3 Hill Workout (Experienced – Fit)

Access: This workout can be started by using the navigation keys

to scroll to the Hill workout profile and pressing Enter.

Description: The Life Fitness patented hill workout is an interval

training workout. Intervals are periods of intense aerobic exercise.

The workout profile window displays the levels of the intervals,

which together have the appearance of hills and valleys.

Resistance and incline adjustments are used to simulate the

hills/valleys and speed is controlled by the user.

The hill workout has two main phases that are in between the

warm-up and cool-down.

1 Plateau: Increases the intensity slightly and keeps

it steady, to bring the heart rate to the low end of the

target zone.

2 Interval Training: Is a series of increasingly

steeper hills, alternating with valleys, or periods of

recovery. The heart rate should rise to the high end of the

target zone during this segment.

Goal: The computerized interval training workout has been

scientifically demonstrated to promote greater cardio-respiratory

improvement than steady-pace training. The goal of this workout is to

improve cardiovascular endurance and break through fitness plateaus.
