Personal Trainer workouts are customized workouts designed either for the advanced user or to
be used in connection with a personal trainer.
1) C ROSS -T RAIN A EROBICS
During this workout, the unit prompts the user to emphasize different muscle groups. To emphasize
upper-body muscles, the user is prompted to focus on pushing and pulling the moving arms at vari-
ous times. To emphasize lower-body muscles, the the user is prompted to rest the hands on the sta-
tionary handlebar, thus forcing the legs to do all the work. The program also alternates between for-
ward and reverse motion as well as different speeds.
Ten seconds after prompting the user to change pedaling direction, the workout applies “braking resis-
tance,” that is, a high resistance level that essentially forces the user to stop pedaling. Once the user
stops pedaling, the workout resumes the normal resistance level. The actual level of breaking resistance
depends on the user’s pedaling speed. If the user is pedaling at a rate equal to, or faster than 6.2 mph
(10.0 km/h), the workout applies the maximum level of braking resistance. If the user is pedaling at a
speed below 6.2 mph (10.0 km/h), the workout applies 92 percent of the maximum.
CROSS-TRAIN AEROBICS is a constant-resistance workout. However, for a similar experience with
a variable-resistance-level workout, the user can start any workout (except for Fat Burn, Cardio,
Heart Rate Hill, Heart Rate Interval, or Extreme Heart Rate) and then under Mode select AEROBICS.
2) C ROSS -T RAIN R EVERSE
This workout features alternating periods of pedaling forward and pedaling backwards. If the user choos-
es a workout duration 14 minutes or above, the unit displays alternating prompts to pedal forward for five
minutes and then backward for two minutes. If the user selects a goal of 13 minutes or below, the unit
display prompts the user to pedal forward for two minutes and then backward for one minute. If the user
selects a goal other than time (distance or calorie), the program uses the default setting of prompting for-
ward motion for five minutes and reverse for two minutes.
This feature varies the emphasis on different leg muscles. Ten seconds after prompting the user to
change pedaling direction, the workout applies “braking resistance,” that is, a high resistance level that
essentially forces the user to stop pedaling. Once the user stops pedaling, the workout resumes the nor-
mal resistance level. The actual level of breaking resistance depends on the user’s pedaling SPEED. If
the user is pedaling at a rate equal to, or faster than, 6.2 mph (10.0 km/h), the workout applies the maxi-
mum level of braking resistance. If the user is pedaling at a speed below 6.2 mph (10.0 km/h), the work-
out applies 92 percent of the maximum.
CROSS-TRAIN REVERSE is a constant-resistance workout. However, for a similar experience with a
variable-resistance-level workout, the user can start any workout (except for Fat Burn, Cardio, Heart
Rate Hill, Heart Rate Interval, or Extreme Heart Rate) and then under mode select REVERSE.
