Ending a Workout
Some preset workouts have a five minute cool down period
added to the end of the workout. .
Cooling down is an important aspect of your workout because
it helps reduce muscle stiffness and soreness by transporting
excess lactic acid out of the working muscles. In addition, a
five minute cool down period allows your heart rate to return
to its normal, resting state.
To end your workout, touch Pause, and then Finish. A
summary screen for your current workout appears. The
measurements include:
Distance
Calories
Duration
Average movement rate/min (or the appropriate measure
based on equipment type)
Average Heart Rate
If you have created a personal account, you can save your
workout so that you can use it again at another time. To
create a personal account, contact the facility staff.

such as calories or watts.

Workout.
A Workout Progress panel appears on the screen.
2. In the panel, touch Duration to enter how much time you
want to exercise.
