FITNESS
BIKE
PRESET PROGRAMS
The fitness bike has five different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts.
These five programs have factory preset work level profiles for achieving different goals.
Hill
The
Hill
program simulates going up and down a hill. The resistance in the pedals will
steadily increase and then decrease during the program.
B74/R72 WORK
Fat Burn
The
Fat Burn
program is designed, as the name implies, to maximize the burning of fat. There are many schools
of thought on the best way to burn fat but most experts agree that a lower exertion level that stays at a steady
workload is the best. The absolute best way to burn fat is to keep your heart rate at around 60% to 70% of its
maximum potential. This program does not use heart rate but simulates a lower, steady exertion workout.
B74/R72 WORK
Cardio
The
Cardio
program is designed to increase your cardiovascular function and endurance. This is exercise for
your heart and lungs. It will build up your heart muscle and increase blood flow and lung capacity. This is
achieved by incorporating a higher level of exertion with slight fluctuations in work.
B74/R72 WORK
Strength
The
Strength
program is designed to increase muscular strength in your lower body. This program will steadily
increase in resistance to a high level and forces you to sustain it. This is designed to strengthen and tone your
legs and glutes (muscles of the butt).
B74/R72 WORK
Interval
The
Interval
program takes you through high levels of intensity followed by periods of low intensity. This
program increases your endurance by depleting your oxygen level followed by periods of recovery to replenish
oxygen. Your cardiovascular system gets programmed to use oxygen more efficiently this way. This program
also forces your body to become more efficient due to spikes in heart rate, between recovery periods. This aids
in heart rate recovery from intense activities.
