Data Readouts

As the user exercises, the unit keeps track of and displays the following data:

DISTANCE

Calories Per Hour (CAL/HR) – Calculation of present workload’s energy exertion in Calories per Hour.

Distanc e – The total accumulated distance during workout. Depending on the defaults chosen, this

measurement will show in English (miles) or Metric (kilometers). The unit uses a fi xed 24” (61 cm)
stroke, giving a travel distance of 48” (122 cm) per revolution.

Distance = Strides per Minute x 24” (61 cm) x Time

Strides per Minute – The average number of strides per minute at current speed.

Calories – The total accumulated calories burned during workout.

WATTS – Present workload energy exertion.

Metabo lic Equivalent (METs) – Displayed only if no BPM signal is present. A MET is the metabolic

equivalent of the energy expended by the human body at rest. Anything over one MET is considered
exertion. METs are calculated by the display and updated every 1 – 1.2 seconds.

METs = Cal/Hr X 2.2 / User Weight

Beats P er Minute (BPM) – User’s current heart rate. Heart rate will appear when a signal is introduced.

P1 Weight Loss

The Weight Loss program is a fi ve-minute core program designed for low to medium intensity training
that the user can sustain for an extended period of time. It builds from a low intensity baseline to include
short bursts of higher resistance while the elevation increases by fi fty percent for two-minutes. The
constant variety provides for periods of higher expenditure and training effect without the introduction of
undue fatigue allowing the user to perform for longer periods of time. See table and Figure 1.

Pikes Peak is a fi ve-minute core program that begins at a low intensity level and incrementally increases
both resistance and elevation until peaking after three-minutes and remains at that level for one-minute
before ramping back down to the initial level. The repetitive program is designed to encourage a
transition in training intensity to encourage the development of aerobic and anaerobic energy systems.
See table and Figure 4.

P5 Interval 1:1

The Interval 1:1 program is a two-minute core program utilizing a 1:1 work to rest ratio. It is designed
to improve both aerobic and anaerobic capabilities as users will face a high level of resistance for one
minute followed by a one-minute recuperation period before performing the work interval again. The
elevation remains constant throughout the program. See table and Figure 5.

P8 Cardio

The Cardio program is designed to maintain a high total demand with two-minutes with high resistance
and low elevation and two minutes at medium resistance with higher elevation for a total four-minute
core program. The prolonged exertion period takes advantage of the long term energy stores and total
aerobic capability when associated with speeds that require a high sustained cardiovascular demand.
See table and Figure 8.
