HOW THE PACE PROGRAMS OPERATE
When you use a
pace program, two
columns of bars will
appear in the upper
display. The left col-
umn represents a
target pace, and the
right column shows
your actual exercise
pace. The target pace will change periodically during
the program; as the target pace changes, simply
adjust your pace to keep both columns at the same
height. Important: The target pace is a goal pace.
Your actual pace may be slower than the target
pace, especially during the first few months of
your exercise program. Be sure to exercise at a
pace that is comfortable for you.
The three graphs
on the console
show how the target
pace will change
during the
programs. During
the Aerobic
program (program 2), for example, the target pace will
gradually increase during the first half of the program,
and gradually decrease during the last half of the pro-
gram. Each program will last for twenty minutes.
