The PowerWalk program combines high resistance/short stride and lower
resistance/long stride intervals in order to closely simulate the feel of hiking
uphill and downhill. Each interval is two minutes long. The low resistance/long
stride interval is great for lower-body full range of motion. The high resistance
short stride session decreases leg activity while putting intense strength-building
requirements on the upper body. Begin the program by entering the long and
short stride lengths and the high resistance level. The default level is 5, but
you can increase or decrease it by pressing the Level (/) buttons. The
initial low resistance/long stride interval level equals the high resistance/short
stride minus 4 levels (low resistance/long stride interval = high resistance/short
stride level – 4 levels). During the workout, the level and stride lengths can be
independently changed for the interval by pressing the Stride (/) and Level
(/) buttons. However, the lower level cannot be set above the higher level,
and the higher level cannot be set below the lower level. Changed settings apply
for the remainder of the workout (unless you change them again).
The Stride Interval program alternates shorter stride intervals and longer stride
intervals. Each interval is two minutes long. Resistance remains constant during
the workout. Begin the program by entering the lengths of the long and short
strides and the resistance level. During the workout, the stride length and/
or resistance intervals can be changed for the interval by pressing the Stride
(/) and Level (/) buttons. However, short stride cannot be longer than
the long stride, and low resistance cannot be higher than high resistance.
Changed settings apply for the remainder of the workout (unless you change
them again).
