is set to zero by default. Change the level using the INCLINE ARROW key. Change the speed using the
SPEED key, up or down as desired. For METs, Watts, Calories Burned/Calories per Hour to be computed

ues.

MANUAL
The MANUAL program is a constant effort workout in which the user can change resistance level or speed at
any time.
R
ANDOM
The RANDOM program creates a terrain of hills and valleys that varies with each workout. More than one
million different patterns are possible.
FAT BURN
The FAT BURN workout is designed to maintain a users heart rate at 65 percent of the theoretical maximum
(HRmax) for optimal results. Throughout the workout, the user wears a chest strap or grasps the Lifepulse sen-
sors. If the user is not wearing a chest strap, the WORKOUT PROGRESS SCREEN displays a heart shape, and
the Message Area prompts the user to grasp the sensors. The console continuously monitors and displays the
heart rate, adjusting the intensity level of the treadmill to reach and maintain the target* (See note below). This
system eliminates over- and under-training, and it maximizes the aerobic benefits of exercise by using the body's
fat stores for fuel.
Defined by the American College of Sports Medicine's "Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription" as equal to 220 minus
an individual’s age.
* Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum (HRmax). A 40-year-old user's recommended THR for the
FAT BURN workout is 117, or 65 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.65 = 117.
