Schwinn 131 Upright manual  Console Adjustment,  Resistance adjustment,  Lower body workout

Console Adjustment

The upright and recumbent bikes both feature a tilt-adjustable console that enables you to customize your own viewing angle. To adjust the console tilt position, loosen the knob, move the console to one of the three available tilt positions and re-tighten.

Resistance adjustment

Using the console, you have control over the levels of resistance integrat- ed into your workout. Typically, lower resistance levels enable you to move at a faster pace, placing increased demand on your cardiovascular system. Higher resistance levels will typically deliver more of a muscle / endurance workout at lower RPMs. But everyone is different! So experiment and find the beginning of resistance that is comfortable for you.

Lower body workout

Once you are in position and sitting comfortably, slowly begin pedaling, with your arms relaxed and with your hands resting on the hand grips. Pedal at an easy pace, at a low resistance level until you feel comfortable and secure. As you feel more comfortable, experiment with the range of resistance levels available via the console.
