HOW TO PEDAL
1. Secure the Velcro pedal straps to your feet.
2. Start pushing downward on the pedal when the pedal arm is at its
highest position.
3. Stop pedaling when the pedal is at its lowest position.
4. Make sure to press downward with your feet while you are pedaling.
PRO TIP:
The included resistance bands provide a great way to exercise your
arms and legs at the same time. While you are pedaling, use the resistance
bands to do biceps curls, shoulder presses, and more!
PEDALING TIPS
Pedaling is easier when you keep your upper body still. Keep your back
straight--do not slouch in your chair.
1. Sit comfortably. If you feel there is not enough room for your legs to
pedal comfortably, push the elliptical farther away from you and/or
raise or lower your chair.
1. Use your legs to pedal, not your body.
2. Your head and upper body should not move while you are pedaling.
3. Don’t rock from side to side.
4. It is easier to keep your body still if you pedal downward by pressing
your feet downward--rather than forward--on the pedals.
ADJUSTING THE PEDAL RESISTANCE/TENSION
The Rove has eight levels of resistance (1–8). Level 1 is the lowest
resistance level and provides the easiest pedaling. Level 8 is the highest
resistance level and provides the most intense pedaling workout.
1. Turn the Tension Control Knob to the right or left to adjust the resistance
level. Align the arrow on the knob to the tension level you would like to
select.
2. Turn the knob to the right to increase the resistance level. Turn the knob
to the left to decrease the resistance level.
CREATING A CUSTOM PEDALING WORKOUT
Create a custom workout with your desired speed, intensity, and duration:
1. Adjust the pedal tension to your desired resistance level.
2. Place your feet flat on the pedals.
3. Begin pedaling, forwards or backwards, at your desired speed. You can
check your speed on the console. Speed is displayed in reps/min (strides/
minute).
4. Keep an eye on the console to track your workout duration.
