Fitness Test
The FitnessTestmeasuresthe improvements ofyour physical fitness level. Thetest compares your power output (inWatts) to your
heart rate. As you become morefit youwill produce more power (Watts) at a given heart rate.
When the test starts, the power (Watts) slowly increases. This meansyou will work harder, and as a result, your heart rate
increases. The Watts continue to increase automatically until your heart rate reaches the "Test Zone." This zone is individually
computed to be near 75percent ofyour maximumheart rate. When you reach the TestZoneyour machine holds the Watts steady
for 3 minutes. This lets you reach a stable condition (where your heart rate becomes steady). At the end of the 3 minutes, the
Console measuresyour heart rate and the power output (Watts). These numbers, along with information about your age and
weight, are computed to produce a "Fitness Score".
Note: FitnessTest scores should only be compared to your previous scores and not other users.
Overtime, you will output more Watts of power at a certain Heart Rate.Compareyour FitnessScores to see your improvement.
