Press Level (/) to increase or decrease the resistance level of the machine.
There are 20 levels of resistance for preset resistance programs and the 30:30
fitness number program. For heart rate controlled programs, the Level button
increases your target heart rate. (For more information on heart rate programs,
go to page 10). To save a change in target heart rate, you must hit Enter after
entering the desired number.
Used for heart rate programs. Entering an age will give a recommended target
heart rate based on the formula 220 – your age = your theoretical maximum
heart rate (TMHR). That number is then multiplied by the program intensity value
to determine your target heart rate(s). If you are not in a heart rate controlled
program, but want to see your heart rate percentage, just enter your age. For more
information, refer to page 37, "What should my heart rate be?".
Press Weight (/) to increase or decrease the value for user weight. This
value is used to give a more accurate calorie burn readout. Weight is displayed in
pounds (English) or kilograms (metric). Use the User Set-up function (described on
page 31) to change the display from one to the other.
Selects any of the changed values or items from the above keys. Also, pressing
the Enter key during any workout will stop the LED readout windows from toggling
between display modes.
Press the Fan button to initiate a cool breeze to help keep you comfortable as you
workout. Press again to increase the airflow (two additional levels), or a fourth
time to turn it off. Move the vent as desired to direct the airflow.
SmartStride automatically replicates natural movement by analyzing and measuring
an exerciser's pace and direction and intuitively adjusting stride length in 1-inch
(2-centimeter) increments from 18 inches (46 cm) to 26 inches (66 cm). Press the
SmartStride button and the machine will analyze your speed and make the appropriate
adjustments as your pace or direction changes. Size-based programming, described
on pages 26 and 33, allows you to set the starting forward stride length that best
fits your leg length and fitness level. To deactivate SmartStride, simply push the
SmartStride button a second time.
ArmBlaster is a proprietary program designed to boost cardiovascular endurance
while building strength and muscle tone. Press the ArmBlaster button at any
time during your workout to integrate cardio sessions with strength sessions. The
cardio session follows the program profile that you have selected. Every minute
resistance increases 10 levels from where you are currently working (or to the
maximum resistance of 20) for a muscle-building, 10-repetition set as you transfer
the workload from your lower body to your upper body. During the ArmBlaster rep
countdown, the level of resistance can be changed by pressing the any Up Arrow
() or Down Arrow (). To deactivate ArmBlaster, simply press the ArmBlaster
button a second time.
