  • Page 11: Heart Rate Zone Training® Exercise

    EART Research shows that exercising within a specific heart rate is the optimal way to monitor exer- cise intensity and achieve maximum results. That is the idea behind the Life Fitness Heart Rate Zone Training approach to exercise. Zone Training Exercise takes the guesswork out of working out by identifying specific ranges, or zones, in which to maintain a heart rate to achieve maximum exercise results according to goals.

  • Page 12: Heart Rate Monitoring

    ENSORS The patented Lifepulse digital heart rate sensors (A) are the built-in heart rate monitoring system on the Life Fitness 9500HR Cross-Trainer. To use the Lifepulse sensors (CT 9500HR), grasp the stainless steel sensors on the moving arms when the console displays the heart symbol, or at any time a heart rate reading is wanted.

    The result is a perfect workout every time, eliminating both under- and over-training. Concentration is cen- tered on the workout, because the Life Fitness product responds to the heart rate and adjusts the workout to maintain the target heart rate.
  • Page 17 ORKOUT The Life Fitness patented Hill workout offers the ideal configuration for interval training: periods of intense aerobic activity separated by regular intervals of lower-intensity exercise. The comput- erized interval training workout has been scientifically demonstrated to yield greater cardiorespi- ratory improvement than steady-pace training.
  • Page 18 ANDOM ORKOUT The Life Fitness on-board computer randomly selects hill and valley terrain which varies with each and every workout, resulting in more than one million combinations. Because workout lev- els are greater in this workout than in the Hill workout, it is recommended that the Random workout be set one or two levels lower than the workout level which would normally be selected in the Hill workout.
