Choosing and
Completing a
Workout
The instructions shown earlier in this manual (refer to
) provide the simplest possible steps for
getting started with your new fitness equipment. In
most cases, you’ll want to start with one of the
preprogrammed workouts available on the equipment.
This chapter explains how to select a workout and
describes the changes you can make as it progresses.
Note:
If you’re signed in under your user profile, you
can save your completed workout as a personal
favorite and use it again later (refer to
). If you’ve made adjustments to the intensity
of the workout, your changes will be stored as well.
The human body is extremely efficient. If it makes the
same motion regularly over many days or weeks, it
learns to make that motion with less and less effort.
This process, called
muscle adaptation
, has one
drawback—the longer you stick to the same workout,
the less good that workout does you.
To prevent muscle adaptation from setting in as you
work out, try different kinds of workouts on different
days. By keeping your muscles guessing, you’ll keep
your energy use up, promoting faster weight loss and
better conditioning.
When you select a preprogrammed, time-based
workout from the Workouts section, it will have a set
time duration and the course profile will show on your
screen.
When you select a preprogrammed distance workout
from the
Go the Distance
section, it will have a set
distance duration and the course profile will show on
your screen.
