your relative exercise intensity by way of your heart rate, then
automatically adjust the workload to keep you at your desired
exercise intensity.
Your heart rate is a good measure of your body's exercise
stress level. It reflects differences in your physical condition,
how tired you are, the comfort of the workout environment,
even your diet and emotional state. Thus, using heart rate to
control workload takes the guesswork out of your workout
settings.
Consult your physician before using heart rate controlled
workouts for advice on selecting a target heart rate range.
Also, it is important to use the bike for several workouts in
the manual mode while monitoring your heart rate. Compare
your heart rate with how you feel to ensure your safety and
comfort.
You need to wear a heart rate monitoring chest strap to use
heart rate control. See the "Monitoring Your Heart Rate"
section in Chapter 2 for a guide to proper usage.
