3.1 WHY HEART RATE
ZONE TRAINING
®
EXERCISE?
Research shows that maintaining a specific heart rate while exercising is the optimal way to
monitor the intensity of a workout and to achieve maximum results. That is the idea behind the
Life Fitness Heart Rate Zone Training® approach to exercise.
Zone Training identifies an exerciser's ideal heart rate range, or
zone, for burning fat or
increasing cardiovascular fitness.
NOTE: Consulting a fitness trainer is recommended for defining
specific fitness goals and designing a workout program.
Wear a telemetry chest strap to enable the treadmill's on-board
computer to monitor the heart rate during a workout.
