Program Overview
The Cardio program is designed for experienced users that desire a high intensity cardiovascular
training experience. The two-minute work interval with high resistance ensures that the aerobic energy
system is completely taxes, while the subsequent two-minute rest interval allows for recovery enabling
a repeat at the higher work rate. Additionally, a higher incline level is used during the recovery interval
to discourage blood pooling, ensuring more complete recovery. See table below and Figure 7.
