Choosing a Program
Choosing a program depends on your goals. If you are a
beginner or returning to regular exercise, you can start a
cardio-conditioning program to slowly return your body to a
comfortable level of exercise. If you have been exercising and
feel that you have an intermediate or advanced fitness level,
you probably have established goals. The Precor web site
(www.precor.com) can give you many ideas about fitness
workouts and advice from the experts.
Several workout choices on the EFX are preprogrammed
with recommendations for incline levels or resistance,
backward or forward motion, and alternating rest or work
intervals. You always have the option to override the
suggested levels with the exception of the Heart Rate
Control (HRC) program.
If your level of exertion becomes too great, reduce your
stride rate or use the arrow keys to override each upcoming
column in the program profile. If you use the arrow keys,
the program profile changes accordingly. When you
complete a program that contains a time, an automatic
5-minute cool-down period begins.
