PRESET PROGRAMS
The 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
RESISTANCE
Resistance: This program follows a triangle or pyramid type of
gradual progression from approximately 10% of maximum effort
(the level that you chose before starting this program) up to a
maximum effort which lasts for 10% of the total workout time,
then a gradual regression of resistance back to approximately
10% of maximum effort.
FAT BURN
RESISTANCE
Resistance: This program follows a quick progression up to the
maximum resistance level (default or user input level) that is
sustained for 2/3 of the workout. This program will challenge your
ability to sustain your energy output for an extended period of
time.
CARDIO
RESISTANCE
Resistance: This program presents a quick progression up to
near maximum resistance level (default or user input level). It
has slight fluctuations up and down to allow your heart rate to
elevate, and then recover repeatedly, before beginning a quick
cool down. This will build up your heart muscle and increase
blood flow and lung capacity
STRENGTH
RESISTANCE
Resistance: This program has a gradual progression of
resistance up to 100% of maximum effort that is sustained for
25% of workout duration. This will help build strength and
muscular endurance in the lower body and gluts. A brief cool
down follows.
.
INTERVAL
RESISTANCE
Resistance: This program takes you through high levels of
intensity followed by recovery periods of low intensity. This
program utilizes and develops your ”Fast Twitch” muscle fibers
which are used when performing tasks that are intense and short
in duration. These deplete your oxygen level and spike your
heart rate, followed by periods of recovery and heart rate drop to replenish oxygen. Your
cardiovascular system gets programmed to use oxygen more efficiently.
