Over one million FIRST HR CHECK POINT (1) SECOND HR CHECK POINT (2) combinations are offered in an interval training format. Because the incline levels are changing more often, it is more difficultthan the Hill Profile program. As a result, it is recommended that the Random program be set one or two levels lower than normally selected during the Hill Profile program. Heart Rate Check Points: Check your heart rate after the first five minutes of exercise on the Random program and every five to ten minutes thereafter. This ensures that you are exercising within your THRR. - Manual This program provides steady-pace exercise with a fixed speed rate and incline level equal to that of the highest hill encountered on the Hill Profile program at the same level of intensity. Because of the greater effort levels of this program, it is recommended that you set the Manual program about three to four levels lower than the level of intensity that you would normally select on the Hill Profile Program. Heart Rate Check Points: Check your heart rate after the first five minutes of exercise on the Manual program and every five to ten minutes thereafter. This ensures that you are exercising within your THRR. You can also design your own interval training program using the Manual program by varying the level of intensity during the course of your workout. To do so, select a high level of intensity until you reach the upper end of your target heart rate range, then stride at a lower level of intensity until your heart rate drops to the bottom of yourTHRR. Then, increase the level of intensity until you reach your upper range heart rate again. By repeating this process, you will be simulating your own hills and valleys. Changing the Level of Intensity (Difficulty) In the Hill Profile, Random, and Manual programs, if your heart rate is above your TH RR, you should reduce your level of intensity by pressing the" T keys. If your heart rate is below your THRR, you should enter a higher number to increase the level of intensity. You should not change your workout intensity if your heart rate is within your THRR.
