The Club Settings program lets club owners limit the length of time allowed
for a workout. When specifying a workout time, you can choose any time up
to, but not longer than, this limit. For example, if the time limit is set at 30
minutes, you can set a workout time from 2 minutes to a maximum of 30
minutes.
After you enter a workout time, the Goal Setting display “Your Goals Are
appears in the left window showing the target amounts you can achieve
with the workout selected.
9. To start your workout, begin pedaling.
During a workout, you can change your effort level using the arrow keys.
Doing this affects how hard you work, but does not change the profile of the
course unless you are using Manual mode (program 0).
10. Continue your workout until the program ends. Maintain your exercise
intensity by pedaling with the pacer.
Note: We do not recommend exercising faster than the pacer since it is
provided to help you work out. If you want a more difficult exercise session,
select a different program or a higher effort level.
11. When the selected exercise program ends, review your performance
summary.
We recommend that you keep track of your workouts by writing them down.
This way you can monitor your progress toward your fitness goals and also use
the information as a reference in planning interesting and challenging workouts
in the future.
