Preset Programs
The FS4.0e has ve different programs that have been designed to provide a variety of
workouts.These programs have factory preset proles for achieving different goals.
Hill
The Hill program simulates going up and down a hill. The resistance
in the pedals will steadily increase and then decrease
during the program.
Fat Burn
The Fat Burn program is designed, as the name implies, to maximize
the burning of fat. There are many schools of thought on the best way to
burn fat but most experts agree that a lower exertion level that stays at a
steady workload is the best. The absolute best way to burn fat is to keep
your heart rate at around 60% to 70% of its maximum potential. This
program does not use heart rate but simulates a lower, steady exertion
workout.
Cardio
The Cardio program is designed to increase your Cardio vascular func-
tion. This is exercise for your heart and lungs. It will build up your heart
muscle and increase blood ow and lung capacity. This is achieved by
incorporating a higher level of exertion with slight uctuations in work.
Strength
The Strength program is designed to increase muscular strength in your
lower body. This program will steadily increase in resistance to a high
level and then keeps you there. This is designed to strengthen and tone
your legs and glutes.
Interval
The Interval program takes you through high levels of intensity followed
by periods of low intensity. This program increases your endurance by
depleting your oxygen level followed by periods of recovery to replenish
oxygen. Your cardio vascular system gets programmed to use oxygen
more efciently this way.
