XTREME EART ATE
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 possible. The effect is similar to that of running
sprints. The user must wear a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap or grip the Lifepulse
workout.
Note:
When setting up the workout, the user enters a target heart rate and selects a walk speed and a jog speed. After a stan-
dard three-minute warm-up, the treadmill accelerates to the jog speed, and the incline increases, until the user reaches
the target heart rate goal of 85% of the theoretical maximum
riod. Then, the incline is reduced to 0%, and the treadmill slows to the walk speed. When the heart rate falls to the 65%
of HRmax goal, it is maintained there for a stabilizing period. The program repeats the alternating of speeds and incline
levels, continuing this pattern throughout the duration.
If the user does not reach a heart rate goal after five minutes, the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to increase or
decrease speed, depending on whether the workout is in a hill or valley phase. The program does not proceed to a new
heart rate goal until the user reaches the current goal.
