4.4.3 H.R.C. - Heart rate controlled program
As soon as AGE is displayed in the LED display, you can enter your age with the + and
- button. The preset value is 30 years. Conrm your age with ENTER. Then PULSE will
light up on the LED display. The computer calculates the target pulse based on the
entered age. This amounts to 60% of the maximum heart rate and is appropriate for
weight reduction. However, if you are aiming for cardio training, you have to increase
the default pulse rate through the + and - buttons so that the target pulse is about 70-
80% of the maximum heart rate. The spectrum to change the target pulse is between
60% and 95% of the maximum heart rate. After entering the target pulse value,
conrm your settings with the ENTER button. After this, TIME will appear in the large
display eld. Set the desired training time (5-99 minutes) with the + and - buttons and
conrm your setting with ENTER.
This will be followed by a three second countdown before the training time starts to
run. Please remember that the actual pulse controlled training program begins after
the warm-up phase of three minutes.
The following table on the next page shows the connection between age and heart
rate.
