1 to 9 minutes: Because workouts with durations of less than 10 minutes are insufficient for the HILL workout to complete all four phases adequately, the profile is condensed at various stages.

10 to 19 minutes: The interval durations are initially set at 30 seconds for a 10-minute workout. For every additional minute of workout duration intervals lengthen by three seconds. Thus, a 15-minute HILL workout features 20 intervals of 45 seconds each.

20 to 99 minutes: All intervals last 60 seconds. As minutes are added, additional hills and valleys are presented beyond the initial four of the interval training phase. The additional hills and valleys will follow the form of the first four, dropping back down to the level of the very first hill encountered and progressing in height every two minutes until the highest hill is reached again. This process repeats until the end of the duration.

RANDOM

The RANDOM workout creates a terrain of hills and valleys that varies with each workout. More than one million different patterns are possible.

SPORTS TRAINING WORKOUT

SPORTS TRAINING is based on a random workout with smoother transitions between hills and valleys. This workout simulates conditions experienced outdoors and is a true athletic challenge for all fitness levels. Whatever level you choose defines the baseline (flat ground) for your workout. Any level above baseline simulates uphill conditions. Any level below baseline simulates going downhill.

EZ RESISTANCE

In this workout, the changes in resistance are extremely subtle, lowering perceived exertion. The changes in resistance also are independent of the user’s pedaling speed. The cardiovascular workout is effective, efficient, and enjoyable at the same time.
