The Hill diagram below shows the effort level and recovery periods encountered
during a Hill workout. Effort and recovery periods are simulated on the display con-
sole by columns of lights in the Program Profile window. The columns move from
right to left during the workout. The higher the column, the higher the incline; conse-
quently, you must increase your effort.
