User Manual
This program is based on 2 insights of medicine and sport science that
are essential for training success:
• Each human has a specific maximum heart rate.
• Depending on the targeted goals training will be at between 50 % an 85 %
of the maximum heart rate .
A common method to calculate the maximum heart rate is:
220 – age = maximum heart rate
The focus of your training determines the percent of maximum heart
rate to use in the workout sessions. The percent values follow the chart
below:
• 50 – 60 %: easy endurance
• 60 – 70 %: optimal training zone
• 70 – 80 %: performance increase
• 80 – 85 %: training for competition (anaerobic)
• above 85 %: critical zone
HR Control Program 60 % (P 10)
Program 10 (HR Control Program 60 %) calculates 60 % of the users maximum
heart rate and uses this value as target heart rate to adjust the resistance
during the work out . Choose this program if you would like to train at 60 % of
your maximum heart rate .
HR Control Program 75 % (P 11)
Program 11 (HR Control Program 75 %) calculates 75 % of the users maximum
heart rate and uses this value as target heart rate to adjust the resistance
during the work out . Choose this program if you would like to train at 75 % of
your maximum heart rate .
HR Control Program 85 % (P 12)
Program 12 (HR Control Program 85 %) calculates 85 % of the users maximum
heart rate and uses this value as target heart rate to adjust the resistance
during the work out . Choose this program if you would like to train at 85 % of
your maximum heart rate .
Training at 85 % of your maximum heart means you are
training at an anaerobic level and close to the critical zone.
Only serious athletes should train at this level.
User Program (P 13)
This program allows the user to create and store a custom workout program .
Each one of the 10 time/resistance columns can be selected separately . With
this the resistance for each increment of time can be defined .
