4.2 USING THE WORKOUTS
Different bike workouts require different setup steps. This section provides details on the steps them-
selves. (See the chart, titled Lifecycle Upright Bike Workout Setup Steps at the end of this section for
a quick glance at the steps for setting up any workout program.)
1) BEGINNING A WORKOUT
Without networking, touch the screen to START. The Message Area displays the prompt: “Select
your workout or press ? for more information.” Choose a workout program to begin.
If equipped with optional networking, touch the screen to START. The Message area displays the
prompt: “SELECT YOUR WORKOUT, ENTER YOUR NETWORK ID, OR PRESS ? FOR MORE INFOR-
MATION” and an “NETWORK ID” button will appear on the Workout Selection Screen. Select a workout,
or log on to the networked exercise database and download the preset workout.
To log onto the network, press NETWORK ID and key in the user ID number with the NUMERIC

SELECTING AND USING QUICK START
QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising, and it bypasses the steps of selecting a specific
workout program. On the start screen press the QUICK START button. The workout begins at an
intensity level that remains the same unless manually changed. In order for METs to be displayed on
the Workout Progress Screen choose ENTER WEIGHT.
