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 the difficulty level. During the work-
out, this cycle will repeat several 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 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. Interval 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.
