display, if the console is set to HIDE PROGRAMS in the
Settings menu.
The Fitness Test, available by pressing the PERFORMANCE
key, provides a means of comparing your fitness level with the
official fitness test of the International Association of
Firefighters (IAFF). It is written using the Gerkin Protocol,
which is the basis for the official IAFF fitness test and part of
their Wellness and Fitness Initiative.
During the test, the equipment gradually increases the incline
and speed in specific stages. The keypads are disabled.
Whatever stage you are at when the test ends determines
your aerobic capacity and establishes your VO
2
max. Once
you complete the test, a fitness score appears as part of the
workout summary.
