Precor 5.31 Manual De Usuario

18

A dedicated window displays your heart rate while 
exercising. To view your heart rate (beats per minute) on the 
display, either wear a chest strap or grasp both touch-
sensitive handrail grips. 

Note: The EFX5.31 does not have the touch-sensitive 
handrail grips so you must purchase the optional chest strap 
transmitter to monitor your heart rate.

The Precor web site (www.precor.com) has several 
suggestions for workouts with varying levels of intensity. It 
provides many workout details that include the appropriate 
target heart rate.

The EFX includes a program that lets you exercise based on 
a specified target heart rate. As you exercise, the Basic HRC 
Program monitors your heart rate and automatically 
maintains it within a few beats per minute (bpm) of your 
selected target. 

To use this program, press the PROGRAMS - HEART RATE 
key. For more information, refer to Programs.

Every time you complete a program using the chest strap or 
touch-sensitive handrail grips, the EFX provides a heart rate 
analysis after the workout summary.

Your average heart rate appears followed by the maximum 
heart rate achieved during your workout. A third display 
appears, if you entered your age, and indicates the amount of 
time your heart rate remained between the target zones 
shown. 

The heart rate analysis is based on how often your heart rate 
signal is received while exercising. If you use the chest strap, 
the average heart rate will be more accurate than if you 
occasionally grasp the touch-sensitive handrail grips.
