offers both a Dynamic Heart Rate Control program and a Constant Heart Rate Control program.
NOTE:
For best results, use a heart rate strap. If user is wearing a heart rate strap, the Total Body Trainer will automatically use the data
from the heart rate strap.
To operate the Dynamic Heart Rate Control program:
This heart rate feature is designed to gradually elevate your
heart rate to the upper end of your selected training range,
then gradually decrease your heart rate to the lower end of
your selected training range by dynamically controlling strid-
ing resistance. During the workout, this cycle will repeat
several times until the time goal is complete, creating an
interval training effect that is customized to the user’s
desired heart rate training range.
During program setup, there must be at least an 20 BPM dif-
ference between the lower heart rate limit and upper heart
rate limit to ensure an interval workout.
By including interval exercise in your regular aerobic pro-
gram, greater effects are noticed. Your heart and muscles
will adapt to the increases in demand by utilizing stored
calories for energy more effectively. Dynamic Heart Rate
Control may potentially result in more calories expended. It
will strengthen the heart, provide stress relief and variety to
a workout. This program is more effective in training the
body to remove excess lactic acid from the muscles.

To calculate your training zone, use the following formulas:
(theoretical max HR = 220 - Age)
Heart Rate Training Range Upper Level
_____________________x 0.75 =
___________________________
Your Theoretical Max
Training Range Upper Limit
Heart Rate Training Range Lower Level
_____________________x 0.60 =
___________________________
Your Theoretical Max
Training Range Lower Limit
NOTE:
Calculating your theoretical maximum heart rate using
age is an approximation. For more information, please contact a
fitness professional or doctor.
