Research shows that maintaining a specific heart rate while exercising is the optimal way to monitor the intensity of a workout and to achieve maximum results. That is the idea behind the Life Fitness Heart Rate Zone Training® approach to exercise. Zone Training identifies an exerciser's ideal heart rate range -or zone- for burning fat or increasing cardiovascular fitness.

Dry your hands, and grasp the sensors again until your heart rate seems accurate. If this does not work, you may need to slow the machine to get an accurate reading. On treadmills, Life Fitness recommends -for safety and accurate heart rate readings- that you stand on the siderails when attempting to monitor your heart rate with the sensors.
The Track Connect console has 15 specially designed, pre-programmed workouts (the T5 treadmill has 17) that have been developed by Life Fitness. Each workout has a different goal. Read the workout descriptions carefully so that you can develop a workout routine that focuses on reaching your specific goals.

The patented hill workout is an interval training workout. Intervals are periods of intense aerobic exercise. The workout profile window displays the levels of the intervals, which have the appearance of hills and valleys. Incline adjustments are used to simulate the hills and valleys. You control the speed . The hill workout has two main phases between the warm-up and cool down.

Finally, the third hill increases intensity until your heart rate reaches 80% of your heart rate maximum. 80% is then held for one minute followed by the final valley that will keep your heart rate at 65%. At the end of the duration of hills and valleys, the workout enters a cool down phase.
