W ATTS (C9i only)
This workout targets a rate of effort equal to a certain number of Watts. A Watt is a unit of power that measures the
amount of mechanical work required to operate a device, such as a Lifecycle bike. It is roughly equal to .25 calories
per hour. The workout program automatically alters the intensity level to maintain the appropriate rate of effort.
METS (C9i only)
This workout targets a rate of effort equal to a certain number of METs. A MET is a unit of measurement used to
express the metabolic rate of work (oxygen consumption per unit of body weight) required to perform a task. One
MET is approximately equal to a person’s metabolism when seated and relaxed.
