HOW THESE MODES WORK

CHAPTER THREE: PRE-SET WORKOUTS

Five different pre-set workouts are discussed below (HRC

Cruise Control is covered in Chapter 4):

Manual: this mode changes workload in 10-watt increments. The workload stays the same at any pedal cadence (called constant power control) unless you drop below 55 rpm. Below 55 rpm, workload is reduced along with pedal cadence, to prevent the sensation of the pedals “locking up.”

Random: creates a different program profile each time

you press the key.

Cardio Challenge: with the workload gradually rising until you reach the middle of your workout time, then gradually decreasing to the end.

Fat Burn: with a warm-up stage increasing to a

steady-state workload for the majority of the workout, then a cool-down at the end.

Hills: four work intervals separated by four rest intervals.

Sixteen different levels are available to change the difficulty of a pre-set workout. The workload intensities expand and contract depending on the level.
