Cardio vs Weight
You can choose whether it is a prescription for cardiovascular or muscle type exercise. To make the change, simply click on "Weight" or "Cardio".
The options will be a little different:
Weight:
You can decide the number of sets (or a duration), a number of repetitions and a tempo.
Cardio:
You can pick a number of phases, a duration and an intensity.
From the " + " column, you will have options corresponding to what you have selected.
Example:
In Cardio mode, you can add a speed and a distance.
In weight mode, you will instead have access to loads.
"Alternate" mode
If you have to create an exercise where the movements will be done alternately (e.g. one repetition of the left arm, then another of the right arm), select "Alternate". This will allow the system to calculate the difference.
Calculation example:
Alternate NOT activated

Alternate Activated
