3 HEART RATE ZONE TRAINING EXERCISE
3.1 WHY H
EARTSYNC™ 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 HeartSync™ zone training approach to
exercise.
Zone training identifies an exerciser's ideal heart rate range, or
zone, for burning fat or increasing cardiovascular fitness. The val-
ues within the zone depend on the workout.
NOTE: Consulting a fitness trainer is recommended for defining spe-
cific fitness goals and designing a workout program.

* Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the CARDIO workout is 144.
This workout targets 80 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.80=144.
