So far, we've discussed what the club or facility owner needs to do to get the cycle ready to
use. This chapter describes how to use it; what each exerciser needs to do to get the most
out of his or her workout.
Overview
This is how you work out on the 700C Cycle and 700R Recumbent Cycle:
1. Get on and start pedaling to activate the console.
2. Select manual mode, a program, or one of the advanced features.
3. Enter how long you want to work out.
4. Press Start.
5. Choose your effort level.
6. Enjoy your workout!
During your workout, watch your progress on the console; if you want, you can change the
pedaling resistance or program at any time. When you're done, the 700C Cycle and 700R
Recumbent Cycle shows statistics about your workout: total distance pedaled, calories
burned, and more.
The rest of this chapter tells you more about your choices at each of these steps. The
advanced features are discussed in Chapter 4.
Before You Start
To get the most out of a 700 series cycle workout, be sure to follow these general exercise
rules:
• Check with your doctor before starting any new exercise program.
• Wear comfortable workout clothing.
• Drink plenty of water or other fluids before, during, and after exercising.
• Stay loose and relaxed while working out.
• If you start to hurt, stop pedaling.
When pedaling, you should have a smooth, even stroke, using both legs equally. Adjust the
seat so your knees are still slightly bent at full extension.
