    The RANDOM program creates a terrain of hills and valleys that varies with each workout. More than one million differ- ent patterns are possible. The Life Fitness-patented HILL workout offers a variety of configurations for interval training. Intervals are periods of intense cardiovascular exercise separated by regular periods of lower-intensity exercise. The CLASSIC PROFILE WIN- DOW represents these high and low intervals as columns of light, which together have the appearance of hills and val- leys.
  • Page 28 1 to 9 minutes: A workout with a duration of less than 10 minutes is insufficient for the HILL program to complete all four phases adequately. The program, therefore, condenses a workout of this duration at various stages. 10 to 19 minutes: The interval durations initially are set at 30 seconds for a 10-minute workout. For every minute over 10, each interval increases by three seconds.
  • Page 29 EART ORKOUTS FAT BURN is a low-intensity workout for burning a higher percentage of calories from fat. The user must wear a heart rate chest strap or grasp the Lifepulse system sensors continuously. The workout program automatically adjusts the intensity level, based on the actual heart rate, to maintain the rate at 65 percent of the theoretical maximum ARDIO CARDIO is a higher intensity workout for more fit users, maximizing cardiovascular benefits and total calories burned.
  • Page 30: Extreme Heart Rate

    EART NTERVAL This program also combines the standard HILL workout profile with the concept of Heart Rate Zone Training. The default target heart rate* is calculated as 80 percent of the theoretical maximum target rate during the workout setup. The workout alternates between a hill, which brings the heart rate up to the target rate of 80 percent of HRmax, and a valley, which brings the heart rate down to 65 percent of HRmax.
  • Page 31 ORKOUTS The Life Fitness patented HILL + workouts give even more ways to vary interval training. Based on the same principles as the CLASSIC HILL workout, Hill + workouts are customized to resemble different locations/training scenarios to add variety and challenge to Hill workouts.
