We recommend that you keep track of your workouts by writing them down. This
way you can monitor your progress toward your fitness goals and also use the
information as a reference in planning interesting and challenging workouts in
the future. A form for recording your workout statistics is provided on page 23.
USING MANUAL MODE AND THE QUICK START KEY
Manual mode lets you control your ramp and resistance levels which affect the
effort you put into your workout. If you change the levels during Manual mode,
the change appears in each individual column of the course profile while you
work out.
You can choose the Manual Mode in two different ways by:
• pressing the QUICK START key while the “PRECOR EFX544” prompt
scrolls across the display. The QUICK START option bypasses the setup
prompts. The weight setting defaults to 150 pounds (70 kg) so all calorie
calculations and their associated displays are based on a body weight of
150pounds (70 kg). However, you can change the WEIGHT or TIME
settings before you press the QUICK START key.
• pressing ENTER at the “PRECOR EFX544” prompt. This causes the
EFX544 to display a number of setup prompts as explained in the previous
section titled
Exercising on the EFX544
When you choose the MANUAL program on the EFX544, the program’s course
profile appears in the left display window and shows a flat, constant course (4
cells high). Use the RAMP and RESISTANCE CONTROL or keys to change
the ramp incline and resistance (force applied against your stride). As you
proceed through your workout on the EFX544, a blinking cell represents your
position in the course.
