i) Use Resting Heart Rate during RMR Test. Heart rate is not a
required data point for administering a resting test. It can be a
helpful additional reference when trying to determine if the client
is in a steady state during their test.
j) Click or tap the Save button. Cancel exits the menu without
saving.
k) Restore All Defaults resets ALL settings to factory defaults. Note
that this does NOT remove previously entered data such as
equipment settings, groupings, trainers, locations, and clients.
Equipment Interface
It is recommended that exercise equipment be set up prior to the first
test. Any type of cardio equipment that allows a graded exercise test to
take a client to a maximum heart rate may be used. Most VO2
assessments are performed using a treadmill or stationary bike
(ergometer), but other types of exercise equipment may be used with the
CardioCoach PRO. The exercise protocols provided by KORR were
designed for use with treadmills and ergometers and may not be
appropriate for other exercise devices. That said, some customers have
used CardioCoach PRO units with equipment other than treadmills and
ergometers (such as rowing devices and climbing machines), but it is up
to you to create a graded protocol that is consistent for the best results
to suit your needs.
Any treadmill or ergometer can be used with the CardioCoach PRO by
manually adjusting the resistance/speed/incline of the exercise
equipment, as directed by the CardioCoach software.
