Tune up for the local race or set your sight on blasting a 

bunch of calories! The Goal program incorporates great

informed as to how much more you have to go until your 

reach your GOAL!

Power Type (Watts)

Workout Time (30:00)

Lateral Width (6)

Age (40)

Weight (150 lbs./68 kg)

Watts (125) or METs (7.0)

Set a target power output and let the machine keep you 

there by varying resistance level relative to your speed. 

Power output is measured in watts or metabolic equivalent 

units (METs). Watts represent the amount of power 

required by the machine to maintain the workload (pedal 

resistance and speed) that you want to experience. METs 

represent the ratio of a person’s working metabolic rate 

relative to that person’s resting metabolic rate. One MET 

is approximately equal to 1 kilocalorie burned per kilogram 

per hour. The higher the power output value, the more 

difficult the workout.
