Your fitness equipment includes a wide selection of workouts
that are carefully designed to make sure you get the best
results out of every workout.
The human body is extremely efficient. If it makes the same
motion regularly over many days or weeks, it learns to make
that motion with less and less effort. This process, called
muscle adaptation , has one drawback—the longer you stick to
the same workout, the less good that workout does you.
To prevent muscle adaptation from setting in as you work out,
try different kinds of workouts on different days. By keeping
your muscles guessing, you’ll keep your energy use up,
promoting faster weight loss and better conditioning.
The workouts in the following table are available on units
equipped with the P10 console.
