6 PROGRAM PROFILES
Custom User Profiles
The PROFILE [1, 2, or 3] keys on the g•force RT allow three different users to enter and store personal
information for weight, age, target heart rate, and intensity level. These specifics can be quickly entered
and stored when setting up a defined program. A custom PROFILE may also be changed at a later date
to reflect changes in your age or weight.
Defined Programs
The g•force RT has eleven different workouts programmed into the console. Each PROGRAM provides
different benefits and can help you achieve your own personal fitness goals, be it weight loss, increas-
ing endurance, or improving your aerobic threshold. The variety of programs allows you to use your
g•force RT for very different aspects of your fitness program. Seasoned athletes know that varying
your routine is essential to success. A tough day of interval training or a challenging hill workout is best
followed by an easy day that allows your body to recover from the previous days efforts.
For example, you can choose a challenging workout such as a RACE against Greg LeMond on a Tuesday,
and then do a less intense, recovery ride with the CONSTANT HR workout on the following day.
These programs allow you to vary your workouts and provide you with fun and challenging ways to
jumpstart you fitness program and reach your fitness goals faster. Having a variety of programs available
to you, keeps you from becoming bored with your daily workout routine and more likely to stick with
your fitness plan.
1 Manual
The simplest program in the g•force RT , the MANUAL program provides a workout with a constant
resistance and a time limit that you specify. At any time during the workout you can increase or de-
crease the resistance using the + or - keys.
We recommend that you use this program to become familiar with the bike and the resistance functions.
