HEART RATE TRAINING

The first step in knowing the right intensity for your training is to find out your maximum heart rate (max HR = 220 – your age).

The age-based method provides an average statistical prediction of your max HR and is a good method for the majority of people, especially those new to heart rate training. The most precise and accurate way of determining your individual max HR is to have it clinically tested by a cardiologist or exercise physiologist through the use of a maximal stress test. If you are over the age of 40, overweight, have been sedentary for several years or have a history of heart disease in your family, clinical testing is recommended. This chart gives examples of the heart rate range for a 30-year-old exercising at 5 different heart rate zones. For example, a 30-year-old’s max HR is 220 – 30 = 190 BPM and

90% max HR is 190 × 0.9 = 171 BPM.

TARGET HEART RATE : Automatically adjusts resistance to maintain your target heart rate. Perfect for simulating the intensity of your favorite sport or everyday activity. Time-based goal.

1) Select Target Heart Rate program and press ENTER.

2) Select TIME using and press ENTER.

3) The HEART RATE window will flash showing the default target heart rate of 80 beats per minute. Select your target heart rate (from the chart above) using and press START to begin program.

NOTES:

• Target heart rate is selected in multiples of 5 beats.

• The large LED dot matrix window displays your heart rate during exercise. The middle row represents your target heart rate (THR) and the other rows equal +/-2 heartbeats. If you are working out beneath your THR, the LEDs below the middle row will illuminate. If you are over, the LEDs above the middle row will illuminate. Your current heart rate is represented by the flashing column and the window will refresh every 5 seconds.

• There is a warm-up built into this program.

• After the warm-up, the resistance will automatically adjust to bring your heart rate within 5 beats of the target number you selected at the beginning of the program.

• If there is no heart rate detected, the unit will not change resistance levels up or down.

• If your heart rate is 25 beats over your target zone, the program will shut down.

SPRINT 8® : The Sprint 8 program is an anaerobic interval program designed to build muscle, improve speed, and naturally increase the release of human growth hormone (HGH) in your body. Producing HGH through exercise and a proper diet has been shown to be an effective way to burn fat and build lean muscle mass, according to Phil

Campbell, author of Ready, Set, Go! Synergy Fitness. Please go to Mr. Campbell’s website,

www.readysetgofitness.com, for more details about this efficient new approach to fitness.

1) WARM-UP should gradually increase your heart rate and increase respiration and blood flow to working muscles. The warm-up is controlled by the user to meet your specific needs.

minute and 30 seconds will alternate with the eight 30-second sprint intervals. The message display will prompt you to increase your RPMs during the sprint interval and decrease RPMs during the recovery interval. A difference of 30 to 50 RPM between sprint interval and recovery interval is recommended for bikes. A difference of 20 to 30 RPMs between sprint interval and recovery interval is recommended for elliptical trainers.

appropriate cool-down is used following the exercise.

In order to keep track of each segment/interval, the segment time is counted down in the timer. It takes only 20 minutes to complete the Sprint 8 workout.

CONSTANT WATTS : This workout automatically adjusts the resistance to keep you within a set watts range and maintains your desired level of exercise intensity.

GOAL PROGRAMS : A series of workouts that allow you to select a specific goal that you would like to achieve.

ELLIPTICALS:

5K : A workout with a fixed distance of 5 kilometers (3.1 miles). Resistance is adjusted automatically throughout the workout.

10K : A workout with a fixed distance of 10 kilometers (6.2 miles). Resistance is adjusted automatically throughout the workout.

BIKES:

20K : A workout with a fixed distance of 20 kilometers (12.4 miles). Resistance is adjusted automatically throughout the workout.

30K : A workout with a fixed distance of 30 kilometers (18.6 miles). Resistance is adjusted automatically throughout the workout.

CALORIES GOAL : A workout that allows you to select a specific number of calories you would like to burn during your workout.

Increasing the calorie goal of the workout will increase the duration of the workout based on your speed and resistance.

Estimated time to complete is shown in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen.

DISTANCE GOAL : A workout that allows you to select a specific distance you would like to travel during your workout.

Increasing the distance goal of the workout will affect the duration of the workout based on your speed. Estimated time to complete is shown in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen.

TARGET HEART RATE PROGRAMS : A workout designed to keep you in your specified target heart rate zone.

This workout requires you to wear a wireless heart rate strap. See below for calculating your target heart rate.

TARGET HEART RATE : Program adjusts resistance to bring you to your target heart rate.

HR % : Program adjusts resistance to bring you to your desired % maximum heart rate.

The first step in knowing the right intensity for your training is to find out your maximum heart rate (max HR = 220 – your age). The age-based method provides an average statistical prediction of your max HR and is a good method for the majority of people, especially those new to heart rate training. The most precise and accurate way of determining your individual max HR is to have it clinically tested by a cardiologist or exercise physiologist through the use of a maximal stress test. If you are over the age of 40, overweight, have been sedentary for several years or have a history of heart disease in your family, clinical testing is recommended.

This chart gives examples of the heart rate range for a 30-year-old exercising at 5 different heart rate zones. For example, a 30-year-old’s max

HR is 220 – 30 = 190 BPM and 90% max HR is 190 × 0.9 = 171 BPM.

TARGET HEART RATE NOTES:

• Warm-up and cool-down each last 5 minutes.

• After 5 minutes, the resistance will automatically adjust to bring you near your specified heart rate.

• The profile window shows your heart rate during exercise. The green line represents your target heart rate (THR) and the red line represents your current heart rate. If you are working out beneath your THR, the machine will adjust resistance accordingly to bring you near your target.

• If there is no heart rate detected, the unit will not change the resistance.

• If your heart rate is 25 beats over your target zone, the program will shut down.
