Performance Index
Technogym's cardiovascular training equipment displays a proprietary Performance Index (P.I.) when used in conjunction with a Heart rate monitor. Results are displayed on a scale from 0 to 99 with higher numbers indicating stronger performance. Results are not directly comparable with other measures such as VO2 max. The ranges quoted in manuals are
| P.I. | Performance |
|---|---|
| Up to 10 | Poor |
| 11 to 20 | Fair |
| 21 to 30 | Good |
| 31 to 40 | Very good |
| Over 40 | Excellent |
