TYPES OF WORKOUT SETUP SCREENS
GOAL SETUP SCREENS
• Goal Type: The default setting of Goal Type is TIME (length of workout.) Allows the
user to set a predetermined length of time for the workout.
Users may also choose a more advanced Goal Type such as DISTANCE, CALORIES,
MARATHON MODE, or TIME IN ZONE (only available for heart rate programs).
For Distance, Calories, 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 COOLDOWN from the Bottom Console to go immediately into the
Cooldown Phase, or choose CHANGE WORKOUT to access a different program. For
more information, see Section 4.2 Using the Workouts, Selecting a Goal Type.
Marathon Mode is an un-timed workout. The workout will continue until ended by the
user.
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 of Heart Rate Zone Training titled Why Heart Rate Zone Training Exercise.

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
