EROBICS TRAINER (9100 ONLY)
In this workout, the MESSAGE CENTER continuously prompts the user to switch between a high
pedaling speed and a low pedaling speed. These speed intervals alternate in a pattern that promotes
a build-up in the intensity of the workout, followed by a build-down in intensity.
The workout consists of 32 intervals, which are divided into groups of four. In the first group, the user
encounters one fast interval followed by three slow intervals. The second group features two fast
intervals followed by two slow intervals. The third group features three fast intervals followed by one
slow interval. The fourth group, which is the most intense point of the workout, features four fast inter-
vals. Afterward, the workout decreases in intensity, concluding with a group of four, conscutive, slow
intervals. See the chart below:
The length of the intervals depends on the workout duration selected by the user.
