For the ideal "weight loss" range, your heart rate should be between 55% and 70% of
your maximum aerobic heart rate. It should never exceed 85% of your maximum
aerobic heart rate or go above your target zone. Refer to Diagram 20 for your appro-
priate target zone.
When you maintain your heart rate between 70% and 85% of your maximum
aerobic heart rate, you are improving your overall cardiovascular/cardiorespira-
tory fitness level. Maintaining your heart rate in either zone (weight loss or cardio-
vascular) for 30 minutes or more on a regular basis (minimum 3 times a week)
provides the greatest benefits.

MANUAL MODE AND THE QUICK START KEY

Manual mode (C956 and C954) lets you control the incline and running belt speed
which affects the effort you put into your workout. As with other courses, when you
complete the time limit set for the course, the automatic cool-down period begins.
You can choose Manual mode in two different ways:
• pressing the Quick Start key at the Precor banner. Quick Start bypasses
the remaining selections and starts the Manual course. Default values
include a time limit of 30 minutes (or the Club setting, whichever is smaller),
150 lbs. (68 kg.) and an age of 0. The Smart Rate
