This section lists the Life Fitness stairclimber pre-programmed workouts. For more detailed infor-
mation, see Section 4.2, titled Using the Workouts .
QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising, and it bypasses the steps of selecting a
specific workout. Once the QUICK START key is pressed, a constant-level workout begins. The
intensity level does not change automatically.
HILL is an interval-training workout combining “hills” and “valleys” of different intensity levels,
which is proven to provide effective, time-efficient cardiovascular results.
RANDOM is an interval training workout of constantly changing intensity levels that occur in no
regular pattern or progression to challenge the user.
MANUAL is a workout in which the intensity level does not change automatically.
SPORT TRAINING simulates the experience of running up and down stairs.
EZ RESISTANCE features a gradual, subtle increase in resistance, lowering perceived exertion.
A peak in resistance is followed by an equally subtle decrease in resistance.
FAT BURN is a lower-intensity workout for burning the body’s fat reserves. The user must wear
a Polar heart rate chest strap. The workout automaticaly adjusts the intensity level, based on the
actual heart rate, to maintain the rate at 65 percent of the theoretical maximum.
†
CARDIO is a higher intensity workout for more fit users, emphasizing cardiovascular benefits
and maximum fat burning. The user must wear a Polar heart rate chest strap. The workout auto-
maticaly adjusts the intensity level, based on the actual heart rate, to maintain the rate at 80 per-
cent of the theoretical maximum.
HEART RATE HILL consists of three hills that target three heart rate goals: The first hill brings the
heart rate to 90 percent of the target rate*. The second hill increases the rate to 95 percent. The
third hill matches the target heart rate. The valley always is defined as 85 percent of the target. The
user must wear a Polar heart rate chest strap.
HEART RATE INTERVAL alternates between a hill, which brings the heart rate up to the target rate,
and a valley, which brings the heart rate down to 90 percent of the target. The user must wear a
Polar heart rate chest strap.
EXTREME HEART RATE alternates between two target heart rate goals as quickly as possible. The
effect is similar to that of running sprints. The user must wear a Polar heart rate chest strap.
MY WORKOUTS is not a workout program but a feature that allows the user to pre-set up to seven
workouts with personal setup information, such as age, time duration, or level, and then store the
workouts in the console memory. These workouts are accessed with an ARROW key. See Section
4.4, titled My Workouts Personal Programs , for information on setting up and using these workouts.

* Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the HEART
RATE HILL workout is 144. This workout targets 80 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.80=144.
A 20-year-old user’s THR is 160, so the equation would be (220-20)*.80=160.
