Gluteal Program
The Gluteal Program, available by pressing the VARIETY key, is
designed to exercise the gluteal muscles. On the 532i, the ramp
incline is preprogrammed. Review the profile to determine the
ascent and descent levels of each program. Any changes to the
ramp incline affects the program’s profile. On the 534i, the ramp is
stationary, so changes to the resistance levels affect the profile.
Heart Rate Program
The Basic HRC Program, available by pressing the HEART RATE
key, lets you set a target for your heart rate. The program adjusts
the resistance to maintain your heart rate within two beats per
minute of the target heart rate while you exercise. To use this
program, you must enter your age and wear a chest strap so your
heart rate can be monitored throughout the session.
Important: Consult your physician to determine the appropriate
target heart rate for your age and fitness level. If your physician
recommends a different target heart rate than the one that appears
on the display, use the navigational arrow keys to change the
target heart rate once you finish the warm-up period. Do not
exercise over the recommended range.
Heart Rate Program Tips
The Basic HRC Program enhances your overall cardiovascular
fitness levels to help you achieve your weight loss and fitness
goals. Read through the following tips before selecting the Basic
HRC Program. These tips provide general information regarding
how the program functions. For more information and exercise
suggestions, refer to the Precor web site at www.precor.com.
Important: Maintain a rate of motion above the minimum
requirements. Refer to Self-Powered Features. Automatic
adjustments to the resistance cannot take place if you drop below
the minimum requirements for operation.

The program provides a 3-minute warm-up period. During this
time, you may change the resistance or CrossRamp settings
(532i only).
Note: When your target heart rate is achieved or the 3-minute
period elapses, the warm-up period ends and the program
begins.
The program automatically adjusts the resistance to keep your
heart rate at the selected target. After the warm-up period,
pressing the RESISTANCE keys no longer affects the
resistance levels. Check the SmartRate display to see if you are
maintaining your preferred zone. Check the HEART RATE
display to determine your actual heart rate. For information
about understanding your target heart rate, refer to Heart Rate
Features.
