watts. A Watt is a unit of power
that measures the amount of mechanical work required to operate a device, such as a Life
Fitness Stairclimber. It is roughly equal to .25 calories per hour. The workout program automati-
cally alters the intensity level to maintain the appropriate rate of effort. 

2) MET

S

This workout targets a rate of effort equal to a certain number of METs. A MET is a unit of measure-
ment used to express the metabolic rate of work (oxygen consumption per unit of body weight)
required to perform a task. One MET is approximately equal to a person’s metabolism when seated
and relaxed.

ORKOUTS

These training programs are preset custom workouts created by the facility training professional. The work-
outs may be Level or Target Heart Rate workouts created for specific results. Each Custom Workout profile
may be viewed by pressing the View key and then a Custom Workout button. A screen showing the interval
and level profile for that Custom Workout will appear. Select Begin to start a workout using the displayed
profile or select the back arrow to return to the Custom Workouts screen. Consult the facility training pro-
fessional for details on individual Custom Workouts.

The Life Fitness Stairclimber permits a maximum stepping height of 13.5 inches, or 34.3 
centimeters. The unit features independent stepping action, which means that the pedals move
independently of each other. Benefits of this feature include:

•

Pull-push hip and knee action, which simulates actual stair climbing

•

Development of greater muscular strength and endurance

•

Optimal muscular development for the right leg and left leg individually

•

Better cardiovascular exercise

ORKOUTS

Begin stepping at a comfortable pace, taking either full or short steps, and keeping the back
straight. Hold the handrails or the bullhorns for stability and balance only. It should be noted that
using the handrails for support can offload weight and cause the Life Fitness Stairclimber console
to give inaccurate readings of calories burned.

ESISTANCE

The Life Fitness Stairclimber features speed-dependent braking resistance. During a workout, the
computer monitors the user's step rate and maintains it at the rate that corresponds to the selected
intensity level. If the user's speed exceeds the corresponding rate, the computer increases the 
resistance to lower the user's speed. If the user's step rate is slower, the computer decreases the
resistance to enable the user to increase speed.
