the previous columns off the display.
Fitness Test Program
The Fitness Test measures the improvements of your physical fitness level. The test compares your power output (in Watts) to
your heart rate. As your fitness level improves, your power output will increase at a given heart rate.
Note:
The Console must be able to read the heart rate information from the Contact Heart Rate (CHR) sensors or Heart
Rate Monitor (HRM) to work correctly.
You can start the Fitness Test from the FEEDBACK category. The Fitness Test program first prompts you to select your fitness
level—Beginner ( “BEG” ) or Advanced ( “ADV” ). The Console will use the Age and Weight values for the selected User Profile
to calculate the Fitness Score.
Start to workout and hold the Heart Rate Sensors. When the test starts, the intensity of the workout slowly increases. This
means you will work harder, and as a result, your heart rate increases. The intensity continues to increase automatically until
your heart rate reaches the “Test Zone”. This zone is individually computed to be near 75 percent of the maximum heart rate
of your User Profile. When you reach the Test Zone, the machine holds the intensity steady for 3 minutes. This lets you reach
a stable condition (where your heart rate becomes steady). At the end of the 3 minutes, the Console measures your heart
rate and the power output. These numbers, along with information about your age and weight, are computed to produce a
“Fitness Score”.
Note:
Fitness Test scores should only be compared to your previous scores and not to other User Profiles.
Compare your Fitness Scores to see your improvement.
Heart Rate Control (HRC) Workout Programs
The Heart Rate Control (HRC) programs let you set a heart rate goal for your workout. The program monitors your heart rate
in beats per minute (BPM) from the Contact Heart Rate (CHR) sensors on the machine, and adjusts the workout to keep your
heart rate in the selected zone.
Note:
The console must be able to read the heart rate information from the CHR sensors for the HRC program to work
correctly.
The Target Heart Rate programs use your age and other User information to set the Heart Rate Zone values for your workout.
The console display then gives prompts for you to set up your workout:
1. Select the Heart Rate Control workout level: BEGINNER ( “BEG” ) or ADVANCED ( “ADV” ) and push OK.
2. Push the Increase(
) or Decrease(
) buttons to select the percentage of maximum heart rate: 50–60%, 60–70%,
70–80%, 80–90%.
Consult a physician before you start to exercise in the 80–90% heart rate zone.
