Choosing a Program

Choosing a program depends on your goals. If you are a beginner or returning to regular exercise, you can start a cardio-conditioning program to slowly return your body to a comfortable level of exercise. If you have been exercising and feel that you have an intermediate or advanced fitness level, you probably have established goals. The Precor website (www.precor.com) can give you many ideas about fitness workouts and advice from the experts.

Several workout choices on the cycle are preprogrammed with recommendations for the resistance and alternating rest or work intervals. You always have the option to override the suggested levels with the exception of the Heart Rate Control Program.

You must wear a heart rate monitor to activate the Heart Rate display.

Diagram 5: C842i program label

This section describes the programs printed on the C842i display console.

If your level of exertion becomes too great, reduce your pedaling speed (RPM) or use the arrow keys to override the resistance in each upcoming column in the program profile. If you use the RESISTANCE arrow keys, the profile changes accordingly.
