WORKOUT STATISTICS
During the exercise program, the Stats keys are used to track workout statis-
tics which are then shown in the display window. Pressing the [SELECT] key
turns off the scanning feature and shows the statistic of choice in the display
window. Continue to press the [SELECT] key until you reach the desired
statistic. Pressing the [SCAN] key will prompt the console to cycle through the
following statistics:
•
Distance
(all machines)
- Provides a cumulative total of the equivalent
distance (in miles or kilometers), you would have traveled on level terrain at
the same relative intensity.
•
Calories/Hour (all machines)
- Provides a current calorie rate of energy
usage.
•
Length (5600 ESS)
- Provides the stride length in inches.
•
Rate (Steppers, 5600 ESS, 1650 LE) -
Displays the current steps (or strides
per minute.
•
Floors (Steppers)
- Displays the equivalent number of floors climbed with
an 8-inch step. There are 16 steps per floor, and 48 floors per mile.
•
Speed (5600 ESS, 3400 CE, & 3800 RC) -
Shows the equivalent speed in
miles per hour, (or kilometers per hour if your console is set to metric units).
•
Level
(all machines)
- Shows the current intensity level between 1 (the
easiest) and 20 (the hardest).
•
Watts
(all machines)
- Displays the exercise intensity in watts (746 watts =
1 horsepower).
•
METs
(all machines)
- Gives you the relative energy cost of exercise. MET
stands for multiples of the resting metabolic rate. While you are sitting quietly,
your body consumes oxygen at the rate of about 3.5 milliliters per kilogram of
body mass per minute. When you exercise, your body needs more oxygen in
order to function. For example, exercising at 10 METs requires ten times the
resting rate of oxygen consumption, or about 35 milliliters per kilogram per
minute. During a workout, this key shows the current MET level. During the
workout summary, the average MET level is displayed.
•
Target Heart Rate
(all machines)
- Available only during the Constant
Heart Rate program. Shows the selected target heart rate.
At the completion of a workout, the statistic averages are calculated based on
the accumulation of data during the workout program, and not including the
cool down period.
