2.2 DISPLAY CONSOLE DESCRIPTIONS

This section lists and describes the functions for the keys and display windows on the console. See Section 4, titled The Workouts, for detailed information on using the console to set up workouts. A START: Press this key to activate the console for programming a new workout. The activated console lights up and displays “SELECT WORKOUT OR PRESS QUICK START”. If no key is pressed for 15seconds and the user stops pedaling, the console shuts down again. NOTE: The Life Fitness Total Body Trainer’s AutoStart feature also activates the console when the user steps on the pedals and begins pedaling. B ENTER: Press this key after entering each value, such as weight or workout time, when prompted by console display messages.

• Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the CARDIO workout is 144. This workout targets 80 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.80=144.C NUMERIC keypad: Use these keys to enter values, such as length of workout, weight, age, target heart rate*, and intensity level. While a workout is in progress, numeric keys can be used to set new intensity levels or change the target heart rate* in the FAT BURN and CARDIO workouts. The ARROW keys have a similar function, except that they change workout parameters by single incre- ments. D ARROW keys: A pair of UP and DOWN arrows is located on either side of the TIME/LEVEL window. When setting up a workout, use either set of arrows to change workout parameters displayed on the console, such as length of workout, weight, age, target heart rate*, and intensity level. During a work- out, pressing the ARROWS on the right (LEVEL) side of display changes the target heart rate for FAT BURN and CARDIO workouts or the intensity level for other workouts. Pressing the ARROWS on the left (TIME) side increases or decreases the workout duration. Pressing the arrows on the right (LEVEL) side increases or decreases the intensity level. NOTE: Whenever an arrow key is pressed during a workout, an increase (up arrow key) or decrease (down arrow key) is made to the corresponding parameter (level). The number that appears reflects that change. For example, if the user is at level 6 and presses the right up arrow key, the number 7 will appear, reflecting that the user has chosen a new level. If the change is desired, press Enter to accept. If the change is not desired, the user has ten seconds to reset the level to the desired parame- ter, before the unit accepts the changed value and makes the appropriate adjustments. E QUICK START: Press this key to begin a manual workout immediately, without having to select a workout program. Once the workout is in progress, use the ARROW KEYS or the NUMERIC KEYPAD to change the intensity level or workout duration as desired. F CLEAR: When programming a workout, press this key to clear incorrect data, such as weight or age, before pressing the ENTER key. Pressing CLEAR during a workout stops it immediately, at which point the MESSAGE CENTER displays a summary of the workout, including total time elapsed, total dis- tance traveled, and total calories burned. Pressing CLEAR a second time causes the MESSAGE CEN- TER to prompt the user for a new workout setup. G FAT BURN: Press this key to select the FAT BURN program, which is a low-intensity workout for burning fat. H CARDIO: Press this key to select the CARDIO program, which is a higher intensity workout for more fit users, emphasizing cardiovascular benefits and maximum fat burning. I RANDOM: Press this key to select the RANDOM program, which is a workout of constantly changing intensity levels that occur in no regular pattern or progression. J MANUAL: Press this key to select the MANUAL program, in which the intensity level remains the same unless it is manually changed. K ZONE TRAINING+: Press this key to select one of the workouts that target specific ranges, or zones, for maintaining a heart rate to achieve maximum exercise results. The following options may be accessed with this key:

• FAT BURN (also accessible with FAT BURN key)

• CARDIO (also accessible with CARDIO key) L PERSONAL TRAINER: Press this key to access additional workouts. The following options may be accessed with this key.

• Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the CARDIO workout is 144. This workout targets 80 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.80=144.M HILL PLUS: Press this key to select HILL PLUS workouts, in which intensity levels increase and decrease in set patterns. The following workouts may be accessed with this key:

• INTERVAL N COOLDOWN: Workout programs end automatically in a Cooldown mode, which lowers the intensity level. Press the COOLDOWN key at any desired point during a workout to go immediately into Cooldown mode. In this phase of a workout the body begins to remove lactic acid and other accumulated by-prod- ucts of exercise, which build up in muscles during a workout and contribute to muscle soreness. The con- sole automatically adjusts each workout’s Cooldown level according to the individual user’s performance. O WORKOUT PROFILE window: This window displays shapes, made of columns of lights, that represent the levels of intensity in a workout-in-progress. The height of the first column on the left side of the win- dow is proportional to the current level of intensity. During a FAT BURN or CARDIO workout, which requires the use of a Polar

heart rate chest strap or the Lifepulse system sensors, the WORKOUT PROFILE window displays a flashing heart shape to request the user’s heart rate signal. If the console does not detect a signal, the MESSAGE CENTER displays the prompt “NEED HEART RATE - PLACE HANDS ON SENSORS OR USE TELEMETRY STRAP". If the console does not receive the signal within three minutes, the workout automatically is converted to a MANUAL program. P MESSAGE CENTER: This window displays step-by-step instructions for setting up a workout. During a workout, it displays statistics about the progress of the workout:

• Heart Rate: the detected heart rate if the user is wearing the chest strap or grasping the Lifepulse system sensors.

• Distance: the total distance traveled in miles (or kilometers if enabled).

• Speed: the pedaling speed or rate in miles per hour (or kilometers per hour if enabled).

• Calories: the number of calories burned since beginning the workout. If programmed to do so, the MESSAGE CENTER displays any or all of these three values each time the intensity level changes during the workout:

• Calories per Hour: the rate of calories burned per hour.

• Watts: effort level in Watts. The Watt is a unit of power output or the expression of the mechanical rate of work.

• METs: effort level in METs. The MET is an expression of the rate of work for the human body at rest, or a metabolic equivalent; one MET is approximately equal to the metabolism of a person at rest. See Chapter 5, titled Internal Settings for information about enabling the MESSAGE CENTER to display these additional settings. Q AEROBICS MODE: Press this key to activate a workout mode in which the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts that vary the workload and emphasize different muscle groups during the workout. It can be used with any workout, except for Fat Burn and Cardio. R REVERSE MODE: Press this key to activate a workout mode that alternates five minutes of forward motion with two minutes of reverse motion. It can be used with any workout, except for Fat Burn and Cardio. S LEVEL/TIME WINDOW: This window displays the programmed intensity level and the time elapsed since the start of the program. For more information about Aerobics Mode and Reverse Mode, see the topic Using the Two Workout Modes in Section 4.2, titled, the Using the Workouts.

The accessory tray (A), which is mounted near the base of the console, provides dual storage trays with space for items such as water bottles, personal stereos, and cell phones. Additionally, an integrated reading rack (B) for supporting a book or magazine is located at the base of the upper panel of the console.

Research shows that maintaining a specific heart rate while exercising is the optimal way tomonitor the intensity of a workout and to achieve maximum results. That is the idea behind theLife Fitness heart rate zone training approach to exercise.Zone training identifies an exerciser's ideal heart rate range, or zone, for burning fat or increasing cardiovascular fitness. The values within the zone depend on the workout. NOTE: Consulting a fitness trainer is recommended for defining specific fitness goals anddesigning a workout program. The Life Fitness Total Body Trainer features exclusive workouts designed to take full advantage of the benefits of heart rate zone training exercise: FAT BURN and CARDIO. For detailed infor- mation about the workouts, see Section 4, titled The Workouts. During one of these workouts, grasp the Lifepulse system sensors continuously, or wear thePolar heart rate chest strap to enable the on-board computer to monitor the heart rate during aworkout. The computer automatically adjusts the resistance level to maintain the target heartrate* based on the actual heart rate. To change the target heart rate during a workout, use theLEVEL ARROW keys.

• Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the CARDIO workout is 144. This workout targets 80 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.80=144.3.2 H

The patented Lifepulse system sensors are the built-in heart rate monitoring system on the Life Fitness Total Body Trainer. For the most accurate reading possible, during a workout:

• Grasp the sensors (A) firmly.

• Hold each sensors at the vertical midpoint.

• Keep hands steady and in place. The console displays the heart rate within 10 to 40 seconds after the user grasps the sensors.

The Life Fitness Total Body Trainer is equipped with Polar heart rate monitoring system in which electrodes, pressed against the skin, transfer heart rate signals to the console. These electrodes are attached to a chest strap that the user wears during the workout. The chest strap is optional. To order it, call Life Fitness Customer Support Services. See Section 6.5, titled How to Obtain Product Service. See the diagram below for correct positioning of the strap. The electrodes (A), which are the two grooved surfaces on the underside of the strap, must remain wet to transmit accurately the elec- trical impulses of the heart back to the receiver. Moisten the electrodes. Then, secure the strap as high under the chest muscles as possible. The strap should be snug, but comfortable enough to allow for normal breathing. The transmitter strap delivers an optimal heart rate reading when the electrodes are in direct con- tact with skin. However, it also functions properly through a thin layer of wet clothing. If it becomes necessary to re-moisten the chest strap electrodes, grasp the center of the strap, pull it away from the chest to expose the two electrodes, and moisten them. NOTE: If the Lifepulse system sensors are grasped while the chest strap is worn, and if the sig- nals from the sensors are valid, the on-board computer uses the sensor signals for calculating the heart rate instead of those transmitted with the chest strap.

4.2 USING THE WORKOUTS

This section provides detailed information on setting up and using workouts. For quick-reference setup steps, see the chart at the end of the section.

WORKOUT To mount the Life Fitness Total Body Trainer, grasp the handles and carefully step on the pedals. To dismount, step off the pedals while still holding the handles. Then let go of the handles. Without networking, press START or begin pedaling to activate the console. The MESSAGE CENTER displays, "SELECT WORKOUT OR PRESS ENTER TO BEGIN." If it displays a differ- ent message, press the CLEAR key twice in rapid succession. With optional networking enabled, press START or begin pedaling to activate the console. The MESSAGE CENTER displays, "SELECT WORKOUT OR ENTER ID USING ENTER KEY". Either select a workout as described below, or log on to the networked exercise database, and then select a workout. To log onto the network, key in the user ID number with the numeric keypad.

QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising and bypasses the steps of selecting a spe- 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 changed. After 12 seconds, the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to enter weight, which the computer requires to calculate total calories burned.

ORKOUT For MANUAL, FAT BURN, CARDIO, and RANDOM: When prompted to select a workout, press the key labeled with the name of the desired workout. For CROSS-TRAIN REVERSE and CROSS-TRAIN AEROBICS: When prompted by the MES- SAGE CENTER to select a workout, press the PERSONAL TRAINER key. The MESSAGE CEN- TER displays the name a workout. Press ENTER to select the displayed workout or continue to press the PERSONAL TRAINER key to display each of the other options. Press ENTER to select the desired workout. For HILL, AROUND THE WORLD, FOOTHILLS, INTERVAL, KILIMANJARO, CASCADES, and SPEED TRAINING: When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to select a workout, press the HILL PLUS key. The MESSAGE CENTER then displays the name of the one of these workouts. Press ENTER to select the displayed workout or continue to press the HILL PLUS key to display each of the other options. Press ENTER to select the desired program. 16E NTERING WEIGHT When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to enter weight, use the ARROW KEYS to increase or decrease the displayed weight to the correct value (or key in the correct value with the NUMERIC KEYPAD) and press ENTER. The default weight is 150 pounds or 68 kilograms. The on-board computer calculates the number and rate of calories burned using the entered weight as well as the pedaling speed. ENTERING AGE When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to enter age, use the ARROW KEYS to increase or decrease the displayed age to the correct value (or key in the correct value with the NUMERIC KEYPAD) and press ENTER. Life Fitness Total Body Trainer workout programs that set a target heart rate* zone first calculate the user’s theoretical maximum heart rate

by subtracting the user’s age from the number 220. The programs then calculate the target zone as a percentage of the theoretical maximum. ENTERING T IME When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to enter a time, use the ARROW KEYS to increase or decrease the displayed time to the desired value (or key in the desired value with the NUMERIC KEYPAD) and press ENTER.

SELECTING AND ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE LEVEL

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 (or key in the desired value with the NUMERIC keypad) and press ENTER. Adjust the level as needed or desired during the workout.

• Resistance level: The Life Fitness Total Body 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 program reads the heart rate, which is transmitted via the heart rate chest strap or the Lifepulse system sensors; it uses this data to adjust the resistance. Manually raising the rate increases the intensity of the cardiovascular exercise.

Defined by the American College of Sports Medicine's "Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription" as equal to 220 minus an individual’s age.

• Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the FAT BURN workout is 117. This workout targets 65 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.65=117.S

ELECTING A WORKOUT MODE

Two workout mode options on the Life Fitness Total Body Trainer feature alternate ways to vary work- outs.

• Aerobics Mode: This workout mode simulates the experience of working out with a train- er. Throughout the workout, the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts to vary the work- load and emphasize different muscle groups, such as upper- and lower-body. This feature can be used with any workout (except for Fat Burn, Cardio, Heart Rate Hill, Heart Rate Interval or Extreme Heart Rate). To select it, press AEROBICS MODE key.

• Reverse Mode: This workout mode continuously alternates five minutes of forward motion with two minutes of reverse motion, to exercise different leg muscles. This feature can be used with any workout (except for Fat Burn, Cardio, Heart Rate Hill, Heart Rate Interval or Extreme Heart Rate). To select it, press the REVERSE MODE key. SWITCHING WORKOUTS “ON-THE-FLY” It is possible, during a workout, to switch to another workout program. After a switch, the console retains all the progress information about the workout since its beginning. To change workouts “on the fly,” simply press the key for the desired new workout. This feature is available for all workouts except for Around the World, Kilimanjaro, Interval, Cascades, Speed Training, Foothills, and Personal Trainer workouts.

AUSING WORKOUTS To pause a workout, simply stop pedaling. To continue the workout, resume pedaling. The pause duration lasts 60 seconds, after which the console automatically shuts down.

NDING WORKOUTS EARLY To end a workout before the pre-set duration expires, press CLEAR once. The MESSAGE CENTER then displays a workout summary, which includes the distance travelled, the total calories burned, and other statistics. Press CLEAR a second time and the MESSAGE CENTER displays “SELECT WORK- OUT OR PRESS QUICK START” for a new workout.

• Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the FAT BURN workout is 117. This workout targets 65 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.65=117.19 QUICK START Press QUICK START Begin workout MANUAL Press MANUAL Enter weight Enter time Select level Begin workout RANDOM Press RANDOM Enter weight Enter time Select level Begin workout FAT BURN* Press FAT BURN Enter weight Enter time Enter age Accept THR** Begin workout CARDIO* Press CARDIO Enter weight Enter time Enter age Accept THR** Begin workout HILL Press HILL PLUS repeatedly until HILL appears, press ENTER Enter weight Enter time Select level Begin workout

• This workout requires the user to wear the telemetry chest strap or to grip the Lifepulse system sensors. ** Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the FAT BURN workout is 117. This workout targets 65 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.65=117. When the MESSAGE CENTER displays a Target Heart Rate, either accept it by pressing ENTER, or change the value with the LEVEL ARROW key, and then press ENTER. LIFE FITNESS TOTAL BODY TRAINER WORKOUT SETUP STEPS4.3 W ORKOUT DESCRIPTIONS QUICK START QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising and bypasses the steps of selecting a specific workout program. The intensity level for the workout is set automatically and remains the same unless manually changed. To change the level, use the LEVEL ARROW keys or use the NUMERIC KEYPAD to enter a higher or lower level number. After the workout has been in progress for 12 sec- onds, the MESSAGE CENTER displays “ENTER WEIGHT”, which the computer requires to calcu- late total calories. Using the ARROW KEYS, increase or decrease the displayed weight to the correct value (or enter the weight using the NUMERIC keypad). MANUAL W ORKOUT The MANUAL program sets an intensity level that does not change automatically. While the workout is in progress, increase or lower the intensity level as desired using the ARROW keys. RANDOM WORKOUT The RANDOM program creates a terrain of hills and valleys that varies with each workout. More than one million different patterns are possible. Because workout levels are greater in this work- out than in the HILL workout, it is recommended that the RANDOM workout be set one or two levels lower than the workout level which would normally be selected in the HILL workout. FAT BURN The FAT BURN workout is designed to maintain a user’s heart rate at 65 percent of the theoretical maximum

for optimal results. Throughout the workout, the user wears a chest strap or grips the Lifepulse system sensors. If the user is not wearing a chest strap, the WORKOUT PROFILE window displays a heart shape and the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to grip the sensors. The con- sole continuously monitors and displays the heart rate, adjusting the intensity level of the Life Fitness Total Body Trainer to reach and maintain the target*. This system eliminates over- and under-training and maximizes the aerobic benefits of exercise by using the body's fat stores for fuel. CARDIO The CARDIO workout is virtually identical to FAT BURN, except the target heart rate is calculat- ed at 80 percent of the theoretical maximum. As with FAT BURN, the user wears a chest strap or grips the Lifepulse system sensors throughout the CARDIO workout.The higher target promotes cardiovascular improvement by placing a heavier workload on the heart muscle. HILL The Life Fitness-patented HILL workout offers a variety of configurations for interval training. Intervals are periods of intense aerobic exercise separated by regular periods of lower-intensity exercise. The WORK- OUT PROFILE window represents these high and low intervals as columns of light, which together have the appearance of hills and valleys. The computerized interval training workout has been scientifically demonstrated to promote greater cardio-respiratory improvement than steady-pace training. Each HILL workout goes through four phases, each marked by different intensity levels. The WORKOUT PROFILE window displays the progress of these phases, as seen in the chart following these descrip- tions below. As noted in the descriptions, the heart rate should be measured at two stages in the workout to gauge its effectiveness. To do so, wear the chest strap or continuously grip the Lifepulse system sen- sors. Note that the MESSAGE CENTER does not display a request for a heart rate measurement during a HILL workout. 201 Warm-up is a phase of low, gradually-rising resistance, which brings the heart rate into the lower end of the target zone and increases respiration and blood flow to working muscles. 2 Plateau increases the intensity slightly, and keeps it steady, to bring the heart rate to the low end of the target zone. Check the heart rate at the end of this phase. 3 Interval Training is a series of increasingly steeper hills, alternating with valleys (or periods of recovery). The heart rate should rise to the high end of the target zone. Check the heart rate at the end of this phase. 4 Cool-down is a low-intensity phase that allows the body to begin removing lactic acid and other exercise by-products, which build up in muscles and contribute to soreness. Each column, as seen in the WORKOUT PROFILE window and the chart above, represents one interval. The overall duration of the workout determines the length of each interval. Each workout is made up of 20 intervals, so the duration of each interval is equal to the duration of the entire workout divided by 20. 10 to 19 minutes: The interval durations initially are set at 30 seconds for a 10-minute workout. For every minute added by the user “on the fly,” each interval increases by three seconds. A 15-minute workout consists of 20 intervals at 45 seconds each. 20 to 99 minutes: All intervals last 60 seconds. If the user adds minutes to the pre-set duration while the workout is in progress, the program adds hills and valleys that are identical to the first eight intervals of the Interval Training phase. This pattern repeats until the workout is completed.

SIX PRE-SET WORKOUTS

AROUND THE WORLD, CASCADES, FOOTHILLS, INTERVAL, KILIMANJARO, and SPEED TRAINING are variations of the HILL workout. These workouts cannot be changed “on the fly.” AROUND THE WORLD is an interval-training workout in which the hills resemble scenes of vari- ous 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. 21C ROSS-TRAIN AEROBICS During this workout, the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts to emphasize different muscle groups. To emphasize upper-body muscles, the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts to focus on pushing and pulling the moving arms at various times. To emphasize lower-body muscles, the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts to rest the hands on the stationary handlebar, thus forcing the legs to do all the work. The program also alternates between forward and reverse motion as well as different speeds. Ten seconds after prompting the user to change pedaling direction, the workout applies “braking resistance,” that is, a high resistance level that essentially forces the user to stop pedaling. Once the user stops pedaling, the workout resumes the normal resistance level. The actual level of brak- ing resistance depends on the user’s pedaling speed. If the user is pedaling at a rate equal to, or faster than 6.2 mph (10.0 km/h), the workout applies the maximum level of braking resistance. If the user is pedaling at a speed below 6.2 mph (10.0 km/h), the workout applies 92 percent of the maximum. CROSS-TRAIN AEROBICS is a constant-resistance workout. However, for a similar experience with a variable-resistance-level workout, the user can start any workout (except for Fat Burn and Cardio) and then press the AEROBICS MODE key. CROSS-TRAIN REVERSE This workout features alternating periods of pedaling forward and pedaling backwards. If the user chooses a workout duration 14 minutes or above, the unit displays alternating prompts to pedal for- ward for five minutes and then backward for two minutes. If the user selects a goal of 13 minutes or below, the display prompts the user to pedal forward for two minutes and then backward for one minute. If the user selects a goal other than time (distance or calorie), the program uses the default setting of prompting forward motion for five minutes and reverse for two minutes. This feature varies the emphasis on different leg muscles.
