spRInT 8®

: The Sprint 8 program is an anaerobic interval program designed to build muscle, improve speed, and 

naturally increase the release of human growth hormone (HgH) in your body. Producing HgH through exercise 
and a proper diet has been shown to be an effective way to burn fat and build lean muscle mass, according to Phil 
Campbell, author of 

Ready, Set, Go! Synergy Fitness

. Please go to mr. Campbell’s website, 

www.readysetgofitness.com

, for more details about this efficient new approach to fitness.

1)  WARm-uP should gradually increase your heart rate and increase respiration and blood flow to working muscles. The warm-up 

is controlled by the user to meet your specific needs.

2)   INTERVAL TRAININg starts immediately after the warm-up with a 30-second sprint interval. Seven recovery intervals of one 

minute and 30 seconds will alternate with the eight 30-second sprint intervals. The message display will prompt you to increase 
your RPms during the sprint interval and decrease RPms during the recovery interval. A difference of 30 to 50 RPm between 
sprint interval and recovery interval is recommended for bikes. A difference of 20 to 30 RPms between sprint interval and 
recovery interval is recommended for elliptical trainers.

3)   COOL-dOWN helps return your body’s systems to resting levels. Less demand is placed on your heart during recovery if an 

appropriate cool-down is used following the exercise.

In order to keep track of each segment/interval, the segment time is counted down in the timer. It takes only 20 minutes to complete 
the Sprint 8 workout.
