Cooling Down After a Workout
Incorporate a cool-down period into your workout to help lower your
heart rate and minimize muscle stiffness or soreness.
When you complete a program with a time limit, you automatically
enter a cool-down period. The Manual Program profile appears in
the display and resistance reduces by 20%. To change the ramp
incline or resistance, press the arrow keys.
A workout summary appears at the end of the cool-down period.
See
Ending a Workout .
Important: If you specify an unlimited workout time, remember to
incorporate a cool-down period at the end of your workout. If you
exit a program before completing it, the cool-down period is
bypassed.
To prematurely end the cool-down period, do the following:
1. Grasp a stationary handrail with one hand.
2. Continue pedaling and press RESET with your other hand to
view the workout summary.
3. Press RESET again to return to the Precor banner.
Pausing During a Workout or the
Cool-Down Period
If you stop pedaling anytime during a workout or during a cool-down
period, the EFX begins a 30-second shutdown. You cannot pause
for more than 30 seconds unless the facility has the optional power
adapter attached to the unit.
When the optional power adapter is attached, you can pause for a
set time, usually two minutes. If you do not resume pedaling during
that time, the display returns to the banner.
1. To pause, stop pedaling.
2. To resume exercising from pause mode, begin pedaling.
