HEART RATE CONTROL WORKOUT OPERATION
Your Matrix machine offers a heart rate control workout
mode. The heart rate control workout mode allows the user
to program their desired heart rate zone and the machine will
automatically adjust the level based upon the user’s heart rate.
The heart rate zone is calculated using the following equation:
(220-Age) * % = target heart rate zone. The user must wear
a telemetric heart rate monitor or continually hold onto the
contact heart rate grips for this workout.
To enter into this workout on the 3x or 5x, use the following

FITNESS TEST
This test measures cardiovascular fitness and proves an
estimated sub-maximal VO2 result. It is based on power output
according to ACSM standards and was developed by the Cooper
Institute (© www.cooperinstitute.org)
User RPMs must remain between 60-80 RPM during the test.
The test will end when the user can no longer maintain this speed.
Use of a heart rate strap is optional but provides more data.
The test starts at a low intensity level and gradually increases in
intensity (difficulty) every 2 minutes. As it increases, the user must
maintain 60-80RPM to advance to the next level. The test could
take upwards of 30+ minutes for very fit individuals. Once the
test ends a recovery period (cool down) will begin and the user’s
results are calculated and displayed. Results are based on the
number of stages completed:
Stage Complete:
1 Well Below Average
2 Well Below Average
3 Below Average
4 Below Average
5 Average
6 Average
7 Above Average
8 Above Average
