CALCULATING YOUR TARGET HEART RATE

Heart Rate (HR) training has become one of the most popular forms of monitoring your

workouts. Nothing tells you how your body is feeling like your own heart. By using your heart

rate to tell you how hard to train, you can maximize your workout results.

STEP ONE

Determining your Maximum Heart Rate:

The standard calculation for determining your maximum heart rate, Beats per Minute, is by

taking your age and subtracting it from the number 220.

Example: If you are 30 years of age, your maximum heart rate is:

220 – 30 = 190BPM.

STEP TWO

Select your ideal workout HR Zone:

Once you have your maximum heart rate you can use it to determine your Target HR Zone

based on your fitness goal(s).

Recent studies have shown:

60-70% of your maximum HR will allow you to loose weight.

70-80% of your maximum HR will improve your aerobic fitness.

80%+ of your maximum will increase your athletic performance.

STEP THREE

Calculate your ideal Target HR:

Using the above percentages, you can calculate your ideal Target Heart Rate for your specific

goal.

As an example, the average 30 year old can:

Maximize burn fat / weight loss, by maintaining ~123 BPM during your workout

190 *.65 =123.5 BPM.

Improve aerobic fitness, by maintaining ~142 BPM during your workout

190 *.75 =142.5BPM.

Remember to consult your family physician or health care professional to develop a well-

planned exercise program to fit your health needs.

OPERATION CONTINUED

Health Index Test Function

NOTICE: This function can be used only after Run End is displayed in the matrix

window.

This function can calculate the health index based on the variance of heart rate in

one minute after exercise. If the heart rate has no change in one minute, then the

health index will be 6. If the heart rate recovers (decreases) more, then the index

number will be smaller, that is to say you are healthier.

Operation Method: In Run End mode, the matrix window displays Run End. First,

make sure that the heart rate signal blinks and the heart rate number is displayed

by gripping the pulse rate sensors on either side of the console. Then press

PULSE Recovery key. After you press the PULSE Recovery key, the matrix

window will display ”Rec” and then count down for one minute. If there is no heart

rate signal input, the matrix will display ”Rec” and “Error” to show that the test

fails. If the test succeeds, after one minute the Work Level window will display the

initial tested heart rate number, the RPM window will display the last tested heart

rate number, then the Distance window will display the variance between the

above two numbers. The matrix window will display ” Rec ” and the health index

and then come back to the Start/Ready status after several seconds.

Temperature Function

NOTICE: This function can be used only under Start/Ready mode.

Operation Method: Under Start/Ready status, if you press PULSE Recovery key,

the RPM window will display the room temperature, and display °F for

Fahrenheit unit, °C for Celsius unit. After 5 seconds, it will come back

to the Start/Ready display.
