Programmable Features - SOLE f60 Owner's Manual

PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES

The F60 has ten built-in programs: one Manual program, five preset profiles, two user defined programs
(U1 & U2) and two Heart Rate programs (HR1 & HR2).
Hill
The Hill program simulates going up and down a hill. The workload will steadily increase and then
decrease during the program.
Fat Burn
The Fat Burn program is designed, as the name implies, to maximize the burning of fat. There are many
schools of thought on the best way to burn fat but most experts agree that a lower exertion level that stays
at a steady work- load is the best. The absolute best way to burn fat is to keep your heart rate at around
60% to 70% of its maximum potential. This program does not use heart rate but simulates a lower, steady
exertion workout.
Cardio
The Cardio program is designed to increase your cardiovascular function and endurance. This is exercise
for your heart and lungs. It will build up your heart muscle and increase blood flow and lung capacity. This
is achieved by incorporating a higher level of exertion with slight fluctuations in work.
Strength
The Strength program is designed to increase muscular strength in your lower body. This program will
steadily increase in workload to a high level and forces you to sustain it. This is designed to strengthen and
tone your legs and glutes (muscles of the butt).
Interval
The Interval program takes you through high levels of intensity followed by periods of low intensity. This
program increases your endurance by depleting your oxygen level followed by periods of recovery to
replenish oxygen. Your cardiovascular system gets programmed to use oxygen more efficiently this way.
This program also forces your body to become more efficient due to spikes in heart rate, between recovery
periods. This aids in heart rate recovery from intense activities.
