FITNESS TESTS
NOTE: The FITNESS TEST and FIREFIGHTER FITNESS TEST programs are available on the S-TRc and S-TRx treadmills only.
To operate the Fitness Test program:
The FITNESS TEST is a modified version of the Balke and Ware protocol for maximal VO2 treadmill testing. The original
Balke-Ware protocol is a 20-minute test with a maximum elevation of 20%. Since most users prefer an 8-12 minute test and
the STAR TRAC S SERIES TREADMILLS have a maximum elevation of 15%, the test has been modified to last 12
minutes with a maximum incline of 12%. This protocol is appropriate for all users, but is mostly used for older, deconditioned
or patient groups. During the FITNESS TEST, treadmill speed remains at a constant 3.4 mph. Treadmill incline is set at 0%
during the first minute, increases to 2% during the second minute, and increases by 1%-per-minute for the remainder of the
test. Your heart rate results are compared with charted data for your corresponding age and gender. Test results include
your calculated VO2 max. VO2 max is a physiological measurement of a body’s ability to absorb oxygen, and has specific
correlation to your fitness level.
NOTE: You must wear the heart rate strap during the FITNESS TEST to monitor your heart rate.
