INTERVAL COURSE
The interval course on the EFX lets you select the rest and work intervals according
to your training regimen. You set the incline and resistance levels for first rest and
work interval and the software repeats the intervals throughout the course. At any
point during the workout, you can change the settings of the current interval by
simply pressing the appropriate ▼▲ keys. The software remembers the new settings
and applies it to the appropriate rest or work interval.
Important: If you entered your age during the Setup prompts and are wearing the
POLAR
®
chest strap, you can adjust the rest or work intervals to keep your heart rate
in its recommended zone. For the weight loss zone, try to maintain your heart rate at
the lower end (55% of maximum heart rate) while in the “rest” intervals and keep it at
70% of maximum heart rate while in the “work” intervals. See Diagram 28.
To use the interval course, take the following steps:
1. Follow the instructions on page 39,
Quick Steps to Working Out
.
2. At the COURSE prompt, use the ▼▲ key to select the INTV course.
3. Press Enter.
4. Select a workout time.
5. Press Enter to proceed to the next prompt. When you’re finished answering
the Setup prompts, the Interval course begins.
