WATTS (WHEN ENABLED)

This workout targets a rate of effort equal to a certain number of Watts. A Watt is a unit of power that measures the amount of mechanical work required to operate a device, such as a stair- climber. It is roughly equal to 0.25 calories per hour. The workout automatically alters the intensi- ty level to maintain the appropriate rate of effort. For information on enabling this workout, see Section 5, titled Optional Settings.

METS (WHEN ENABLED)

This workout targets a rate of effort equal to a certain number of Mets. A Met is a unit of mea- surement used to express the metabolic rate of work (oxygen consumption per unit of body weight) required to perform a task. The workout automatically alters the intensity level to main- tain the appropriate rate of effort. For information on enabling this workout, see Section 5, titled Optional Settings.

SIX PRE-SET WORKOUTS (93S ONLY)

AROUND THE WORLD, KILIMANJARO, INTERVAL, CASCADES, SPEED TRAINING, and FOOT HILLS 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.

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

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

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

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