PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUTS
The Platinum Pro VR has six PERSONAL TRAINER workouts; three Interval courses and three Custom programs. The Hill, Speed and
Mixed Interval programs, each with nine levels, were designed to improve your aerobic capacity by varying the intensity, enabling you to
exercise harder, longer and burn more calories. The three CUSTOM programs give you the option to either create a personal program in
advance or to create a personal program as you workout.
During your workout, you will be alerted to any speed and/or incline changes in the program with a series of visual and audible prompts.
The current speed and or incline will flash to indicate a change. The new speed and/or incline will then be displayed.
To be certain you are receiving the maximum benefit from your workout, wear your wireless chest strap transmitter and activate the
HeartSmart™ Pulse Monitoring System. The heart rate training zone in which you are currently exercising will be displayed on the Heart
Rate Zone bar in the PROFILE display window. For details, refer to the HEARTSMART™ PULSE MONITORING SYSTEM section in this
manual.
