HINTS AND TIPS FOR GETTING STARTED

The following hints and tips will assist in training your users to maximize the fitness benefits of your STAR TRAC PRO BIKE.

Pedal at a rate that feels comfortable and most natural, yet is sufficiently vigorous to get a good cardio workout.

Try different pedaling rhythms. In manual operation, vary your pedaling speed from slow to fast, then back to slow. As you become more comfortable with your bike, try pedaling faster, varying the resistance LEVEL, or using the preset programs.

Watch the Graphic Display to anticipate terrain changes. When you use the preset programs, the display shows changes in terrain as tall or short columns.
