Z8/Z8m Elliptical Owner’s Guide
71
There are two basic ways to create your
own custom workout: have the Z8
Elliptical record your level settings
during a manual workout, or enter the
workout levels directly with the keypad.
The maximum number of segments in
each custom program is 60. You can
store three different custom programs. Segment intensity is
recorded with Personal Power, so that your custom program
can be properly used by others (see Chapter 4).
In Record mode, 60 changes in workload are recorded during
your workout.
For direct entry of a workout program using the keypad, you
can set as few or as many of the parameters as you wish. The
default (called Scale) is for you to pick the total workout time,
then enter up to 60 equal length segments. Each segment can
have up to 77 different intensities, depending on body weight.
If you want to directly control the length of each segment, use
Fixed.
If you select Repeat, you set a workout time, and the segment
pattern you enter repeats over and over until the workout
time is reached.
When you select a stored custom workout program as your
workout, you can change the suggested workout time. This
will simply stretch or shrink the program to fit the new
workout time.
As you use a custom program, if you use the , keys, the
workload intensity for the current segment only is shifted.
