  • Page 28 OW TO DJUST THE EDAL TRAPS The bike pedal straps keep the user’s shoes on the pedals during a workout. The straps should fit comfortably, but they also should be tight enough to prevent shoes from slipping at any point in the pedaling rotation. Before working out, a user should test and adjust the tightness of the straps.

  • Page 38 The HILL workout goes through four phases, each marked by different intensity levels. The WORKOUT PROFILE window displays the progress of these phases. As noted in the descriptions below, the heart rate should be measured at two stages in the workout to gauge its effectiveness. Wear the the chest strap (C7i), or grasp the sensors (C9i).
  • Page 39 PORT RAINING This program simulates an outdoor cycling terrain by setting different hills, or intensity levels, throughout the course. Hills #1 and #2 simulate going downhill. Hill #3 simulates riding on a flat road. Hills #4 and above simulate climbing, with each hill matching a progressive degree of difficulty. Hills last between 30 and 60 seconds, depending on the workout duration.
  • Page 40 EART NTERVAL ORKOUT This program alternates between a hill, which brings the heart rate up to the target rate*, and a valley, which brings the heart rate down to 90 percent of the target.
