NOTE: For best results, use a heart rate strap. If user is wear-
ing a heart rate strap, the TOTAL BODY TRAINER will auto-
matically use the data from the heart rate strap.
This heart rate feature is designed to gradually elevate your
heart rate to the upper end of your selected training range,
then gradually decrease your heart rate to the lower end of
your selected training range by dynamically controlling strid-
ing resistance. During the workout, this cycle will repeat sev-
eral times until the time goal is complete, creating an interval
training effect that is customized to the user's desired heart
rate training range.
During program setup, there must be at least an 20 BPM dif-
ference between the lower heart rate limit and upper heart
rate limit to ensure an interval workout.
By including interval exercise in your regular aerobic program, greater effects are noticed. Your heart and muscles will adapt to the increas-
es in demand by utilizing stored calories for energy more effectively. Dynamic Heart Rate Control may potentially result in more calories
expended. It will strengthen the heart, provide stress relief and variety to a workout. This program is more effective in training the body to
remove excess lactic acid from the muscles.
