Fitness Tests Overview
The Cardio Trainer includes 2 fitness tests and 1 fitness protocol. Based on your specific age, gender, and performance they
calculate your fitness level. The Balke and the Firefighter Fitness Tests are heart rate controlled.
Balke Fitness Test (HRC: must use AccuTrack or Wireless Chest Strap)
Test Parameters
• Maximum Speed: 55 RPM
• Maximum Heart Rate: 80% of Maximum Heart Rate (see
Heart Rate
Monitoring )
Description
• It’s a heart rate controlled, walking pace, variable effort fitness test. The test
increases in difficulty in an effort to raise your heart rate to a target. Upon reaching your target heart rate, the test will
terminate and calculate a fitness assessment based on your performance (VO2 Max Score).
Firefighter (Gerkin) Fitness Test (HRC: must use AccuTrack or Wireless Chest Strap)
Test Parameters
• Maximum Speed: 60 RPM
• Maximum Heart Rate: 85% of Maximum Heart Rate (see
Heart Rate
Monitoring )
Description
• It’s a heart rate controlled, variable speed and effort fitness test. The test
increases in difficulty in an effort to raise your heart rate to a target.
Upon reaching your target heart rate, the test will terminate and calculate a
fitness level based on your performance (VO2 Max Score).
What is VO2 Max?
A person’s fitness level can be measured by the amount of oxygen his or her body can consume while exercising at maximum
capacity. VO2 Max is a measurement of the maximum amount of oxygen in milliliters an individual can use in one minute
per kilogram of body weight. For years, only fitness trainers and doctors had access to this intricate fitness calculation.
Fortunately, the Cardio Trainer not only takes care of all the complex VO2 Max calculations, but also gives you a simple
evaluation anyone can understand.
Scores may vary due to different line voltages, component tolerances, and individual’s affinity towards each test’s parameters.
For a more accurate VO2 Max calculation, take the average of the two scores (Balke and Firefighter Fitness Test).
Fitness Protocols:
Army 2-Mile Fitness Test
Description
These are hands free, complete as fast as you can
fitness assessment runs. Fitness Protocols come
equipped with Automatic Transmission software.
As you pedal faster to increase your speed, the elliptical will automatically increase the effort level yielding a faster
“running” (MPH) speed. Vice versa, when you slow down, the elliptical will automatically decrease effort level yielding a
slower “running” (MPH) speed. Upon completion you will receive an assessment score (0-100).
