Exercise to Your Target Heart Rate
A dedicated window displays your heart rate while you exercise. To
view your heart rate (beats per minute) on the display, either wear a
chest strap or grasp both touch-sensitive grips.
The Precor web site (www.precor.com) has several suggestions for
workouts with varying levels of intensity. It provides many workout
details that include the appropriate target heart rate.
The equipment includes one or more heart rate programs that let
you exercise based on a specified target heart rate. As you
exercise, the programs monitor your heart rate and automatically
maintain it within a few beats per minute of your selected target. To
use these programs, press the PROGRAMS – HEART RATE key.
For more information, refer to Programs.
Heart Rate Analysis
Every time you complete a program using the chest strap or
touch-sensitive grips, the display provides a heart rate analysis after
the workout summary. Refer to Ending a Workout.
Your average heart rate appears followed by the maximum heart
rate achieved during your workout. A third display appears, if you
entered your age, and indicates the amount of time your heart rate
remained between the target zones shown.
The heart rate analysis is based on how often your heart rate signal
is received while exercising. If you use the chest strap, the average
heart rate will be more accurate than if you occasionally grasp the
touch-sensitive grips.
