How These Modes Work
CHAPTER FOUR: HEART RATE CONTROL
Constant
HRC
True’s heart rate control (HRC) workout lets the bike monitor
your relative exercise intensity by way of your heart rate, then
automatically adjust the workload to keep you at your desired
exercise intensity.
Your heart rate is a good measure of your body’s exercise stress
level. It reflects differences in your physical condition, how tired
you are, the comfort of the workout environment, even your diet
and emotional state. Thus, using heart rate to control workload
takes the guesswork out of your workout settings.
Consult your physician before using heart rate controlled work-
outs for advice on selecting a target heart rate range. Also, it is im-
portant to use the bike for several workouts in the manual mode
while monitoring your heart rate. Compare your heart rate with
how you feel to ensure your safety and comfort.
You need to wear a heart rate monitoring chest strap to use heart
rate control. See the “Monitoring Your Heart Rate” section in
Chapter 1 for a guide to proper usage.
