FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable. When you use the quick start mode of the
console, you can change the resistance of the pedals
with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the con-
sole will provide continuous exercise feedback. You
can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.
Note:
For information about the optional chest pulse
sensor, see page 27.
The console offers twenty-three preset programs.
Each program automatically changes the resistance of
the pedals and prompts you to maintain a target pace
as it guides you through an effective workout.
The console also offers three manual programs that
allow you to set your own time, distance, or calorie
goal for the workout.
In addition, there are two custom programs that allow
you to create your own workouts and store them in
memory for future use. Also, when you have finished
exercising, you can use the cool down mode to help
you recover from your workout.
The console also provides two heart rate programs
that automatically adjust the resistance of the pedals
to keep your heart rate near a target level during your
workouts.
The console features the iFit Interactive Workout
System, which enables the console to accept iFit
cards containing workouts designed to help you
achieve specific fitness goals. iFit cards are available
separately.
To purchase iFit cards, go to
www.iFit.com or see the back cover of this man-
ual. iFit cards are also available at select stores.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the consoleʼs stereo sound system and listen to
your favorite workout music or audio books while you
exercise.
