Exercise To Your Target Heart Rate; Heart Rate Analysis - Precor LOW-IMPACT TREADMILLS 9.33 Owner's Manual

Exercise to Your Target Heart Rate

A heart rate receiver is an integral part of the display so you
can monitor your heart rate while exercising. You must wear a
chest strap if you are using the 9.31 treadmill. If you own a
9.33 treadmill, you have the option of wearing a chest strap
or grasping both touch-sensitive grips. Your heart rate (beats
per minute) appears on the display.
The Precor web site (www.precor.com) has several
suggestions for workouts with varying levels of intensity. It
provides many workout details that include the appropriate
target heart rate.
The 9.31 treadmill includes one program that lets you
exercise based on a specified target heart rate. The 9.33
treadmill contains two: Basic HR and Weight Loss HR. As
you exercise, the heart rate programs monitor your heart rate
and automatically maintain it within a target heart rate zone.
To use these programs, press the PROGRAMS - HEART
RATE key. Refer to Table 2. For more information, refer to
Programs.

Heart Rate Analysis

Every time you complete a program using the chest strap or
9.33 touch-sensitive grips, the treadmill provides a heart rate
analysis after the workout summary.
Your average heart rate appears followed by the maximum
heart rate achieved during your workout. A third display
appears, if you entered your age, and indicates the amount of
time your heart rate remained between the target zones
shown.
The heart rate analysis is based on how often your heart rate
signal is received while exercising. If you use the chest strap,
the average heart rate will be more accurate than if you
occasionally grasp the touch-sensitive grips on the 9.33
treadmill.
