It is an interactive program with which you can set goals, monitor progress and compare results from previous weeks and with other users. Plus, it has 9 challenge landmark workouts, in addition to the standard workout programs.

Initially you will have 3 landmark workouts, Lady Liberty, Space Needle and TransAmerica Tower, the next 6 you’ll have to earn them by completing your goals with the G.O. Coach, just like trophies or medals you have to win to keep you motivated.

The speed range from 0.5 to 4.5 MPH and the 12 levels of hydraulic resistance are good enough to keep you challenged. The electronic console gives out feedback on time, distance traveled, calories burned per minute and total calories burned, and your heart rate.
