Workout Programs (Continued)
PLATEAU:
This program is to simulate to workout on the plateau, the change in
resistance is shown in the picture below. The first and the last segment
each accounts for 20% of the workout. The middle segment accounts for
60% of the workout.
20% 60% 20%
RANDOM:
The graphic pattern in RANDOM PROGRAM are generated randomly, and
the illustration shows differently each time.
VARI-STRIDE:
In this program, stride length changes automatically during a 20-minute,
30-minute, or 40-minute workout session. There are three programs: VARI-
STRIDE 20; VARI-STRIDE 30; VARI-STRIDE 40.
Each time the VARI-STRIDE key is pressed, one of the three programs will
appear. Press ENTER to select the desired program.
After selection, press ▲/▼ keys to set your maximum stride length when
display shows “MAX STRIDE - XXX”. Range is 25 - 29 inch (630 - 730mm),
with a default setting of 25 inch (630mm). Then press the ENTER key to
confirm your choice.
During program setting, you may press QUICK START to start the program
right away. The maximum stride length can be adjusted during exercising by
pressing STRIDE ▲/▼ keys.
FIT TEST:
The FIT TEST program is designed for physical fitness assessments. The
program is set with a time limit; therefore it is not restricted by the program
time limit setting at the engineering mode.
After you press the FIT TEST key, the display will show “STARTING TEST”
to begin this program. The test is divided into 4 segments of 3 minutes; it will
compare the actual Watts and the preset Watts in each segment and adjust
the resistance accordingly.
During the test, the Red dot in the dot matrix window represents the target
SPM and the orange dot represents the actual SPM. You want to match
the actual SPM to the targeted value. The best SPM range during test is
between 40SPM to 70SPM with targeted 50SPM. If the actual SPM is below
40SPM for more than 5 seconds, the display will ask you to “SPEED UP”
and if it is above 70SPM for more than 5 seconds, it will ask you to “SPEED
DOWN”.
