HOW TO USE THE TRAINING BIKE

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

This product must be grounded. If it should mal-

function or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The power cord has a plug with a grounding pin.

DANGER: Improper connection of

the power cord increases the risk of electric shock. Do not modify the plug; if it will not fit an outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. If you are unsure whether the product is properly grounded, contact a qualified electrician.

Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. The outlet must be on a nominal 120-volt circuit.

Grounded Outlet

Grounding Pin

A temporary adapter may be used to connect the power cord to a 2-pole receptacle as shown at the right if a properly grounded outlet is not available.

The lug or wire extending from the adapter must be connected with a metal screw to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.

Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not grounded. Before using an adapter, contact a qualified electrician to determine whether the outlet box cover is grounded before using an adapter. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.

FEATURES OF THE TRAINING BIKE

Measuring Watts

Each training bike is individually calibrated to measure your power output and allow you to monitor your watts and RPMs directly on the console.

HOW TO ADJUST THE GEOMETRY OF THE TRAINING BIKE

The training bike can be adjusted to promote correct form and to ensure proper training of the muscles.

Note: Make adjustments in small increments, and then pedal the training bike to test the adjustments.

By monitoring your watts and RPMs, you can see how hard you are training and make sure that you are challenging yourself and improving.

The Incline System

The training bike can incline and decline up to 15 percent to realistically simulate outdoor terrain. When you create maps of your actual training routes on iFit.com (see the console instructions beginning on page 17 for more information), the training bike will automatically incline and decline to match the terrain of your training routes.

Pedaling Form Features

The training bike has multiple features to help you develop correct pedaling form:

Freewheel—The training bike has a freewheel that simulates a road bike rather than a fixed-drive spin bike. This discourages you from letting your feet coast through the top and bottom of your pedal stroke.

Flywheel—The flywheel on the training bike has the correct inertia to allow you to pedal smoothly while encouraging you to use good pedaling form.

How to Adjust the Angle of the Saddle

You can adjust the angle of the saddle to the position that is most comfortable. You can also adjust the saddle forward or backward for increased comfort or to adjust the distance to the handlebar.

To adjust the saddle, first loosen the attachment hardware (A) beneath the saddle a few turns. Next, tilt the saddle upward or downward or slide the saddle forward or backward. Then, retighten the attachment hardware.

Note: You can remove the saddle and attach your own saddle if desired.

How to Adjust the Saddle Carriage

To adjust the position of the saddle carriage (B), loosen the adjustment handle (C), move the saddle carriage forward or backward, and then retighten the adjustment handle.

Note: The adjustment handle functions like a ratchet. Turn the adjustment handle in the desired direction, pull it outward, turn it in the opposite direction, push it inward, and then turn it in the desired direction again. Repeat this process as many times as necessary.

Page 15

How to Adjust the Saddle Post

How to Adjust the Handlebar Post

For effective training, the saddle should be at the proper height. As you pedal, there should be a slight bend in your knees when the pedals are in the lowest position. To adjust the height of the saddle post (D), loosen the adjustment handle (E), move the saddle post upward or downward, and then retighten the adjustment handle. When you are finished tighten-

ing the adjustment handle, make sure that the end of the adjustment handle is pointing upward.

How to Adjust the Rotation of the Handlebar

To rotate the handlebar (F), loosen the indicated screws (G), rotate the handlebar to the desired position, and then retighten the screws.

To adjust the height of the handlebar post (H), loosen the adjustment handle (I), move the handlebar post upward or downward, and then retighten the adjustment handle.

How to Adjust the Handlebar Carriage

To adjust the position of the handlebar carriage (J), loosen the indicated screws (K), move the handlebar carriage forward or backward to the desired position, and then retighten the screws.

How to Adjust the Position of the Console

The console (L) can be tilted upward and downward and can be pivoted from side to side. To adjust the console, hold the sides of the console and move it to the desired position.

Page 16

HOW TO LEVEL THE TRAINING BIKE

HOW TO USE THE HAND WEIGHTS

If the training bike rocks slightly on your floor during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet (M) on the rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is eliminated.

HOW TO USE THE PEDALS

To use the pedals (O), insert your shoes into the toe cages and pull the ends of the toe straps. To adjust the toe straps, press and hold the tabs on the buckles, adjust the toe straps to the desired position, and then release the tabs.

To add strengthtraining exercise to your workouts, use the hand weights (O). You can alternate performing

pedaling exercise on the training bike with performing strength-training exercise next to the training bike. You can also pivot the console sideways so that you can view the screen while you are performing strength-training exercises. When you are not using the hand weights, store them on the hand weight tray.

Note: You can attach your own pedals to the training bike if desired.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over age 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.

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.

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician. Remember, proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for successful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

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.

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE

To measure your heart rate, exercise for at least four minutes. Then, stop exercising and place two fingers on your wrist as shown. Take a six-second heartbeat count, and multiply the result by 10 to find your heart rate. For example, if your six-second heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per minute.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-

ing 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.

Page 28

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.
