Choosing a Program
Choosing a program depends on your goals. If you are a beginner or
returning to regular exercise, you can start a cardio-conditioning
program to slowly return your body to a comfortable level of
exercise. If you have been exercising and feel that you have an
intermediate or advanced fitness level, you probably have
established goals. The Precor website (www.precor.com) can give
you many ideas about fitness workouts and advice from the experts.
Several workout choices on the cycle are preprogrammed with
recommendations for the resistance and alternating rest or work
intervals. You always have the option to override the suggested
levels with the exception of the Fitness Test and the Heart Rate
Control Program.
If your level of exertion becomes too great, reduce your pedaling
speed (RPM) or use the arrow keys to override the resistance in
each upcoming column in the program profile. If you use the
RESISTANCE arrow keys, the profile changes accordingly.
