Various types of Heart Rate Control (HRC) are available on Z5

Series treadmills (except on the Z5 Non). This section may describe

some types of HRC that your treadmill may not have.

Time-based constant HRC: pick a target heart rate and exercise for

an amount of time you select.

Cruise Control: while in any workout, set your current heart rate as

your target heart rate by pressing a single key.

Interval heart rate training (not on Z5 HRC): the treadmill

alternates work intervals at your selected target heart rate with rest

intervals that are at ½ workload. You set the length of both intervals.

Distance-based HRC (Z5.5 only): set a target heart rate and select

one of four distances, just like running a road course: 2 miles, 4

miles, 5 kilometers, or 10 kilometers.

1 - Put on a Polar or compatible transmitter chest strap

as described on page 25.

2 - Pick one of the HRC workouts. Use the HRC Express

Command key. To select one of the distance-based

workouts or one of the higher-numbered workout

setups, keep pressing that HRC key.

3 - Enter your workout parameters. This includes target

heart rate, maximum treadbelt speed, workout time

or distance, and maximum incline. If you are using

Interval HRC, pick your interval durations, too.

4 - Press
