HR SPEED: Program adjusts speed to bring to your target heart rate.
HR % SPEED: Program adjusts speed to bring 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 speed or incline will automatically adjust to bring you near your specified heart rate.
• The profile window shows your heart rate during exercise. The yellow 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 treadmill will adjust speed
or incline accordingly to bring you near your target.
• If there is no heart rate detected, the unit will not change the speed or incline.
• If your heart rate is 25 beats over your target zone the program will shut down.
