Life Fitness 93X - Manual (Page 16)

The following workouts, available on the 93X model, are accessed by pressing the
WORKOUTS PLUS key :
AROUND THE WORLD is an interval-training workout in which the hills resemble scenes of
various geographical areas.
CASCADES is a two-peak workout in which intensity levels gradually increase and decrease.
FOOTHILLS is a rolling hill workout with low intensity levels.
INTERVAL is a Hill workout in which intensity levels rise and fall. The higher levels gradually
incline toward a peak and then gradually decline.
KILIMANJARO is a Hill workout in which the intensity levels gradually incline toward one ulti-
mate peak and then gradually decline.
SPEED TRAINING is a Hill workout in which the intensity level alternates between high and low
levels very quickly to simulate a typical speed training workout.
CROSS-TRAIN AEROBICS (accessible via the ARROW keys on the 90X) simulates the experi-
ence of working with a personal trainer. The MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts at different
times to emphasize pushing, pulling, total body, lower body, speed changes, and
forward/reverse motion. This versatile workout promotes maximum cross-training benefits.
CROSS-TRAIN REVERSE (accessible via the ARROW keys on the 90X) continuously alternates five
minutes of forward motion with two minutes of backward motion to cross-train different muscle
groups.

cific workout program. At the MESSAGE CENTER prompt to select a workout, press the QUICK
START key. The workout begins at an intensity level that remains the same unless manually
