The basic idea of profile scaling is to ensure that you can always use the pre-set profiles to maximum effect. Everyone knows that the required training intensity varies – sometimes you want to exercise hard, sometimes an easy and short exercise is just right. In order to take the exerciser’s current training capacity into account, the exerciser must have the possibility to adjust, i.e. to scale the intensity and duration of the pre-set profiles.

The scaling of intensity (speed, elevation, watt, Nm, HR) can take place either before or during training: if you notice that the profile is too low for you, you can scale it upward simply by pressing one key until the desired level is reached. Similarily, scaling the profiles down is possible. In scaling, the pre-set profile form will remain, but the profile intensity level will go up or down. Prior to the start of the exercise, you can set the desired duration (time, in some cases distance) of the profile.

In brief, scaling is the ultimate application for personalized, effective training.
