MOVING YOUR ASCEND S2 MAGNETIC SPINNING BIKE
The Ascend S2 Magnetic Spinning Bike is a versatile piece of exercise equipment that allows you to
enjoy an effective and dynamic cycling workout in the comfort of your home. This guide will walk you
through how to use this spinning bike for your fitness sessions.
1. Mounting the Bike:
• Start by adjusting the seat height to your preference. Please follow the Bike Setup guide of this
present manual to find out more.
2. Starting the Workout:
• Begin with a light warm-up. Please follow the Warming Up guide of this present manual to find out more.
• Adjust the resistance knob or use the console to set your desired level of resistance. You can make
your workout more challenging by increasing the resistance or reduce it for an easier ride.
3. Riding Posture:
• Maintain an upright posture and engage your core muscles. Keep your back straight and shoulders
relaxed.
• Hold the handlebars with a comfortable grip, avoiding excessive tension in your arms and wrists.
• Focus on your pedaling technique. Push down with one foot while lifting the other, creating a smooth
circular motion. Keep your pedaling steady and rhythmic.
4. Adjusting Resistance:
• During your workout, you can easily adjust the resistance using the resistance knob or the console. Turn
it clockwise to increase resistance and counterclockwise to decrease it.
• Experiment with different resistance levels to vary the intensity of your workout. You can simulate uphill
climbs or faster sprints.
5. Monitoring Progress:
• Many spinning bikes, including the Ascend S2, are equipped with a digital display that tracks metrics
like speed, time, distance, and calories burned. Glance at the screen to monitor your progress during the
workout.
6. Interval Training:
• To add variety to your routine, consider incorporating interval training. This involves alternating
between periods of high-intensity pedaling and lower-intensity recovery periods.
• For example, you can sprint at maximum effort for 30 seconds, then recover at a slower pace for 60
seconds, and repeat this pattern throughout your workout.
7. Cooling Down:
• After completing your workout, gradually reduce your pedaling intensity. Allow your heart rate to
return to a normal level.
• Perform a few minutes of light pedaling, gradually slowing down to a stop.
• Remember to stretch your leg muscles to reduce post-workout tightness.
• Find out more in the Warming Up guide of this manual.
