Advanced – Athlete. Beginner workouts are workouts designed for users just starting to workout or just starting a work-
out routine. Beginner workouts have limited gradual intensity adjustments. Experienced workouts are designed for users
seeking a more challenging workout. These users should have a stronger fitness base. Advanced workouts are designed
for athletes training for cardiovascular endurance and special events.
Different workouts have different setup steps. This section provides details on the steps themselves.

speed for the respective key pressed. While in this MANUAL workout, the user may at any time toggle between the
three pre-programmed speeds: Walk (2 mph / 3.2 kph), Jog (4 mph / 6.4 kph), and Run (6 mph / 9.7 kph). The target
heart rate will not be displayed during a QUICK START workout.
