PRESET PROGRAMS
The Elliptical has five different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts. These five
programs have factory preset work level profiles for achieving different goals.
Hill
The
Hill
program simulates going up and down a hill. The resistance in the pedals will steadily
increase and then decrease during the program.
WORK
INCLINE
Fat Burn
The
Fat Burn
program is designed, as the name implies, to maximize the burning of fat. There are
many schools of thought on the best way to burn fat but most experts agree that a lower exertion level
that stays at a steady workload is the best. The absolute best way to burn fat is to keep your heart rate
at around 60% to 70% of its maximum potential. This program does not use heart rate but simulates a
lower, steady exertion workout.
WORK
INCLINE
Cardio
The
Cardio
program is designed to increase your cardiovascular function and endurance. This is
exercise for your heart and lungs. It will build up your heart muscle and increase blood flow and lung
capacity. This is achieved by incorporating a higher level of exertion with slight fluctuations in work.
WORK
INCLINE
Strength
The
Strength
program is designed to increase muscular strength in your lower body. This program will
steadily increase in resistance to a high level and forces you to sustain it. This is designed to
strengthen and tone your legs and glutes (muscles of the butt).
WORK
INCLINE
Interval
The
Interval
program takes you through high levels of intensity followed by periods of low intensity.
This program increases your endurance by depleting your oxygen level followed by periods of recovery
to replenish oxygen. Your cardiovascular system gets programmed to use oxygen more efficiently this
way. This program also forces your body to become more efficient due to spikes in heart rate, between
recovery periods. This aids in heart rate recovery from intense activities.
