To operate the D
YNAMIC HEART RATE CONTROL
program:
This heart rate feature is designed to gradually elevate
your heart rate to the upper end of your selected training
range, then gradually decrease your heart rate to the
lower end of your selected training range by varying
treadmill speed and incline. During the workout, this
cycle will repeat several times until the time goal is
complete, creating an interval training effect that is
customized to the user’s desired heart rate training range.
During program setup, there must be at least an 18 BPM
difference between the lower heart rate limit and upper
heart rate limit to ensure an interval workout.
By including interval exercise in your regular aerobic program, greater effects are noticed. Your heart and muscles will adapt to
the increases in demand by utilizing stored calories for energy more effectively. Dynamic Heart Rate Control may potentially
result in more calories expended. It will strengthen the heart, provide stress relief and variety to a workout. This program is
more effective in training the body to remove excess lactic acid from the muscles.

from 1 to 99 minutes.
To calculate your training zone, use the following formulas:
(theoretical max HR = 220 - Age)
Heart Rate Training Range Upper Level
_____________________x 0.75 = ___________________________
Your Theoretical Max Training Range Upper Limit
Heart Rate Training Range Lower Level
_____________________x 0.60 = ___________________________
Your Theoretical Max Training Range Lower Limit
NOTE: Calculating your theoretical maximum heart rate using age
is an approximation. For more information, please contact a fitness
