Cardiovascular Zone
When you maintain your heart rate between 70% and 85% of your maximum
aerobic heart rate, you are improving your overall cardiovascular/cardiorespira-
tory fitness level. Maintaining your heart rate in either zone (weight loss or cardio-
vascular) for 30 minutes or more on a regular basis (minimum three times a week)
provides the greatest benefits.
MANUAL MODE AND THE QUICKSTART
Manual mode lets you determine the ramp incline and set the resistance level. As
with other courses, when you complete the time limit set for the course, the
automatic cool-down period begins.
You can choose Manual mode in two different ways:
• pressing the QuickStart key at the Precor banner. QuickStart bypasses the
remaining selections and starts the Manual course. Default values
include a time limit of 30 minutes (or the Club setting, whichever is smaller),
150 lbs. (68 kg.) and an age of 0. The SmartRate
• pressing Enter at the Precor banner. This causes the EFX to display several
Setup prompts. At the course prompt, select #1 — Manual course.
The Manual course profile initially appears as a flat line. Use the
numeric keys to adjust ramp incline and the resistance level. (See page 28 for more
information.) As you proceed with your workout, a blinking column represents your
position on the course.
