USING THE SPRINT 8 PROGRAM

The Sprint 8 program is an anaerobic interval program designed to build

muscle, improve speed, and naturally increase the release of Human

Growth Hormone (HGH) in your body. Producing HGH through exercise

and a proper diet has been shown as an effective way to burn fat and

build lean muscle mass according to Phil Campbell, author of Ready, Set,

Go! Synergy Fitness. Please go to Mr. Campbell’s website

www.re a d y s e t g o f itn e ss.com f o r m o r e d e t a i ls a bo u t this r a d i c a l n ew

approach to fitness.

S270HR

The SPRINT 8 program features intense sprint intervals followed by

recovery intervals. The program includes the following phases:

1. WARM-UP should gradually increase your heart rate and increase

respiration and blood flow to working muscles. The warm-up is

controlled by the user to meet your specific needs.

2. INTERVAL TRAINING starts immediately after the warm-up with a

30-second Sprint interval. Seven Recovery Intervals of 90 seconds

will alternate with the eight 30–second Sprint Intervals. The

message display will prompt you to increase your stride rate during

the Sprint Interval and decrease stride rate during the Recovery

Interval. A difference of 40 to 60 Strides Per Minute between

Sprint Interval and Recovery Interval is recommended.

3. COOL-DOWN helps return your body’s systems to resting levels. Less

demand is placed on your heart during recovery if an appropriate

cool-down is used following the exercise.

Due to the fact that this is a specialized training program, total workout time

is not displayed during the program. The interval time is displayed in the time

window instead. It takes only 20 minutes to complete the SPRINT 8 workout.

USING HEART RATE TRAINING

WHAT IS HEART RATE TRAINING?

Heart Rate Training means exercising at an intensity that keeps you in your

ideal heart rate zone. Your personal heart rate training zone depends on

your fitness goal, such as weight loss, cardiovascular endurance, or

strength building. Refer to page 36 for more information on heart rate

training zones. VISION FITNESS HRT programs are set up to keep you

S270HR

at an ideal heart rate based on your fitness goal. These programs

automatically adjust resistance based on your heart rate readings.

The S7200HRT console features four programs (HRT Weight Loss, HRT

Cardio, HRT Interval, and HRT Hill) that offer the benefits of Heart Rate Training.

• These programs use the predicted maximum heart rate formula

(220 minus age) to determine your predicted maximum heart rate.

Some individuals have higher or lower maximum heart rates than

determined by this formula. The programs allow you to modify your

Target Heart Rate to achieve your personal goals.

HAND PULSE HEART RATE SENSORS

The Contact Hand Pulse Sensors are

included on each product to monitor

your heart rate. To use, grasp the

sensors with a comfortable grip

during your workout. The console

will display your heart rate. Although

your signal will be displayed

immediately, it may take the system a

few seconds to zero in on your

actual heart rate.

NOTE: The Contact Hand Pulse Sensors will work for the HRT programs,

but it is recommended to use the telemetric chest strap for an uninterrupted

signal and ease of use.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

TELEMETRIC HEART RATE CHEST STRAP

The wireless Telemetric Chest Strap uses a pair of electrodes on the

underside of the strap to send your heart rate signal to the console. Prior

to wearing the chest strap, moisten the two rubber electrode pads with

several drops of water. These electrodes must remain wet to provide an

accurate signal. We advise using the chest strap against your skin, but it

also functions through a thin layer of wet clothing.

S270HR

STRAP PLACEMENT

Center the transmitter strap just below the breast or pectoral muscles,

directly over your sternum with the VISION FITNESS logo facing out. Adjust

the elastic strap so it is snug but comfortable enough for proper breathing.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

ALL HRT PROGRAMS

During the workout, the user will grasp the hand pulse sensors or wear the

telemetric chest strap to send their heart rate signal to a receiver in the

console. The console will continuously monitor the heart rate, adjusting the

resistance level of the Suspension Elliptical™ Trainer to keep your heart

rate within several beats of your Target Heart Rate. By using the SCAN

key, the heart rate feedback window conveniently displays your Heart

Rate, % Heart Rate, and your Target Heart Rate to keep you informed

about your current heart rate. Each program will begin with a two-minute

warm-up. W hen the workout time has been completed, the console will

begin a five-minute cool-down. The user will be responsible for adjusting

resistance to meet their needs during the warm-up and cool-down.

HRT CARDIO

The HRT CARDIO program is designed to maintain your heart rate at 80%

of your predicted maximum heart rate. It is intended to improve efficiency

and endurance of your cardiovascular system by working your heart, lungs

and circulatory systems. This is a great workout for anyone, but beginners

may want to start lower and build their way up to 80% of their predicted

maximum heart rate.

S270HR

HRT WEIGHT LOSS

The HRT W EIGHT LOSS program is designed to maintain your heart rate

at 65% of your predicted maximum heart rate. The goal of this program

is to burn calories by using your body’s fat reserves as the primary fuel

during exercise and to improve the efficiency of your workout by

eliminating over-training or under-training. This is a great workout for

beginners.

HRT INTERVAL

The HRT INTERVAL program is designed to increase aerobic endurance

and your overall fitness level, increase endurance of muscle fibers, and

increase the amount of calories burned in your exercise session. This

program consists of alternating effort and recovery intervals. The Target

Heart Rate for your effort interval will be 80% of your predicted maximum

heart rate, while the Target Heart Rate for your recovery intervals will be

70% of your predicted maximum heart rate. The two-minute effort interval

begins when you reach your Target Heart Rate for that particular interval.

The recovery interval duration depends on the amount of time it takes to

get to your recovery heart rate.

HRT HILL

The HRT HILL program uses four different Target Heart Rates to build

cardiovascular strength and endurance. The resistance will adjust until your

rate reaches the Target Heart Rate for four separate hills. The hills will be

set at 65%, 70%, 75%, and 80% of your predicted maximum heart rate.

The program will keep you at each heart rate level for one minute from the

time the Target Heart Rate is reached. The program will repeat the series

of hills until the workout time is complete.

The GOAL programs allow you to

select one of three target goals for

your workout. The target goals

include: Time, Calories, and

Distance. You will be asked your

goal choice in set-up. You will then

go through set-up mode like any

other program, setting age, user

weight, and resistance level. The

workout will then begin and will run

until your goal has been achieved.

The program runs like a MANUAL

program in which you will need to

adjust resistance and incline for

intensity changes.
