that you have already entered, press RESET, and then
reenter the information.
Note: You can press QUICKSTART after any of the

entry). QUICKSTART applies existing preferences from
the previous workout to any prompts you skipped.

to change the resistance and ramp incline (EFX5.17i and
EFX5.21i).
7. Maintain a constant stride rate while exercising. Find a
comfortable stride rate between 100 and 150 strides per
minute.
Cooling Down After a Workout
Incorporate a cool-down period into your workout to help
lower your heart rate and minimize muscle stiffness and
soreness.
When you complete a program with a time limit, you
automatically enter a 5-minute cool-down period. The Manual
(MANL) program profile appears in the display. To change
the resistance or ramp incline (moveable ramp units only),
press the arrow keys.
A workout summary appears at the end of the 5-minute cool-
down period. See Ending a Workout.
Important: If you press QUICKSTART or enter a time of
NOLIM, the automatic 5-minute cool-down period does not
occur. If you exit a program before completing it, the cool-
down period is also bypassed.
To prematurely end the 5-minute cool-down period do the
following:
1. Grasp the stationary handrail with one hand.
2. Press RESET with your other hand to view the workout
summary.
3. Press RESET again to return to the Precor banner.
