The lift motor is turned off leaving the incline or crossramp at its current position. Data entry is canceled.
47 Starting a Workout Ending a Session Cooling down is an important aspect of your workout because it helps reduce muscle stiffness and soreness by transporting excess lactic acid out of the working muscles. In addition, a three to five minute cool down allows your heart rate to return to its normal, resting state. At the end of your workout, a Summary screen displays your average heart rate during your workout and your accumulated workout metrics.
48 Operating and Maintaining the P30 Console Three different types of metrics are captured during a workout. Controlled Metrics can be set and changed. They include: Resistance Level (AMT, EFX, bike) Speed (treadmill) Incline (treadmill) Steps/Minute (climber) Current Performance Metrics describe the intensity of a workout in real time.
49 Starting a Workout Workouts Your fitness equipment includes a wide selection of workouts that are carefully designed to make sure you get the best results out of every workout. The human body is extremely efficient. If it makes the same motion regularly over many days or weeks, it learns to make that motion with less and less effort. This process, called muscle adaptation, has one drawback—the longer you stick to the same workout, the less good that workout does you.

You can change these settings at any time, and your changes will affect the intensity of the rest of your workout. Note: On the EFX, the console prompts you to pedal backward during part of the workout.
56 Operating and Maintaining the P30 Console Watts Target This workout holds the exerciser accountable for maintaining a constant power output throughout the training session. The bike will vary resistance as needed to keep the power level constant as you progress through your workout. At the beginning of the workout, the resistance level is set to 1, but it increases until you are working out at a steady level of 50 watts.
57 Starting a Workout Fitness Tests Fitness tests evaluate your body’s overall fitness in terms of its aerobic capacity. During the warmup stage of the test, you can adjust your starting resistance settings. After that, you complete a series of stages of increasing intensity. Based on your progress through these stages and the changes in your heart rate as you complete them, the equipment calculates your fitness score at the end of the test.
58 Operating and Maintaining the P30 Console The following tables show how to interpret your test score. Table 8. Fitness score categories for women (treadmill) Age in Years Low Fitness Medium High Fitness Fitness 20-39 28 or below 28-34 34 or above 40-49 26 or below 26-32 32 or above 50-59 24 or below 24-29 29 or above 60 or over 22 or below 22-27 27 or above Table 9.

60 Operating and Maintaining the P30 Console Twin Peaks In this workout, you work your way through two long stages of increasing and then decreasing intensity. The workout is similar to the Aerobic workout, but allows longer intervals between changes. You can adjust the intensity of the workout at any time. Training tip: Wear a heart rate monitor to visualize the intensity of your effort as you climb each peak. Rolling Hills This cardio-conditioning program provides a high step rate.
61 Starting a Workout Interval Key Interval workouts help exercisers improve strength, endurance, aerobic and anaerobic fitness. They alternate short bursts of high intensity activity with recovery periods. Pressing the Interval key repeatedly scrolls through the available interval workouts. 1-1, 1-2, and 1-3 Interval The 1-1 Interval workout is designed to raise and lower your heart rate in a repeating fashion for a user-defined period of time by alternating rest and work intervals of two minutes each.
62 Operating and Maintaining the P30 Console Total Body Interval Workout This workout, created specifically for EFX models with moving arms, includes work and rest stages designed to train your upper and lower body in one coordinated exercise. The console displays instructions on how best to exercise your arms and when to pedal backward. Training tip: Push and pull on the moving handles to increase upper body involvement and caloric burn.
