Aerobic Endurance Program
The Aerobic Endurance Program can be accessed by
pressing the VARIETY key. The 30 to 60 minute program
has been designed by Dr. Emily Cooper of Seattle
Performance Medicine (www.spmedicine.com) to enhance
muscular and aerobic endurance. It has a warmup period
followed by gradually increasing CrossRamp inclines and
resistance.
During the warmup period, the display prompts you to
maintain a specific stride rate which increases muscle
flexibility and raises your heart rate. When the program
begins, maintain the recommended stride rate of 140 strides
per minute to improve cardiopulmonary conditioning and
muscular endurance. The ramp incline varies throughout the
program every three minutes. When you complete the
program, a 3-minute, cool-down period begins.
The CrossRamp and resistance are preset based on your
body weight and the recommended strides per minute, but
you have the option to adjust either one during the program
using the arrow keys. If you make adjustments, you may
change the effectiveness of the program.
Hill Climb Program
The Hill Climb Program, available by pressing the VARIETY
key, has preprogrammed CrossRamp settings in a fixed
pattern. It is designed to increase muscle tone, cardio-
conditioning, and endurance over several weeks.
The program consists of alternating forward and backward
pedaling movements that focus on working the thigh and calf
muscle groups. Display prompts appear indicating when to
reverse pedal direction at select intervals: 25%, 50%, and
75% of program completion.
During your exercise session, you can change your strides
per minute and override the CrossRamp or resistance
settings using the arrow keys.
