ZONE TRAINING + Zone Training workouts target specific ranges, or zones, for maintaining a
heart rate to achieve maximum exercise results.
HEART RATE HILL
TM
takes the user through three different hills based on the target heart
rate*. The user wears a heart rate chest strap, or grasps the Lifepulse
TM
sensors continuously.
HEART RATE INTERVAL
TM
alternates between a hill and a valley based on the target heart
rate*. The user wears a heart rate chest strap, or grasps the Lifepulse
TM
sensors continuously.
EXTREME HEART RATE
TM
is an intense workout for more experienced users. It is
designed to get the heart rate up and down as quickly as possible. The user wears a heart
rate chest strap, or grasps the Lifepulse
TM
sensors continuously.
FAT BURN is a low-intensity workout for burning the body’s fat reserves. The user wears a heart rate
chest strap, or grasps the Lifepulse
TM
sensors continuously. The program adjusts the intensity level
through changing the incline (elevation), based on the actual heart rate, to maintain the rate at 65
percent of the theoretical maximum
†
.
CARDIO is a higher intensity workout for more fit users, emphasizing cardiovascular benefits
and maximum fat burning. The user wears a heart rate chest strap, or grasps the Lifepulse
TM
sensors continuously. The program adjusts the intensity level, based on the actual heart rate, to
maintain the rate at 80 percent of the theoretical maximum.
FITNESS TESTS
LIFE FITNESS FIT TEST measures cardiovascular fitness and can be used to monitor
improvements and endurance every 4-6 weeks.
ADDITIONAL FITNESS TESTS are similar to the FIT TEST workout, except that these pro-
grams are based upon specific predefined protocols. The available tests are:
• ARMY PHYSICAL FITNESS TEST (PFT) - (U.S. MILITARY)
• NAVY PHYSICAL READINESS TEST (PRT) - (U.S. MILITARY)
• MARINES PHYSICAL FITNESS TEST (PFT) - (U.S. MILITARY)
• AIR FORCE FITNESS TEST (PRT) - (U.S. MILITARY)
• GERKIN PROTOCOL - (INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FIRE FIGHTERS)

20
* Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum (HRmax). For example, a 40-year-old user's recommend-
ed THR for the FAT BURN workout is 117. The FAT BURN workout targets 65 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be
(220-40)*.65=117.
