Selecting a workout program on your Life Fitness aerobic trainer is easy. Seven
computerized aerobic workouts, including the exclusive Fat Burn, Cardio and Fit Test
programs, are preprogrammed on your Lifecycle exercise bike:
QUICK START, the fastest way to begin exercising, allows you to immediately
start a manual program.
FAT BURN is a Heart Rate Zone Training™ program designed to burn an optimum
amount of calories from fat by automatically maintaining a target heart rate of 65%
of your theoretical maximum heart rate.
CARDIO is a Heart Rate Zone Training™ program designed to increase
cardiovascular fitness by automatically maintaining a target heart rate of 80% of
your theoretical maximum heart rate.
MANUAL maintains a constant effort level based on the goals you have selected.
RANDOM is a program of varying effort levels which occur randomly with each
exercise session, resulting in more than one million workout combinations.
HILL is an interval training workout consisting of a warm-up period followed by a
plateau of constant effort, progressively more difficult levels of effort (hills)
separated by periods of recovery (valleys) and a cool-down period.
FIT TEST is a way of measuring the aerobic fitness level of an individual
compared to others of the same age and gender.
