20
Workload Resistance
Resistance level
Octane Fitness PRO310 has 20 discrete levels of resistance. Level 1 is the
easiest and level 20 is the most difficult. The Manual program and Quick Start
allow the user the ability to totally control the resistance level. The Interval
and Custom Interval programs allow the user to select the resistance level for
individual intervals.
The resistance level is represented by rows of LEDs in the matrix display. Each
row that is lit represents 2 resistance levels.
Program level
The Octane Fitness Random and 10K programs allow the user to select an
overall resistance level for the program. This level is the average resistance
level for the workout. The range of resistance levels during these workouts
are +/–4 of the entered program level (i.e., For program Level 5, minimum
resistance is Level 1 and maximum resistance is Level 9). During the workout,
the overall program resistance level is displayed on the console.
Resistance in Heart
Rate Controlled
Programs
These programs (Fat Burn, Cardio, Heart Rate Interval, Heart Rate Custom
Interval, and Heart Rate Speed Interval) allow the user to manually enter the
target heart rate level for the program. If the target HR is reached during the
warm-up, the warm-up ends and the selected heart rate control program begins.
The resistance level during the heart rate controlled workout is controlled by
the machine, increasing or decreasing as necessary to keep the user’s heart
rate on target.
