METs
The METS program allows the 1100 series to be elec-
tronically controlled to deliver a specific work rate
independent of pedal rate. As the pedal rate falls,
the load on the wheel is increased proportionally. As
the pedal rate intensifies, the load on the wheel is
decreased proportionally. There are 16 levels of ad-
justments in the METs program (1-16 in 0.5 incre-
ments).
A comparison is provided below to give you a better
understanding of the relationship between calories
per hour, watts and METs.
(Note: These comparisons are based on a person
weighing 150 pounds.)
