HEART RATE PROGRAM OPERATION
To start the HR program, follow the instructions below.
1. Using the Program button, choose the HR program (65% or 80%), then press the Enter key.
2. The Dot Matrix Message Center will ask you to enter your Age. You may enter your Age, using the
Up/Down keys, then press the Enter key to accept the new number and proceed on to the next
screen.
3. You are now asked to enter your Weight. You may adjust the Weight number using the Up/Down
keys, then press Enter to continue.
4. Next is Time. You may adjust the Time and press Enter to continue.
5. Now you are asked to adjust your Target Heart Rate. This is the heart rate level you will try to
maintain during the program. Adjust the value and then press Enter.
6. Now you are finished editing the settings and can begin your workout by pressing the Start key.
You can also go back and modify your settings by pressing the Enter key. Note: At any time during
the editing of data, you can press the Stop key to go back one level or screen.
7. If you want to increase or decrease the resistance at any time during the program, press the Level
Up/Down key. This will allow you to change your target heart rate at any time during the program.
8. The program will automatically increase or decrease the amount of resistance, depending on
whether your heart rate is above or below your target.
If you enter your age during programming, the console will perform this calculation automatically.
Entering your age is used for the Heart Rate programs. After calculating your MHR, you can decide
upon which goal you would like to pursue.
The two most popular reasons for, or goals, of exercise, are cardiovascular fitness (training for the
heart and lungs) and weight control. The black columns on the chart represent the MHR for a person
whose age is listed at the bottom of each column. The training heart rate, for either cardiovascular
fitness or weight loss, is represented by two different lines that cut diagonally through the chart. A
definition of the lines' goal is in the bottom left-hand corner of the chart. If your goal is cardiovascular
fitness or if it is weight loss, it can be achieved by training at 85% or 60%, respectively, of your MHR on
a schedule approved by your physician. Consult your physician before participating in any exercise
program.
With all Spirit Fitness machines, you may use the heart rate monitor feature without using the Heart
Rate program. However, when using the heart rate monitor feature in conjunction with the Heart Rate
programs, the machine will automatically adjust speed or incline to maintain the desired heart rate.
