1.5 HOW TO STABILIZE THE LIFE FITNESS CROSS-TRAINER
After placing your Cross-Trainer where it will be used, check
its stability. If there is even a slight rocking motion, or the unit
is not stable, determine which stabilizing leg is not resting
firmly on the floor. To adjust the leg, loosen the JAM NUT (A)
and turn the STABILIZING LEG (B) until the rocking motion
ceases and both stabilizing legs rest firmly on the floor.
Retighten the JAM NUT.
NOTE: It is extremely important that the stabilizing leg be
correctly adjusted for proper operation.
1.6 PLUGGING IN THE
CROSS-TRAINER
Your Life Fitness Cross-Trainer comes with a
standard U.S. power supply. Insert the power
adapter jack into the barrel plug on the back of
the Cross-Trainer. Then insert the transformer
into the wall outlet (or the universal power supply
if outside the U.S.). Make sure the cord is placed
so it doesnt bind and will not be walked on.
Check that the console LEDs light up. If not,
recheck the plug and wall connections and
make sure the wall outlet has power.

SelectStride
Technology by Life Fitness is the latest advancement in elliptical training. SelectStride
gives you the ability to adjust the
stride length at any time during your workout. By adjusting the stride length, you can personalize the motion to your body or to your
specific workout. For example, a longer stride length may feel the most comfortable and natural to taller individuals. Similarly, you may
prefer a shorter stride setting when performing a slower paced workout while the longer stride setting might feel best when using a
faster, running-style pace. You can also change the stride length setting to add variety to your workout. The result? An extremely
comfortable and effective elliptical workout thats right for you.
The following shows these easy steps for adjusting the stride length. Remember to adjust both sides to assure the stride length is the
same for each sideadjust at any time before or during a workout.

5. HEART RATE ZONE TRAINING
®
EXERCISE
5.1 WHY HEART RATE ZONE TRAINING EXERCISE?
Research shows that exercising within a specific heart rate
zone is the optimum way to both monitor exercise intensity
and achieve maximum results. Thats the idea behind the Life
Fitness Heart Rate Zone Training approach to exercise.
Zone Training Exercise takes the guesswork out of working
out. By training in programs where specific heart rate ranges
or zones are maintained, you can achieve maximum exercise
results according to the goals you set. In short, Zone Training
Exercise all but eliminates under- and over-training by
accurately targeting your heart rate to match your individual
fitness levels and objectives
For example, if your primary goal is to burn fat, exercise at a
level between 60% and 75% of the theoretical maximum heart
rate
. To improve cardiovascular condition, work out at 75% to
85% of the theoretical maximum heart rate.
Life Fitness offers five exclusive workouts designed to take full
advantage of the benefits of Heart Rate Zone Training.* The
effect of the exercise activities can be varied by switching
between the Fat Burn and Cardio workouts at any time during
a workout, or by entering a new target heart rate with the Up
or Down Arrow keys.
Both the Fat Burn and Cardio workouts measure heart rate. By wearing the telemetry heart rate chest strap, your heart rate will be
transmitted to the on-board computer continuously. With this information, the resistance level will automatically adjust to maintain the
target heart rate based on the actual heart rate.
Defined by the American College of Sports Medicines Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription as 220 minus the users age.
* The X5i comes standard with a Polar Heart Rate chest strap and 5 Zone Training workouts. On the X5, the heart rate chest strap is
optional with the purchase of the Heart Rate Receiver/Accessory Tray Kit. This option includes 2 Zone Training workouts (Cardio and
Fat Burn).
17
5.2 HEART RATE MONITORING
THE HEART RATE CHEST STRAP
The Heart Rate Chest Strap allows the built-in Polar
®
telemetry
heart rate feature to continuously monitor your heart rate.*
In many workouts, it also adjusts aspects of the workout
such as resistance level.
To begin, wet the transmitter electrodes (A), (the two grooved
surfaces on the underside of the strap) and secure the strap
as high under the chest muscles as possible. The strap
should be snug, but comfortable enough to allow for normal
breathing.
The transmitter strap will deliver an optimum heart rate
reading when the electrodes are directly in contact with bare
skin. However, it will function properly through wet,
lightweight clothing.
The key to proper operation is for the electrodes to remain moist in order to transmit the electrical impulses of the heart back to
the receiver.
If it becomes necessary to remoisten the chest strap electrodes, simply grasp the center of the strap, pull it away from the chest
to expose the two electrodes, then moisten them in this position.
6. CORRECT USAGE
6.1 LOWER BODY VS. TOTAL BODY
This product allows you to include an upper-body workout with your lower-body exercise. The benefits of this option are twofold.
First, you are able to reach your target heart rate faster and stay in your target zone. Second, by including the upper-body in your
cardiovascular workout you are not only burning fat, you are also toning the muscles of your arms, chest, and back.
6.2 BIOMECHANICAL GUIDELINES
There are four exercise variations that can be performed on the Cross-Trainer. For each variation, it is important to follow these
general biomechanical guidelines as well as the specific instructions listed below.
6.2.1 G
ENERAL
 Feet should be in a comfortable position facing forward on the pedals so the knees move in a forward plane (not angled inward or
outward) and so the hips do not rotate outward.
Keep back straight. Do not bend forward at the waist.
Keep both feet on the pedals at all times.
If desired, allow heels to slightly lift off the pedals during the motion.
Do not lock knees during the workout. Keep them slightly bent throughout the motion.
6.2.2 FORWARD MOTION LOWER BODY
 Mount the Cross-Trainer facing forward
 Hands should be positioned comfortably on the center stationary handle
Choose the desired workout profile and duration on the console
 Begin moving feet in a smooth forward pedaling motion by pushing top foot forward and pulling bottom foot backward
 Exercise at a speed that is comfortable for you
* The X5i comes standard with a Polar Heart Rate chest strap and 5 Zone Training workouts. On the X5, the heart rate chest strap
is optional with the purchase of the Heart Rate Receiver/Accessory Tray Kit. This option includes 2 Zone Training workouts (Cardio
and Fat Burn).
7.1 WORKOUT DESCRIPTIONS
Selecting a Life Fitness workout is as easy as pressing a key.
The following are preprogrammed workouts for this Life Fitness product.
7.1.1 MANUAL/QUICKSTART
QuickStart
is the fastest way to begin exercising and allows you to start a Manual workout by just pressing one key.
7.1.2 ZONE TRAINING
These workouts combine the effectiveness of Interval Training with the accuracy of Heart Rate Zone Training. A recommended
workout heart rate is calculated for you based on your age. You are shown this value and asked to accept or change it using the
Arrow Keys and/or Enter Key. If you accept this number, it becomes the upper value of your workout zone. The lower value of this
zone is automatically calculated based on which program you have selected. During the workout, your Heart Rate Zone is tracked to
see how long you stay in the zone.
7.1.3 FAT BURN
On featured Life Fitness cardiovascular equipment, The Fat Burn workout focuses on Heart Rate Zone Training at a level that
maximizes the use of your bodys fat stores for fuel. Using a heart rate chest strap (standard on X5i; optional on X5) helps you
maintain a specific heart rate (65% of a theoretical maximum heart rate
) within a target zone based on your age. The result is
a perfect workout every time, eliminating both under- and over-training...and the need to monitor your workout, because your
Life Fitness unit responds to the heart rate and adjusts the workout accordingly.
NOTE: (For all Heart Rate Control Programs)
The Cross-Trainer varies resistance automatically to keep your HR in the target zone. In order to assure proper
variation its important the user maintains a constant R.P.M. (speed).

7.1.4 CARDIO
The Cardio workout is virtually identical to the Fat Burn workout except for a higher target heart rate, (80% of the theoretical maximum
heart rate
), which places a heavier workload on the heart muscle to promote cardiovascular improvement. To add variety and extend
the focus of exercise benefits, switch between the Fat Burn and Cardio programs during your workout.
7.1.5 HEART RATE HILL AND
HEART RATE INTERVAL WORKOUTS
These workouts combine both the standard Hill Workout with the
Fat Burn and Cardio workouts. After you enter your age a
recommended workout heart rate is calculated for you. If you want
to change the value before you begin your workout, use the Arrow
Keys. To accept it, use the Enter Key. This value then becomes the
upper value of your workout zone. The lower values of this zone are
automatically calculated based on which program you selected.
During the workout, your Heart Rate Zone is tracked to see how
long you stay in your zone.
HEART RATE HILL takes you through 3 progressively intense
workout levels based on your target heart rate. Climbing Hill #1, you
are challenged to reach the first heart rate goal of 90%. If this goal
is met, a new goal of 95% THR is set for Hill #2. Meet this goal and
you move on to Hill #3 which is your full target heart rate. In between
hills, you can rest in the valley at 85% of your THR.
The time, or duration you spend at each given heart rate goal is fixed at 1 minute once you reach your goal. However, if you dont
reach the given goal, you wont encounter any higher goals. Your fitness level determines the number of hills and valleys you
encounter. Depending the time you set, plus how fast and how high you climb, your workout can end during any Target Heart Rate
period.
HEART RATE INTERVAL workout leads you through 2 intensity
levels based on your target heart rate. The set duration of the hills
and valleys is 3 minutes each after you reach your current goal.
Therefore, your fitness level determines the number of hills and
valleys you encounter.
Once time is up, you go into Cool-Down mode automatically.

7. THE WORKOUTS(CONTINUED)
7.1.6 EXTREME HR W
ORKOUT
EXTREME HR Workout is an intense workout for more
experienced users. This workout is used to add variety to your
workout and break through training plateaus. Like running
sprints, this exercise raises and lowers your heart rate between
two different goals. The objective is to get your heart rate up
and down as quickly as possible. Youll begin with a standard
3-minute warm up. After warm-up, the resistance is ramped up
until the heart rate reaches your Target Heart Rate. This pace is
then maintained during stabilizing period. Following this, the
resistance is reduced to your lower level. When your heart rate
recovers to 75% THR, it is maintained there for a stabilizing
period. Then, the cross-trainer again ramps the resistance back
up until your heart rate reaches the THR. This will continue until
the workout time youve set is ended.
7.1.7 SPORT TRAINING
Sport Training is based on a random workout with smoother transitions between hills and valleys. This workout simulates conditions
experienced outdoors and is a true athletic challenge for all fitness levels.
Whatever level you choose defines the baseline (flat ground) for your workout. Any level above baseline simulates uphill conditions.
Any level below baseline simulates going downhill.
7.1.8 RANDOM
RANDOM gives you a workout with an endless variety of changing resistance levels and patterns. The Life Fitness on-board
computer randomly selects hill and valley terrain which varies with each and every workout, resulting in more than one million
combinations. Because resistance levels are greater here than in the Hill workout, it is recommended that you set your workout level
one or two levels below the workout level you would normally select for the Hill workout.
7.1.9 MANUAL
MANUAL is a steady-pace workout that lets you change the resistance at any time during your workout. The resistance levels here
are equal to those of the highest hill encountered in the Hill workout at the same effort level. Therefore, it is recommended you start
the Manual workout at about three to four levels lower than the level you normally use on the Hill workout. Remember, you can
always increase or decrease your resistance at any time.
Use the Manual workout to create your own personal
interval training workout by varying the level of effort
during the course of the workout session. Just work at
a high level until the upper end of the target heart rate
zone is reached. Then lower the level and pedal until
your heart rate drops to the bottom of the target zone.
Now, raise the level again until the heart rate rises
back to the top of your target zone. Repeating this process will actually create hills and valleys.
7.1.10 EZ RESISTANCE
EZ RESISTANCE Workout is an incline-based workout simulated by using resistance that makes working out more enjoyable. As
you work out, the gradual changes in resistance as you climb the hill are so subtle, you dont realize youre working harder.
The peak of the hill is directly related to your chosen level and will be reached after 75% of your workout duration. Then, the
resistance will start moving back down to zero percent. The result is an effective and efficient cardiovascular workout thats enjoyable
from the first step to the last.
7.1.11 COOL-DOWN
Life Fitness unique Cool-Down sequence automatically customizes every cool-down to balance your workout performance. Factors
such as resistance and duration are considered in determining the duration and intensity of the cool-down. If you like, you can
manually adjust Cool-Down resistance levels by continually pressing the Cool-Down button.
7. THE WORKOUTS(CONTINUED)
7.1.12 HILL
The Life Fitness patented Hill workout offers the ideal configuration for
interval training: periods of intense aerobic activity separated by regular
intervals of lower-intensity exercise. The computerized interval training
workout has been scientifically demonstrated to yield greater
cardiorespiratory improvement than steady-pace training. Not only does the
Hill workout offer the challenge of alternating periods of high and low
intensity, but the levels of intensity become progressively more difficult during
the course of the workout. The longer the Hill workout, the more amount of
time spent on top of a hill and at the bottom of a valley.
PHASES
Each Hill workout session comprises the following phases:
(1) Warm-up, (2) Plateau, (3) Interval Training, and (4) Cool-down.
NOTE: Check the pulse at the Heart Rate (HR) Check Points (following the Plateau and Interval Training phases) to ensure that the
heart rate has entered and remained within the target heart rate zone.
Warm-up: Gradually brings up the heart rate, increasing respiration and blood flow to working muscles.
Plateau: Increases heart rate so that it is within target zone. Check the heart rate to ensure that it has entered the target zone.
Interval Training: A series of hills and valleys. During this portion of the workout, the user is confronted with a series of successively
steeper hills, each separated from the next by a valley or recovery period. Check the heart rate to ensure that it has remained within
the target zone.
Cool-down: The cool-down allows the body to begin removing accumulated by-products of exercise, such as lactic acid, which build
up in muscles during a workout and contribute to muscle soreness.
Effort and recovery periods are simulated on the display console by columns of red lights in the workout Profile window. Each column
represents one interval and 20 intervals comprise the workout. The columns move from right to left during the workout. The higher the
column, the higher the resistance. Consequently, the effort must be increased to continue training.
1 to 9 minutes: Because workouts with durations of less than 10 minutes are insufficient for the Hill workout to complete all four
phases adequately, the workout condenses at various stages in order to meet the chosen workout time.
10 to 19 minutes: The interval durations are initially set at 30 seconds for a 10-minute workout. For every additional minute of
workout duration, the Hill workout lengthens each interval by three seconds. Thus, a 15-minute Hill workout will feature 20 intervals of
45 seconds each.
20 to 99 minutes: All intervals last 60 seconds. As minutes are added, additional hills and valleys are presented beyond the initial
four of the interval training phase. The additional hills and valleys will follow the form of the first four, dropping back down to the level
of the very first hill encountered and progressing in height every two minutes until the highest hill is reached again. This process
repeats until the workout duration is met.
7.1.13 C
ROSS-TRAIN AEROBIC (X5IONLY)
This workout makes the most of the Life Fitness Cross-Trainers total body workout capabilities by leading the user through a varied
workout that exercises all the major muscle groups.
For an upper body workout that works all the muscles in the arms, the console directs the user to push and pull the handlebar arms at
various times. The console will also vary the workout between total body and lower-body-only workouts, during which the user rests
his or her hands on the stationary handlebar.
To maximize a lower-body workout, forward and reverse motions and speeds are alternated, working all the muscles in the legs
during a single exercise session.
This Cross-Trainer workout uses one, selectable resistance level. However, it can be made into a variable resistance workout by
selecting the Hill, Manual or Random program first, then, pressing the Aerobics Mode key on the console.
7.1.14 CROSS-TRAIN REVERSE (ALL MODELS)
To vary the Cross-Trainer exercise and maximize the lower-body workout, the Cross-Train Reverse workout directs the user to use a
forward motion for five minutes followed by backward motion for two minutes. By making the most of the Life Fitness Cross-Trainers
forward and reverse feature, this program provides an effective workout for the thighs,
calves, hips and buttocks.
NOTE: The Cross-Train Reverse workout is a single resistance program. However, it can be made into a variable resistance
workout by first selecting the Hill, Manual or Random program, then, pressing the Reverse Mode key on the console after
starting the workout.
