Cardio; Manual - Life Fitness Lifecycle upright 9500HR Operation Manual

The Hill diagram below shows the effort level and recovery periods encountered during a
Hill workout. Effort and recovery periods are simulated on the display console by columns of
lights in the Program Profile window. The columns move from right to left during the
workout. The higher the column, the greater the resistance; consequently, you must
increase your effort.

time indicated to make sure you are staying within your target heart rate zone.
