Preset Programs
The Elliptical has five different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts.
These five programs have factory preset work level profiles for achieving different goals.
HILL
The Hill program simulates going up and down a hill. The resistance in the pedals will steadily
increase and then decrease during the program.
Fat Burn
The Fat Burn program is designed, as the name implies, to maximize the burning of fat. There
are many schools of thought on the best way to burn fat but most experts agree that a lower
exertion level that stays at a steady workload is the best. The absolute best way to burn fat is to
keep your heart rate at around 60% to 70% of its maximum potential. This program does not
use heart rate but simulates a lower, steady exertion workout.
Cardio
The Cardio program is designed to increase your Cardio vascular function. This is exercise for
your heart and lungs. It will build up your heart muscle and increase blood flow and lung
capacity. This is achieved by incorporating a higher level of exertion with slight fluctuations in
work.
Strength
The Strength program is designed to increase muscular strength in your lower body. This
program will steadily increase in resistance to a high level and then keeps you there. This is
designed to strengthen and tone your legs and glutes.
Interval
The Interval program takes you through high levels of intensity followed by periods of low
intensity. This program increases your endurance by depleting your oxygen level followed by
periods of recovery to replenish oxygen. Your cardio vascular system gets programmed to use
oxygen more efficiently this way.
