Regular cardio training stimulates the cardiovascular system (heart and respiration). You improve your tness, lose weight and burn fat. So this is the recommended workout if you want to lose weight. During exercise, glucose is burnt rst, then the fats stored in the body are burnt through the exercises. Demanding cardio training (e.g. interval training, training with high resistance and over a longer period of time) requires more effort and also trains the muscles in addition to endurance. As a rule, the more regular the training, the more efcient it is (even for short 20-minute sessions). During the training The resistance during the cardio training phase decisively determines the training intensity and the related training results. Optimal training includes a warm-up phase (1), a more intense cardio training phase (2) and the nal recovery phase (3). If you want to make progress or burn calories, you should go through these 3 phases and train on the ergometer for at least 20 - 30 minutes.

Always start your workout with a low resistance. A warm-up of 5-10 minutes is important because your muscles need to be warmed up. Especially during the warm-up phase, you should give the circulation and muscle groups time to adjust to the subsequent workout. As a beginner, you can train for the rst 3 minutes at the easiest level and increase gradually according to your personal well-being.

2. Cardio training phase

After about 10 minutes you can then switch to the cardio training phase. If you are using interval training programmes, the training computer controls the resistance according to the type of interval, simulating changing demands.42

The cardio training phase is assigned to the aerobic or anaerobic training range depending on the energy consumption. These areas are dened as follows: Aerobic training area In this zone you improve your cardiovascular system and burn fat. Despite the slight exertion with increased heart rate, deeper breathing, getting warm and light sweating, you do not feel very exerted, however, breathing is not signicantly accelerated so that you could still have a conversation with someone without getting out of breath, and you feel that you could sustain this exertion for a longer time without getting exhausted. It is like walking uphill at a leisurely pace. The muscles and heart work more intensively and can obtain the majority of their energy requirements from aerobic energy production using oxygen. Anaerobic energy production is activated to a small amount, but only to the extent that all the lactic acid produced can be broken down again at the same time. You should do the majority of your training in this aerobic training zone. If you continue to increase the load, then at some point you will reach a limit where oxygen-based energy production is no longer able to increase energy production, so anaerobic energy production has to join in to a greater extent. You are now entering the anaerobic training zone. Anaerobic training area In this zone you improve your performance and speed. Once you increase your training again in this phase, the physical activity becomes much more strenuous because of the rising lactate level, you start to sweat more, your breathing speeds up, and after more or less time, depending on the training condition, the muscles get tired, you feel exhausted overall and can no longer continue at this level.43

Finally, remain in the recovery phase for at least 5 minutes and again use low resistance levels without high effort. The recovery or recuperation phase is also helpful in preventing possible muscle soreness after training. After an intensive training session, active regeneration is also highly advisable, such as a hot bath, a visit to the sauna or a massage. Training progress Your training can be increased in this way on a monthly basis, especially by extending the cardio training phase or performing a higher resistance level (or more challenging interval training). Food and drink

• Drink before, during and after exercise.

• Drink at least 2 sips of water (10 to 20 cl) every 10-15 minutes during exercise.

• If your workout lasts longer than 1 hour, you should drink a sports drink to prevent the body from becoming dehydrated during exercise.

• For optimal cardio training, it is very important to have an aligned diet both before and after physical activity. Before training, you should preferably eat carbohydrates, which can be found in rice and pasta, for example, as they provide the body with an important amount of energy. After training, you need to "refuel" with proteins, which you can nd in eggs, yoghurt and dried fruits. Even if you want to lose weight, it is absolutely necessary to eat after training so that your body regenerates.44

Start of training Select the video you want to train with. Select the mode you want to train in. Just start pedalling to begin the workout.55

Discovery and challenge mode Challenge mode: The video plays at your speed so that you can achieve the same overall performance as the video producer. If you are not fast enough, the video slowly reduces the frame rate. With good performance, the frame rate can be increased up to twice the original speed. Use this mode to participate in challenges such as Indoor Challenges and to export to third- party websites such as Strava with full coordinates and a map of your virtual ride. Discovery mode: The video plays at the original speed and pauses when your speed reaches 0. Whatever your performance, the frame rate is not changed. But you will still see if you are performing well by looking at the energy performance measured in cinemas. Note that the export on third-party websites like Strava is limited to watts and additional data like cadence, heart rate, but does not show coordinates or a map.56

Training display Relevant information is displayed at the top of the screen:

• The electricity generated immediately

• Your heart rate (only if you add an additional heart sensor strap or if your equipment has one built in)

• Your map position is synchronised with the video. The "Ranking" tab is only available in multiplayer mode.

• Abscissa: Height in metres

• Ordinate: Distance in KM in challenge mode.

• Duration: in seconds in Discovery mode. Set resistance / gears The screen will instruct you how to set the resistance according to the elevation prole (altitude) if you are using a speed/cadence sensor or an optical sensor.57

End training If you want to pause or stop the workout, simply stop pedalling or use the pause button in the corner of the workout. Click on the "Resume session" button to continue an unnished training. If you want to end this activity, simply conrm by tapping "Save and exit". Prole training58

Prole training is a form of training that involves a series of low to high intensity workouts and rest or relief periods. Varying the intensity of your effort trains the heart muscle, provides a cardiovascular workout, improves aerobic capacity and allows the person to exercise longer and/or more intensely. Prole training is not yet available for all devices. You can easily check it in the main menu: If you see the prole training menu, it means that the function is available for your equipment. You can choose between two modes, depending on your device. Resistance: You dene a resistance level and we send the instructions to the home trainer, regardless of the power produced. Target power: You dene a target power and the resistance changes automatically so that you generate it.

• If you see an orange line, it means you are close to your destination.

• Conversely, the orange line means that you are moving away from your target. (Increase or slow down target power)

• All you have to do is select the time (< >) for the countdown and start training.

• Once the activity has started, you can increase or decrease the target power or resistance according to the mode you have chosen.59
