Time
Counts up from 0:00 and can be increased or decreased during your workout. The
maximum time is 99:59, then the window rolls over to 0:00. The program time
may be changed twice during a workout.
Time-in-Zone
Tracks the amount of time you are in the proper training zone of the program.
Time-in-Zone is only displayed when you are in a heart rate program and your
heart rate is detected by the machine.
Distance
Distance is an estimate of how far you have traveled. Distance can be shown in
either miles (English) or kilometers (metric). To switch from English to metric or
metric to English, hold down the weight (+/–) keys for three seconds. The console
will scroll the unit of measure it switched to. A person pedaling at roughly 50 rpms
will take eight minutes to reach one mile.
Speed
Speed tells you how fast you are going. Speed is displayed in revolutions per
minute (rpm).
P10—Heart Rate
Heart Rate Speed Interval puts you though intervals of
65%
and
85%
of your the-
oretical maximum. It combines steeper intervals with changing speeds. Interval
training has been shown to give superior results compared to steady state train-
ing (training at the same resistance level). Each interval lasts for
one
minute.
Once the interval is complete the resistance increases or decreases to get you
to the next interval. When you reach the new target heart rate the new interval
begins. While going from the lower interval to the higher interval the electronics
instruct you to speed up to
60 rpm
to get you there faster. When you are going
from the higher interval to the lower interval, the electronics instruct you to slow
down to
40 rpm
. This will help you decrease your heart rate to the new lower
target in less time. Each interval intensity is independently adjustable. To change
the target heart rate press the level (+/–) button. This will change the intensity
level for the entire interval. The better condition you are in the more intervals you
will be able to accomplish in the same period of time. The program starts with
a three minute warm-up. During the warm-up you can change resistance (1 - 20)
using the level (+/–). If you reach your target heart rate during the warm-up, the
warm-up ends and the heart rate control portion begins.
Example for a 40-year-old person: 220 – 40 yrs old = 180 TMHR
180 * .65 = 117
Target heart rate
180 * .85 = 153
