How To Effectively Workout At Your Own Level
InZone
TM
system provides visual colour feedback through the skirting light. The different colors encourage users to optimize their workout
efforts for maximum results based on heart rate level, and helps users to stay in their target heart rate zones. The InZone™ system detects
heart rate by i) holding onto the contact heart rate plates or ii) by wearing a telemetry heart rate chest strap sensor. It is recommended that
users wear a telemetry heart rate chest strap for this function. During a workout there are 4 different colours that represent a workout intensity.

PLEASE NOTE
The Intenza Bikes’ heart rate function is
intended only for use as an exercise aide. Various factors
can affect the accuracy of your heart rate reading. The heart
rate function of the Intenza Bikes should not be considered,
or used, as a medical device.
GREEN. THE ENERGY EFFICIENT OR RECOVERY ZONE 55%
—
65%
Training within this zone develops basic endurance and aerobic capacity. All low intensity running should be completed at a maximum of
65%.
YELLOW. THE AEROBIC ZONE 65% TO 75%
Training in this zone may improve your cardiovascular system. The body’s ability to transport oxygen and carbon dioxide to and away from
the working muscles may developed and improved.
ORANGE. THE ANAEROBIC ZONE 75%
—
85%
Training in this zone may develop your lactic acid system. In this zone, your individual anaerobic threshold (AT), sometimes referred to as the
point of deflection (POD), is found. In the heart rate zone, the amount of fat being utilized as the main source of energy is greatly reduced
and glycogen stored in the muscle is predominantly used. One of the by—products of burning glycogen is lactic acid. The point at which the
body can no longer quickly remove the lactic acid from the working muscles is your anaerobic threshold (AT). Through the correct training,
it is possible to delay the AT by being able to increase your ability to deal with the lactic acid for a longer period of time or by improving your
AT level.
RED. THE EXTREME ZONE 85%
—
100%
The Red is a high intensity work out. It effectively trains your fast twitch muscle fibres and helps to develop speed. This zone is reserved for
interval cycling .
