RANDOM is an interval training workout of constantly changing intensity levels that occur in no regular pattern or
progression.
SPORT TRAINING simulates an outdoor terrain by setting various resistance levels.
EZ RESISTANCE features a gradual, subtle increase in resistance, independent of the user’s pedaling speed. A peak
in resistance is followed by an equally subtle decrease in resistance.
FAT BURN is a low-intensity workout for burning the body’s fat reserves. The user must grasp the Lifepulse system
