FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers aselection of features
designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and
effective. When the manual mode of the console is
selected, the resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer
can be adjusted with a touch of a button. As you exer-
cise, the console will provide continuous exercise
feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using
the built-in handgrip pulse sensor. (For information
about an optional chest pulse sensor, refer to page 20.)
The console also offers four Smart workout programs.
Each program automatically changes the resistance of
the elliptical crosstrainer and prompts you to increase
or decrease your pace as it guides you through an
effective workout.
In addition, the console features two Heart Rate work-
out programs that automatically change the resistance
of the elliptical crosstrainer and prompt you to vary
your pace to keep your heart rate near a target heart
rate as you exercise.
The console also features new iFIT.com interactive
technology. IFIT.com technology is like having a per-
sonal trainer right in your home. Using a stereo audio
cable (available at electronics stores), you can connect
the elliptical crosstrainer to your home stereo, portable
stereo, or computer and play special iFIT.com CD pro-
grams (CD's are available separately). IFlT.com CD
programs automatically control the resistance of the
elliptical crosstrainer and prompt you to vary your pace
as a personal trainer coaches you through every step
of your workout. High-energy music provides added
motivation. Each CD features two programs designed
by certified personal trainers.
In addition, you can connect the elliptical crosstrainer
to your VCR and TV and play iFIT.com video programs
(videocassettes are available separately). Video pro-
grams offer the same benefits as iFIT.com CD pro-
grams, but add the excitement of working out with a
class and an instructor.
With the elliptical crosstrainer connected to your com-
puter, you can also go to our new Web site at
www.iFIT.com and access audio programs and video
programs directly from the intemet.
