5 - Warm up. At the beginning of an HRC workout, the 

treadmill is in full Manual control mode. Gradually 

increase your work level to slowly raise your heart 

rate to within 10 beats per minute (bpm) of your 

target heart rate.

6 - Heart rate control stage. Now the treadmill takes 

control of speed and incline, keeping your heart rate 

within a few bpm of your target. If you are using 

interval HRC, the treadmill alternates between work 

and rest intervals.

7 - Cool-down. At the end of your workout time or 

distance, the treadmill reduces workload by half and 

goes back into Manual control mode, where you 

directly control your cool-down.

 

Your treadmill can remember more than one workout 

setup for a heart rate control workout. The Z5 has 

two time-based target HRC setups; the Z5.4 has five 

target and two interval HRC setups; and the Z5.5 has 5 

target, 5 interval, and 4 distance-based HRC setups. It 

stores each set of workout parameters under numbered 

workouts, e.g., "Target HR 1," "Target HR 2," "Interval 

HRC 1," etc. You can select these in later workouts so 

you don't have to re-enter your workout parameters, 

which tend to stay the same from workout to workout.

 

During workout setup, if you keep pressing 

you will continue to scroll through the workout setup 

parameters. You can press 

 at any time to accept 

the current parameters and begin your workout.
