FITNESS LEVEL TEST:
The FITNESS LEVEL TEST is based on YMCA Protocol Standards which are provided as a tool to evaluate your fitness
level. During exercise, the muscles convert oxygen into the fuel needed for the muscles to do the required work. The harder
you workout, the more oxygen the muscles need. The oxygen is delivered to the muscles by the cardiovascular or blood
system. The harder you workout, the faster your heart beats to maintain the oxygen supply to the muscles. As your fitness
level improves, your muscles become more efficient and therefore do not require as much oxygen as before. This means
your heart does not have to beat as fast as before to do the same amount of work.
A heart rate monitoring device must be used for this test. The equipment provides a standard handgrip pulse on the moving
handle bar to sense the user’s heart beat during the workout. Pulse detection can be confirmed by observing the top LED
light on the TARGET HEART RATE display as well as the PULSE display on the MODE-1 window. If your heart rate
exceeds 95% of your maximum target rate the test will terminate. The Target Heart Rate calculation is as follows:
(220 – user age) x %
A 35 year old user needs to reach a minimum of 50% of their TARGET HEART RATE.
Which means: (220 - 35) x 50% = 93 bpm (Beats per minute)
When the console is in POWER ON status, press the FITNESS LEVEL TEST program button. The Dot Matrix will display a
scrolling “TEST”. Press the ENTER button to select the program then the Dot Matrix will show “ENTER AGE”.
