Creating
Your Own
Workout
There are two basic ways to create your
own custom workout: have the CS 8.0
Bike record your level settings during a
manual workout, or enter the workout
levels directly with the keypad. The
maximum number of segments in each
custom program is 60. You can store three
different custom programs. Segment intensity is recorded with
Personal Power, so that your custom program can be properly
used by others (see Chapter
5).
In Record mode, 60 changes in workload are recorded during
your workout.
For direct entry of a workout program using the keypad, you can
set as few or as many of the parameters as you wish. The default
(called Scale) is for you to pick the total workout time, then enter
up to 60 equal length segments. Each segment can have up to 77
different intensities, depending on body weight.
If you want to directly control the length of each segment, use
Fixed
.
If you select Repeat, you set a workout time, and the segment
pattern you enter repeats over and over until the workout time is
reached.
When you select a stored custom workout program as your
workout, you can change the suggested workout time. This will
simply stretch or shrink the program to fit the new workout time.
As you use a custom program, if you use the
, keys, the
workload intensity for the current segment only is shifted.

interval workout,

Intervals (below).
