The objective of the circuit program is to move the heart rate into your "Target Zone" and maintain it in that zone for the
30 minute workout.
While it is possible to push the heart rate higher, risks increase.
Excessive heart rates interfere with the effective pumping action of the heart and can lead to heart failure.
Every five minutes during the Exercircles workout a voice prompt asks for a
pulse check and provides a count of seconds. Participates can read their pulse rate off of a chart.
Emphasis is on a safe and effective level of cardio effort.
