Using Smartrate - Precor TRM 211 Quick Start Card

Using SmartRate

The SmartRate feature helps you monitor and maintain
your heart rate in the target zone best suited to your
specific needs.
After you begin a workout, a blinking bar appears on
the SmartRate display. The blinking bar indicates the
current zone of your heart rate.
Important: To use the SmartRate feature, you must
choose a program and enter your age during the setup
phase of your exercise session.
The following table shows the percentages used in
calculating the heart rate target zones. While your
heart rate remains within these zones, the
corresponding bar blinks and provides a visual cue.
The calculation used to determine your maximum
aerobic heart rate is (220 minus your age). When you
multiply it by the percent indicated in the table, you
can understand the relationship between the blinking
SmartRate bar and your target heart rate.
