You will then be prompted in the alphanumeric display to “PRESS
START”. “FITNESS TEST” will display confirming your selection. You can
now begin the Fitness Test.
The program begins at level 1. The program will automatically adjust to
bring you into a pre-determined “Test Zone” based upon an estimated
maximum heart rate. Once you are in the “Test Zone” the resistance level
will remain constant. The Time clock will begin to count down from 3:00.
During the last 30 seconds, the console will record the average watts, and
the average heart rate and generate a “Fitness Score”.
It is important to keep your RPM’s steady for the whole 3:00 minutes to
help maintain a steady heart rate.
The Fitness Test is an excellent way to measure changes in your own fitness
level. It is not designed to be used to compare one person’s score to
another person’s score. This is because the test protocol only “estimates”
your “Maximum Heart Rate.”
***Please note: The Fitness Test program is a special program that
requires un-interrupted exercise. After the initial Fitness Test program set-up,
certain button functions become inoperative after starting the program:
