FITNESS TEST

The Fitness Test is a custom-made submaximal test designed to measure cardio-respiratory fitness.
Maximal oxygen uptake (VO
up, distributed and used by the body during physical activity. Testing one's VO
evaluate their fitness level.
For the submaximal test, the user is challenged to reach 80% of their maximum heart rate through
gradual increases in both speed and incline. Once the 80% maximum heart rate threshold is reached
the treadmill will automatically stop and the computer will extrapolate the user's VO
the speed and incline levels achieved. In order to obtain a more accurate reading it is very important
to carefully follow the instructions during the program.
NOTE – Users must wear a heart rate chest strap. Cardio-respiratory fitness is a combination of
cardiovascular fitness and respiratory fitness. Always keep in mind that this test is submaximal, so
the results are only to be used as a guide.
Fitness Test Protocol:
• Warm Up = 3 mph (4.8 km/h) for 3 mins, 0% incline
• Test begins with speed at 4.5 mph (7.2 km/h), 0% incline
• Every odd minute, incline will increase by 2%
• Every even minute, speed will increase by 0.5 mph (0. km/h)
• Test concludes when heart rate exceeds and stays above the target heart rate for 15 seconds.
• Cool Down = 3 mph for 3 mins, 0% incline (May be skipped by pressing the STOP key).
NOTE: If the STOP key is pressed before 80% of the Max HR is achieved then the test will be
deemed invalid and no score will be displayed.
