training elements. Choose from Intervals, Constant Watts, Target Heart Rate and % Target Heart Rate workout
programs.
CUSTOM:
1) Select CUSTOM 1 or CUSTOM 2 using and press .
2) Set the workout time using and press .
3) Use to set the RESISTANCE level for each segment. Press to confirm.
4) Press to begin workout.
TARGET HEART RATE
The first step in knowing the right intensity for your training is to find out your maximum heart rate (max HR = 220 – your
age). The age-based method provides an average statistical prediction of your max HR and is a good method for the
majority of people, especially those new to heart rate training. The most precise and accurate way of determining your
individual max HR is to have it clinically tested by a cardiologist or exercise physiologist through the use of a maximal stress
test. If you are over the age of 40, overweight, have been sedentary for several years, or have a history of heart disease in
your family, clinical testing is recommended.
This chart gives examples of the heart
rate range for a 30 year old exercising at
5 different heart rate zones. For example,
a 30-year-old’s max HR is 220 – 30 = 190
bpm and 90% max HR is 190 × 0.9 = 171
bpm.
TARGET HEART RATE NOTES:
• Warm-up and cool-down each last
4 minutes.
• After 4 minutes, the resistance will
automatically adjust to bring you near
