Preset Programs
The elliptical has five different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts.
These five programs have factory preset work level profiles for achieving different goals.
Hill
Resistance: This program follows a triangle or pyramid type of
gradual progression from approximately 10% of maximum effort
(the level that you chose before starting this program) up to a
maximum effort which lasts for 10% of the total workout time,
then a gradual regression of resistance back to approximately
10% of maximum effort.
Fat Burn
Resistance: This program follows a quick progression up to the
maximum resistance level (default or user input level) that is
sustained for 2/3 of the workout. This program will challenge your
ability to sustain your energy output for an extended period of
time.
Cardio
Resistance: This program presents a quick progression up to near
maximum resistance level (default or user input level). It has
slight fluctuations up and down to allow your heart rate to elevate,
and then recover repeatedly, before beginning a quick cool down.
This will build up your heart muscle and increase blood flow and
lung capacity.
Strength
Resistance: This program has a gradual progression of resistance
up to 100% of maximum effort that is sustained for 25% of
workout duration. This will help build strength and muscular
endurance in the lower body and gluts. A brief cool down follows.
Interval
Resistance: This program takes you through high levels of intensity
followed by recovery periods of low intensity. This program utilizes
and develops your “Fast Twitch” muscle fibers which are used
when performing tasks that are intense and short in duration.
These deplete your oxygen level and spike your heart rate,
followed by periods of recovery and heart rate drop to replenish
oxygen. Your cardiovascular system gets programmed to use
oxygen more efficiently.
