CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION

Your new CS8.0 bike console is the most sophisticated exercise computer in the fitness industry. Even the simplest operation, Manual Control, works in a special and useful way. But the CS8.0 console is also extremely easy to use; the user can ignore all the fancy stuff and use it with just one or two keystrokes.

Smart Start: Intelligently picks useful workout settings — every workout, even an advanced one, is easy to set up.

Always-available Workout Setup: Switch to this at any time in any workout. Adjust your current workout settings, or set up a whole new workout.

Calorie Goal: Tell the bike how many calories you want to burn and how long you want to work out, and the bike figures out what workloads you need to maintain — including warmup and cool down.

Constant Heart Rate Control: The bike takes you to your target heart rate within five to eight minutes, then keeps you there.

Interval Heart Rate Control: Pick both a work target HR and a rest target HR, and the bike will take you back and forth be- tween those two targets.

Fitness Test: An enhanced version of the YMCA protocol to estimate maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max).

Bicycle Simulation: An accurate simulation of a 21-gear road bike, including precise pedal cadence-to-speed response and body weight compensation.
