FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features designed to make your workouts more effective and enjoyable. When you select the manual mode of the console, you can change the resistance of the pedals with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the con­sole will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor.
The console also offers eighteen preset programs. Each program automatically changes the resistance of the pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease your pedaling pace as it guides you through an effec­tive workout.
In addition, the console features two heart rate pro­grams that change the resistance of the pedals to keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings while you exercise.
The console also features the new iFIT Interactive Workout System. The iFIT Interactive Workout System
enables the console to accept iFIT Cards containing workout programs designed to help you achieve spe­cific fitness goals. For example, lose unwanted pounds with the 8-week Weight Loss program. iFIT programs control the resistance of the pedals while the voice of a personal trainer coaches you and moti­vates you through your workouts. One iFIT Card with three new programs is included. Additional iFIT Cards are available separately. To purchase iFIT Cards, go
to www.iFIT.com or call the toll-free telephone number on the front cover of this manual. iFIT Cards are also available at select stores.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player to the console’s stereo sound system and listen to your favorite workout music or audio books while you exercise.
To use the manual mode of the console, follow the steps beginning on page 12. To use a preset pro- gram, see page 14. To use a heart rate program, see page 15. To use an iFIT program, see page 16.

To select one of the six weight loss programs, press the Weight Loss Programs button repeated­ly; to select one of the six aerobic fitness pro­grams, press the Aerobic Fitness Programs button; to select one of the six competition programs, press the Competition Programs button.
When you select a preset program, the name of the program will appear in the display for a few seconds. A profile of the resistance settings of the program will then appear in the display. The dis­play will also show the first resistance setting for the program for a few seconds.
3. Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into 20, 30, or 45 one­minute segments. One resistance setting and one target pace setting are programmed for each seg­ment. Note: The same resistance setting and/or target pace setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments.
During the program, the program profile will show your progress (see the drawing above). The flash­ing column of the profile represents the current segment of the program. The height of the flashing column indicates the resistance setting for the cur­rent segment. At the end of each segment of the program, a series of tones will sound and the next segment of the profile will begin to flash. If a differ­ent resistance setting is programmed for the next segment, the resistance setting will appear in the display for a few seconds to alert you. The resis­tance of the pedals will then change.
As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep your pedaling pace near the target pace setting for the cur­rent segment. When an upward-pointing arrow appears in the display, increase your pace. When a downward-pointing arrow appears, decrease your pace. When no arrow appears, maintain your current pace.
Important: The target pace settings are intend­ed only to provide motivation. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.
If the resistance setting for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by pressing the OneTouch Resistance but­tons. However, when the current segment ends, the pedals will automatically adjust to the resis­tance setting for the next segment.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series of tones will sound and the program will pause. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling. The program will continue until the last segment of the profile flashes and the last segment of the pro­gram ends.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
During the program, the display will show the pro­gram profile, your pedaling speed, and the dis­tance that you have pedaled.
To view the time remaining in the program instead of the program profile, press the Display button.
To view the approximate number of calories that you are burning per hour and the approximate number of calories that you have burned during your workout, press the Display button again.
To view the program profile again, press the Display button again.

2. Select a heart rate program.
To select one of the heart rate programs, press the Heart Rate Programs button repeatedly until the words HEART RATE 1 or HEART RATE 2 appear in the display.
3. Enter a target heart rate setting.
A few seconds after you select a heart rate pro­gram, the words ENTER HEART RATE will appear in the display and the number 110 will begin to flash.
During heart rate program 1, the same target heart rate setting will be programmed for all seg­ments of the program. If you have selected heart rate program 1, press the increase and decrease buttons below the Odometer button to enter the desired target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 18).
During heart rate program 2, different target heart rate settings will be programmed for different segments of the program. If you have selected heart rate program 2, press the increase and decrease buttons below the Odometer button to enter the desired maximum target heart rate set­ting for the program (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 18).
4. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sen­sor continuously during heart rate programs; how­ever, you should hold the handgrip pulse sensor frequently for the programs to operate properly.
Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30 seconds.
5. Begin pedaling to start the program.
Heart rate program 1 is divided into 40 one-
minute segments. Note: For a shorter workout, stop exercising or select a different program before the program ends.
Heart rate program 2 is divided into 30 one­minute segments. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. Note: The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for consecutive segments.
During the program, the program profile in the dis­play will show your progress. The flashing column of the profile represents the current segment of the program. The height of the flashing column indi­cates the target heart rate setting for the current segment. At the end of each segment of the pro­gram, a series of tones will sound and the next segment of the profile will begin to flash.
During both programs, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the target heart rate setting for the current segment of the program. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. Each time the resistance changes, the resistance setting will appear in the display for a few seconds to alert you.
While you exercise, you will be prompted to main­tain a constant pedaling pace. If an upward-point­ing arrow appears in the display (see the drawing above), increase your pace. If a downward-point­ing arrow appears, decrease your pace. When no arrow appears, maintain your current pace.
If the resistance setting for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by pressing the OneTouch Resistance but­tons. However, when the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting, the resis­tance of the pedals may automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the tar­get heart rate setting.

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten­sity is the key to achieving results. You can use your heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.
To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near­est ten years). The three numbers listed above your age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer­cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses
carbohydrate calories
for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored
fat calories
for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your heart rate near the middle number in your training zone.
Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Warming up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.
Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min­utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise–never hold your breath.
Cooling down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exer­cise, you may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING: Before beginning
this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is intended only as an exercise aid in determin­ing heart rate trends in general.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and back.
2. Hamstring Stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and groin.
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons and ankles.
4. Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
5. Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
