Max HR
Target HR
TARGET HEART RATE: % Maximum Target Heart Rate (%THR) automatically
adjusts resistance to bring you within 5 beats of your set % of maximum heart
rate. Target Heart Rate (THR) automatically adjusts resistance to maintain your
target heart rate. These workouts require you to wear a wireless heart rate strap.
The first step in knowing the right intensity for your training is to find out your
maximum heart rate (max HR = 220 – your age). The age-based method provides
an average statistical prediction of your max HR and is a good method for the
majority of people, especially those new to heart rate training. The most precise
and accurate way of determining your individual max HR is to have it clinically
tested by a cardiologist or exercise physiologist through the use of a maximal
stress test. If you are over the age of 40, overweight, have been sedentary for
several years, or have a history of heart disease in your family, clinical testing
is recommended. This chart gives examples of the heart rate range for a
30-year-old exercising at 5 different heart rate zones. For example, a 30-year-
old's max HR is 220 – 30 = 190 bpm and 90% max HR is 190 × 0.9 = 171 bpm.

Target heart rate notes:
• Warm-up and cool-down each last 4 minutes.
• After 4 minutes, the resistance will automatically adjust
to bring you near your specified heart rate.
• If no heart rate is detected or signal is lost, the resistance will remain at
the same level for 60 seconds and then begin decreasing 1 resistance
level every 10 seconds until the minimum resistance is reached.
• If your heart rate is 25 beats over your target zone the program will shut down.
