An Indoor Cycle Program - Interval Ride

  • Heart Rate: 65 - 92% MHR
  • Resistance: Varies
  • Cadence: 80 - 110 RPM

An Interval zone ride is beneficial for anyone looking for a way to enhance fitness and overall health.

There are three types of common intervals. Each one improves a specific energy system and relates to a particular heart rate range.

  • Aerobic Intervals are performed at 50-80% of the maximum heart rate.
  • Aerobic/Anaerobic Intervals are performed at 65-92% of the maximum heart rate.
  • Anaerobic Intervals are performed at an "all out" intensity with short durations.

By repeatedly exposing active muscles to high intensity exercise, you improve their resistance to fatigue. As a result, riders will be able to sustain a given exercise intensity for a longer period of time, increasing their endurance.

The other zone-based rides are:
