Since interval training is a common type of workout, the CS
8.0 console has an extra-easy way to create a custom interval
program. After selecting Custom Intervals, pick the work
segment and rest segment durations, then pick the work and rest
segment exercise levels.
When you use the program, the segments repeat over and over
until you reach the end of your workout time. Or, you can have
the program last for a certain number of work intervals.
