STRIDES: Shows the total number of strides completed. The number will always
be even since two strides create one complete revolution of the flywheel. A
stride is an exaggerated walking movement. On the EFX
®
, if you start in a
position with one foot forward and one foot back, a stride is completed when you
move the rear foot all the way forward while the forward foot moves to the rear.
STRIDES PER MINUTE: Displays your current pedaling speed.
CALORIES: Provides the cumulative number of calories being burned.
TIME REMAINING: Indicates the amount of time, in minutes and seconds
(mm:ss), that remain in the course. When you enter a cool down period, the
Time Remaining resets to 5 minutes, and begins counting down from there.
Note: If a course has no designated time limit (the club has set the Workout
Time Limit as “No Limit”) and you input 0 using the numeric keys at the
Enter Time prompt), then the Time Remaining field does not appear. See
Club
Information
on page 16.
DISTANCE: The distance that you have travelled appears when you select this
feature. Distance appears in 100th mile increments and can also appear in
kilometers. (See
Club Information
on page 16.) The number shown in the dis-
play is not a conversion of strides, but relates closely to the user’s expenditure
of energy. The energy level is derived from the user’s current MET’s value and
converted to an equivalent linear distance.
WATTS: Indicates the amount of energy the EFX is currently expending.
CALORIES PER MINUTE: Indicates the approximate number of calories being
burned per minute.
SEGMENT TIME: In the Manual or preprogrammed courses, this display indi-
cates the amount of time, in minutes and seconds (mm:ss) that remains in the
highlighted column (or segment) of the course profile before the cell at the top
of the next column begins blinking. If the course being used is Cross Training,
Interval, or Weight Loss, then the number appearing in this display indicates
the amount of time that remains in the current interval.
RESISTANCE: Displays the amount of resistance being applied to the foot
pedals. The Resistance and keys let you set a resistance between 1 and
20 which affects the amount of resistance applied by the brake. Once a course
is begun, you can also use the numeric keys to designate the resistance.
Refer to Numeric Keys on page 24.
Note: You can check the resistance (when it is not the chosen display) any
time during your workout by lightly pressing either Resistance or key for
less than 2 seconds. Pressing the Resistance or key for more than 2
seconds causes the resistance level to change.
METS: Displays the metabolic units associated with your workout.
