GOAL SETUP SCREENS
Goal Type: The default setting of Goal Type is TIME (length of workout) allowing the user to set a predeter-
mined length of time for the workout.
Users may also choose a more advanced Goal Type such as DISTANCE, CALORIES, PACE, or TIME IN ZONE
(only available for heart rate programs).
For Distance, Calories, Pace, and Time in Zone, the length of the workout depends on how long it takes to reach
the goal. The workout continues until the goal is met. To exit early, either choose COOL DOWN from the bottom
of the display to go immediately into the cool down phase, or choose CHANGE WORKOUT to access a different
program. For more information, see Section 4.2 titled Using the Workouts.
For information on how to set, and get maximum benefit from, these type of workout goals consult a Personal
Trainer. For further information on Zone Training, see Section 3.1 titled Why Heart Rate Zone Training Exercise?
Level: Choose the programmed resistance level of the workout. Levels range from 1 to 25 (0 to 25 with optional
external power supply).
Target Heart Rate*: (heart rate workouts only) Gives a recommended heart rate according to age. For Fat
Burn, the target heart rate is computed at 65% of the theoretical maximum
heart rate. For Cardio, the target
heart rate is computed at 80%. For more information on Target Heart Rate, see Section 3 titled Heart Rate Zone
Training Exercise.

Weight: Entering an accurate weight allows METs to appear on the Workout Screen.
Age: Allows heart rate programs to accurately determine target heart rate.
Gender: Used in the Fit Test prediction equation and associated fitness rating.
Defined by the American College of Sports Medicine's "Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription" as equal to 220 minus an individual’s age.
* Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the FAT BURN workout is 117. This workout targets 65 percent
of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.65=117.
