  • Page 27 The Time in Zone goal enhances a heart rate workout by setting a certain duration within the target heart rate* as a workout goal. The program automatically alters the resistance to maintain a pace that will meet that objective within that duration. Once the objective is met, the workout automatically goes into a Cooldown Phase.

  • Page 32 The Life Fitness-patented HILL workout offers a variety of configurations for interval training.

The WORKOUT PROFILE window represents these high and low intervals as columns of light, which together have the appearance of hills and valleys.
  • Page 33 Interval Training phase. This pattern repeats until the workout is completed. The Life Fitness patented HILL PLUS workouts give even more ways to vary interval training. Based on the same principles as the HILL workout, Hill Plus workouts are customized to resem- ble different locations/training scenarios to add variety and challenge to Hill workouts.
  • Page 34 RAINING Zone Training workouts target specific ranges, or zones, for maintaining a heart rate to achieve maximum exercise results. EART This program 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 (HRmax), but the user can adjust the target rate during the workout setup.
  • Page 35 2) H 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 maxi- † (HRmax), but the user can adjust the 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 36 3) E XTREME EART This intense, varied workout is designed to help more experienced users to break through fitness improvement plateaus. The workout alternates between two target heart rates* as quickly as possi- ble. The effect is similar to that of running sprints. The user must wear a chest strap or grip the Lifepulse sensors throughout the workout.
  • Page 37 4) P ERSONAL RAINER Personal Trainer workouts are customized workouts designed either for the advanced user or to be used in connection with a personal trainer. 1) W ATTS This workout targets a rate of effort equal to a certain number of Watts. A Watt is a unit of power that measures the amount of mechanical work required to operate a device, such as a Lifecycle Recumbent Bike.
  • Page 38 The Lifecycle Recumbent Bike Fit Test program is another exclusive feature of this versatile exercise bike. The Life Fitness Fit Test measures cardiovascular fitness and can be used to monitor improvements in endurance every four to six weeks. The user must grasp the hand sensors when prompted or wear a heart rate chest strap, as the test score calculation is based on a heart rate reading.
  • Page 39 The computer will not accept: heart rates less than 52 or greater than 200 beats per minute body weights less than 75 pounds (34 kg) or greater than 400 pounds (182 kg) ages below 10 or over 99 years data input that exceeds human potential If an error is made when entering any Fit Test data, correct it by pressing CLEAR, inputting the correct information, and pressing ENTER.
