How These Modes Work

 

Chapter Three: Pre-Set Workouts

Five different pre-set workouts are discussed below (HRC 

Cruise Control is covered in Chapter 4):

•  Manual

:  this mode changes workload in 10-watt 

increments. The workload stays the same at any pedal 

cadence (called constant power control) unless you drop 

below 55 rpm. Below 55 rpm, workload is reduced along 

with pedal cadence, to prevent the sensation of the pedals 

“locking up.”

     •     Random

: creates a different program profile each time  

 

you press the 

 key. 

 

     •     Cardio Challenge

: with the workload gradually rising  

 

until you reach the middle of your workout time, then 

             gradually decreasing to the end.

•  Fat Burn

:  with a warm-up stage increasing to a    

 steady-state workload for the majority of the workout,  

 then a cool-down at the end.

•  Hills

: four work intervals separated by four  

 

rest intervals.

Sixteen different levels are available to change the difficulty of a 

pre-set workout. The workload intensities expand and contract 

depending on the level.
