This section lists the Lifecycle recumbent bike’s pre-programmed workouts. For more detailed
information, see Section 4.2, titled
Using the Workouts
. The following workouts are accessed
with the ARROW keys.
QUICK START
is the fastest way to begin exercising, and it bypasses the steps involved in
selecting a specific workout program. After the QUICK START key is pressed, a constant-level
workout begins. The intensity level does not change automatically.
HILL
is an interval-training workout combining “hills” and “valleys” of different intensity levels,
which is proven to provide effective, time-efficient cardiovascular results.
FAT BURN
is a low-intensity workout for burning the body’s fat reserves. The user must wear
a Polar heart rate chest strap. The workout program automaticaly adjusts the intensity level,
based on the actual heart rate, to maintain the rate at
65
percent of the theoretical maximum
†
.
CARDIO
is a higher intensity workout for more fit users, emphasizing cardiovascular benefits
and maximum fat burning. The user must wear a Polar heart rate chest strap. The workout pro-
gram automatically adjusts the intensity level, based on the actual heart rate, to maintain the rate
at
80
percent of the theoretical maximum.
RANDOM
is an interval training workout of constantly changing intensity levels that occur in no
regular pattern or progression.
MANUAL
is a workout in which the intensity level does not change automatically.
HEART RATE HILL
TM
takes the user through three different hills based on the target heart rate*. The
user wears a heart rate chest strap, or grasps the Lifepulse
TM
sensors continuously.
HEART RATE INTERVAL
TM
alternates between a hill and a valley based on the target heart rate*. The
user wears a heart rate chest strap, or grasps the Lifepulse
TM
sensors continuously.
EXTREME HEART RATE
TM
is an intense workout for more experienced users. It is designed to get
the heart rate up and down as quickly as possible. The user wears a heart rate chest strap, or grasps
the Lifepulse
TM
sensors continuously.
†
Defined by the American College of Sports Medicine's "Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription" as equal to
220 minus an individual’s age.
* Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the
CARDIO
workout is 144. This workout targets 80 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.80=144.
