AEROBICS TRAINER (C9i ONLY)

In this workout, the MESSAGE CENTER continuously prompts the user to switch between a high pedaling speed and a low pedaling speed. These speed intervals alternate in a pattern that promotes a “build-up” in the intensity of the workout, followed by a “build-down” in intensity.

The workout consists of 32 intervals, which are divided into groups of four. In the first group, the user encounters one fast interval followed by three slow intervals. The second group features two fast intervals followed by two slow intervals. The third group features three fast intervals followed by one slow interval. The fourth group, which is the most intense point of the workout, features four fast intervals. Afterward, the workout decreases in intensity, concluding with a group of four, conscutive, slow intervals. See the chart below:

SIX PRE-SET WORKOUTS (C9i ONLY)

CASCADES, AROUND THE WORLD, FOOT HILLS, INTERVAL, KILIMANJARO, and SPEED TRAINING are variations of the HILL workout. These workouts cannot be changed “on the fly.”

AROUND THE WORLD is an interval-training workout in which the hills resemble scenes of various geographical areas.

CASCADES is a two-peak workout in which intensity levels gradually increase and decrease.

FOOT HILLS is a rolling hill workout with low intensity levels.

INTERVAL is a Hill workout in which intensity levels rise and fall. The higher levels gradually incline toward a peak and then gradually decline.

KILIMANJARO is a Hill workout in which the intensity levels gradually incline toward one ultimate peak and then gradually decline.

SPEED TRAINING is a Hill workout in which the intensity level alternates between high and low levels very quickly to simulate a typical speed-training workout.
