    CHAPTER 3 - LET’S CLIMB So far, we’ve discussed what the facility owner needs to do to get the ClimbMax ready to use. This chapter describes how to use it; what each climber can do to get the most out of his or her ClimbMax workout.
  • Page 15: Your Workout

    Page 10 Chapter 3 - Let’s Climb When climbing, you should have a smooth, stair-climbing action. The pedals should not hit the floor at the bottom of each stroke, or their upper limit at the top of the stroke. If they do, either climb faster or adjust the ClimbMax’s speed setting as described later in this chapter.

  • Page 20: Chapter 4 - The Heart Rate Program

    CHAPTER 4 - THE HEART RATE PROGRAM As an option, the ClimbMax includes a heart rate monitor harness you can wear during a workout to continuously monitor your heart rate. In either manual or program mode, the heart rate monitor merely gives you more information—it lets you see your current heart rate at any time.
  • Page 21 Page 16 Chapter 4 - The Heart Rate Program While you’re climbing, the fields at the top of the console show statistics about your workout. For details about this display, see the section “The Workout Display,” in Chapter 3. The workout graph shows a horizontal line representing your target heart rate.
