USING THE SPRINT 8 PROGRAMThe SPRINT 8 program is an anaerobic interval program designed tobuild muscle, improve speed, and naturally increase the release of HumanGrowth Hormone (HGH) in your body. Producing HGH through exerciseand a proper diet has been shown as an effective way to burn fat andbuild lean muscle mass according to Phil Campbell, author of Ready, Set,Go! Synergy Fitness. Please go to Mr. Campbell’s website,www.readysetgofitness.com, for more details about this radical newapproach to fitness.The SPRINT 8 program features intense sprint intervals followed byrecovery intervals. The program includes the following phases:1.WARM-UP (3:00) should gradually increase your heart rate andDELUXEincrease respiration and blood flow to working muscles.The warm-up is controlled by the user to meet your specific needs.2. INTERVAL TRAINING (14:30) starts immediately after the warm-upwith a 30-second sprint interval; changing both speed andelevation. Seven recovery intervals of one minute and 30 secondswill alternate with the eight 30-second sprint intervals. The sprintswill increase speed and elevation at the 3rd and 5th interval. Therecovery speed is about 2–3 mph slower than your sprint and therecovery elevation is 0. You can alter your speed using the SpeedQuick Keys or SPEED UP and DOWN arrows. To adjust theelevation; simply use the Elevation Quick Keys or ELEVATION UPand DOWN arrows.3. COOL-DOWN (2:30) helps return your body’s systems to restinglevels. Less demand is placed on your heart during recovery if anappropriate cool-down is used following the exercise.In order to keep track of each segment/interval, the segment time iscounted down in the timer. It takes only 20 minutes to complete theSPRINT 8 workout.32
