Weight Loss Course; Goal-Based Courses - Precor C954 Owner's Manual

THE WEIGHT LOSS COURSE
The Precor Weight Loss course incorporates the latest findings on fat-burning and
weight loss through exercise. It is based on research at the world-renowned Cooper
Institute for Aerobics Research and it is designed to help you burn the most fat
during a 28-minute workout, while minimizing the risk of discomfort and injury. The
Weight Loss program is similar to the Heart Rate Course, but the target heart rates
differ. The rest interval's target heart rate is preset to 55% of (220 - your age), while
the work interval is preset to 70% of (220 - your age). The C956 automatically
adjusts the incline of the treadmill and maintains your heart rate settings while in
the rest or work intervals.
Note: For the C956 to detect a heart rate, the user must wear the POLAR
chest strap or hold onto the touch-sensitive electrode strips on the handrail.
The POLAR
that can be purchased from your dealer.
To use the Weight Loss program, follow the steps found in Quick Steps to
Working Out on page 30. When the Course prompt appears, choose the ap-
propriate course number. Refer to the course label to the side of the display.
Important: During your workout, you can change the incline, but doing so will
cause the effectiveness of the Weight Loss program to vary.
Note: When you complete the time limit set for the course, the automatic cool-
down period begins.

GOAL-BASED COURSES

These C956 courses are similar to the time-based Manual course except that the
user's position and course duration are based on a "distance" or "calorie" goal.
Note: A club time limit may exist for these courses. Refer to Club Information
on page 20.
When you complete the time limit set for the course, the automatic cool-down
period begins.
