NOTE: For best results, use a heart rate strap. If user is wearing a heart rate strap, the CrossTrainer will automatically use the
data from the heart rate strap.
To operate the Dynamic Heart Rate Control pro-
gram:
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 striding resistance. During the workout, this
cycle will repeat several times until the time goal is com-
plete, creating an interval training effect that is cus-
tomized to the user's desired heart rate training range.
During program setup, there must be at least an 20 BPM
difference 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 increases 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.
