Fitness Test (FITN)

FITN
The Fitness Test Program provides a 5-minute test. You
cannot adjust the resistance or ramp incline levels. When
you complete the test, the display provides a fitness score
and fitness category.
The Fitness Test measures the maximum amount of oxygen
(V0 max) the body can use for energy production during
2
exercise. The higher the amount of oxygen that your body
can use enhances your ability to exercise for prolonged
periods of time. The test results can help you gauge the
effectiveness of your current exercise routine and tailor it to
meet your fitness goals.
