on Interval
HRC
• Pressing any key other than
or will exit HRC
mode.
• Adjust your target heart rate at any time during your
workout by pressing
, using the
keys as
needed, and pressing
again. If you are lowering
your target, you are limited to a 5 bpm change.
• The time and distance accumulated during warm up
are not counted against your selected workout time or
distance; those values start at zero when the treadmill
reaches heart rate control mode. This time and
distance are accumulated into the workout summary
data, as is your cooldown exercise.
• Interval HRC works just like constant heart rate
control up through the first work interval.
• When your workout reaches your first rest interval,
your workload is reduced by half, and kept at this rate
throughout the rest interval.
• The next work interval is initially set at an average of
the workloads in the previous work interval.
