• Push yourself to increase the number of Pedal revolutions per minute.
• Place your feet further out toward the rear of the Pedals.
• Increase the Intensity Level and keep your RPM consistent, or increase it as well.
• Use your upper and lower body at different levels.
• Shift your grip location on the Handlebars to work out other parts of your upper body.

The Dynamic Handlebars allow for a variety of upper body workouts. When starting out, place your hands where it feels most comfortable and stable
on the Dynamic Handlebars.
The Static Handlebars below the Console Assembly can also be used to add stability during a workout, as well as provide your heart rate.
For a workout focused on legs, lean in until your forearms run along the Aerobars with your hands upward. When leaning in, be aware of the motion
of the Dynamic Handlebars during the workout.
