3 THE WORKOUTS

3.1WORKOUT OVERVIEWS

This section lists the exercise bike’s pre-programmed workouts. For more detailed information, see Section 3.2, titled Setting Up and Using the Workouts.

QUICK START MANUAL MODE is the fastest way to begin exercising, and it bypasses the steps involved in selecting a specific workout program. After the START key is pressed, a constant-level workout begins. The resistance level does not change automatically.

INTERVAL combines “hills” and “valleys” of different resistance levels. Raising and lowering the heart rate in this manner is proven to efficiently promote fat burn and cardiovascular endurance.

RANDOM provides a completely random workout profile of “hills” and “valleys” every time the user selects this workout. Endless variety reduces boredom.

MANUAL is a workout in which the resistance level does not change automatically. PEAK maintains a constant resistance level throughout the workout. Intended to burn fat.

SLOPE gradually increases resistance so user is less aware of the physical demand. Helps user slowly build-up to higher resistance levels and improve cardiovascular endurance.

CHALLENGE maintains a high resistance level throughout the workout. Challenges the user to a high intensity workout that promotes cardiovascular endurance.
