Life Fitness Cross-Trainer workout programs that set a target heart rate zone first calculate the user’s theoretical maxi-
mum heart rate. The HRmax equals 206.9 minus the total of 0.67 multiplied by a person’s age. The programs then calcu-
late the target zone as a percentage of the theoretical maximum.

S ELECTING AND A DJUSTING THE R ESISTANCE L EVEL
When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER, use the ARROW KEYS to increase or decrease the displayed intensity level
or target heart rate to the desired value, and press ENTER. Adjust the level as needed or desired during the workout.
• Resistance level: The Life Fitness Cross-Trainer provides a selection of 25 resistance levels. The resistance level
appears in the WORKOUT PROFILE window as rows of lights arranged in columns. Selecting a low intensity level
at first is recommended. As physical conditioning improves, the levels can increase.
• Target heart rate: Programs that calculate a target heart rate base this number on the age of the user and the type
of workout. The user accepts or adjusts the rate when setting up the workout. During the workout itself, the pro-
gram reads the heart rate, which is transmitted via the Lifepulse system sensors or the Polar heart rate chest
strap; and it uses this data to adjust the resistance. Manually raising the rate increases the intensity of the cardio-
vascular exercise.
