Steady State workouts
A Steady State workout involves slowly increasing your workout speed to a challenging, but comfortable, speed you can hold for most of your work-
out.GettingyourHeartRateupintotheFat-Burning,HeartZonezoneforanentireworkoutwouldbeagreatSteadyStateworkout.Forexample,

Interval Training workouts
AnIntervalTrainingworkoutinvolvesadjustingyourworkoutintensityforspeciclengthsoftimetoraiseandloweryourbreathingrate,heartrate
and calorie burn. This form of workout allows you to burn more calories than a standard workout in a shorter period of time. Using the Calorie Burn
Rate display, you can adjust the intensity of your workout quickly to achieve your goals.
TheBowexMaxTrainer

cardiomachinecombines8“ACTIVE”and8“REST”segmentstocreateanIntervalworkout.Duringan“ACTIVE”
segment, push yourself to a level of high calorie burn that can be repeated for the 8 segments. Then during the “REST” segments, allow yourself
todecreasetheintensityandprepareforthenext“ACTIVE”segment.Theseextremechangesinintensity,alongwithpushingyourbodytoward

TheBowexMaxTrainer
®
cardio machine is designed to cushion your joints and muscles, and both Steady State and Interval Training workouts
should feel much more comfortable than walking or running outside on a hard surface or a treadmill.
After Burn Rate
AttheendofanintenseIntervalTrainingworkout,yourbodywillactuallyneedtoexpendadditionalenergytoreplenishyourbody’sreserves.This
additionalamountofenergythatyourbodywillbeusingistheAfterBurnRate,orEPOC(ExcessPost-exerciseOxygenConsumption).Thelevelof
thisadditionalenergyrequirementforyourbodyisdirectlyrelatedtomanyfactors.Somefactorsareyourphysicaltnesslevel,intensitylevelofthe
intervaltrainingworkout,lengthofoxygendeprivationduringtheworkout,andphysicaldemandsduringtherecoveryphase.
In summary, your body will be burning more calories for hours after your workout. So after an intense MAX Interval workout, you may feel the effects
for hours afterwards.
