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
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
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
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
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
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.
