FE44 ELLIPTICAL
15
PRESET PROGRAMS
These ellipticals have five different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts.
These five programs have factory preset work level profiles for achieving different goals.
Hill
The Hill program simulates going up and down a hill. The resistance in the
pedals will steadily increase and then decrease during the program.
Fat Burn
The Fat Burn program is designed, as the name implies, to maximize the
burning of fat. There are many schools of thought on the best way to burn
fat but most experts agree that a lower exertion level that stays at a steady
workload is the best. The absolute best way to burn fat is to keep your heart
rate at around 60% to 70% of its maximum potential. This program does not
use heart rate but simulates a lower, steady exertion workout.
Cardio
The Cardio program is designed to increase your cardiovascular function and
endurance. This is exercise for your heart and lungs. It will build up your heart
muscle and increase blood flow and lung capacity. This is achieved by incor-
porating a higher level of exertion with slight fluctuations in work
Strength
The Strength program is designed to increase muscular strength in your
lower body. This program will steadily increase in resistance to a high level
and forces you to sustain it. This is designed to strengthen and tone your legs
and glutes (muscles of the butt).
Interval
The Interval program takes you through high levels of intensity followed by
periods of low intensity. This program increases your endurance by deplet-
ing your oxygen level followed by periods of recovery to replenish oxygen.
Your cardiovascular system gets programmed to use oxygen more efficiently
this way. This program also forces your body to become more efficient due to
spikes in heart rate, between recovery periods. This aids in heart rate recov-
ery from intense activities.
