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 approach to exercise.
HeartSync identifies an exerciser's ideal heart rate range, or zone, for burning fat or increasing cardiovascular fitness.
The values within the zone depend on the workout. The Life Fitness Treadmill features five exclusive workouts designed
to take full advantage of the benefits of HeartSync exercise: FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILLTM, HEART RATE
INTERVALTM, and EXTREME HEART RATETM. Each workout offers different benefits, as discussed in Section 4, titled
The Workouts.
NOTE: Consulting a fitness trainer is recommended for defining specific fitness goals and designing a workout program.
All HeartSync workouts measure heart rate. Wear a telemetry chest strap to
enable the treadmill's on-board computer to monitor the heart rate during a
workout. The computer automatically adjusts the incline level to maintain the
target heart rate based on the actual heart rate.
