Weight Loss Program

With the Weight Loss Program, the workout time is fixed at 28
minutes and consists of seven 4-minute intervals. You are not
prompted for a workout time. Use the arrow keys to change the
resistance or the ramp incline for the rest or work interval. When you
make changes, the program repeats the settings for the remaining
intervals.

The display lets you know when the resistance levels are about to
change.

For the ideal weight loss range, your heart rate should remain between
55% and 70% of your maximum aerobic heart rate. If you wear a chest
strap or grasp both touch-sensitive grips, you can use SmartRate as a
visual cue.

Set a comfortable stride rate and then adjust the resistance and
ramp incline.

Maintain a level of exertion so that the SmartRate LEDs in the
FATBURN target zone blink in the display during rest intervals.

During the work intervals, increase your level of exertion so that the
LEDs in the CARDIO target zone blink.

For more information about the SmartRate display, refer to Using
SmartRate
