H.R.C. program
: H.R.C. programs are based off of user profile information. Heart rate
control programs are designed to keep you training at your chosen heart rate level. Console will
adjust the resistance level automatically to ensure the target heart rate is achieved and maintained
during the entire program.
Your target heart rate, the intensity needed to improve cardiovascular fitness, depends primarily on
your age and not your state of fitness. It is calculated as a percentage of your maximum heart rate,
estimated as 220 minus your age. It is most effective to train at your target heart rate between 60%
and 85% of your maximum heart rate. In order to get the most accurate reading, it is recommended
to enter your age before your workout.
Note: A heart rate monitoring device must be used for the program to work. For better results, a
chest strap is recommended for this operation. It is also important to consult your physician before
performing any Heart Rate based training program.
