Congratulations on the purchase of your new Diamondback Fitness computer-controlled indoor cycle. You have made a great choice and are
about to enjoy one of the most eective and technically-advanced methods of low-impact cardio-vascular exercise available today.
Founded in 1991 as an o-shoot of the legendary bicycle company, Diamondback Fitness was in many ways a complimentary addition to the
Diamondback brand. One might even say this extension grew as a natural evolution...an evolution from classic outdoor bicycle usage, toward
indoor-based cycling and cross training. It turns out that many fitness enthusiasts were searching for ways to maintain conditioning during times
of inclement weather or simply looking for new and dierent cross-training options.
This trend still continues today, twenty years later, as the strong Diamondback brand resonates with both the boomers who grew up with the
bicycles, as well as the younger generations riding them today.
Diamondback Fitness continues to build upon this legendary brand identity by oering the cardio enthusiast a full line of upright exercise bikes,
recumbent cycles, and elliptical trainers, each oering superior value and quality with intuitive and visually-appealing design. Let’s just say, we
are already planning our next twenty years.
Thank you for choosing Diamondback Fitness.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Good Health is an Exercise in Common Sense
In the study titled, “The Surgeon General’s Call To Action To Prevent and Decrease Overweight and Obesity”, the surgeon general indicates that
61% of American adults are either overweight or obese. The study indicates that being overweight increases the risk of health problems, such as
heart disease, certain types of cancer, as well as Type-2 diabetes among other aictions.
Body Mass Index; BMI = (weight (lb) ÷ height2(in)) x 703

910Ic Owner’s Manual

Heart Rate is an Important Key to Your Exercise
The Surgeon General also released a report on physical activity and health. This report dictates that exercise and fitness are beneficial for a
person’s health and reiterated the need for exercise as a key component for disease prevention and healthier living.
The best way to determine exercise intensity is to monitor your pulse rate. Your heart rate can easily be determined by counting the number of
heart beats per minute at the chest, wrist or the carotid artery on your neck. It is dicult however to count your own pulse while exercising as it is
not possible to count fast enough to accurately track the number of beats per minute. This Diamondback Fitness unit is equipped with a wireless
heart rate receiver.
Using the Wireless Heart Rate Receiver
A wireless telemetry heart rate receiving system is one feature found on this unit. In order for the console to detect and display your heart rate,
four (4) conditions must be present:
A compatible heart rate chest strap transmitter (not included) must be functioning and worn. For proper function of the chest strap, please refer to
the manufacturer’s instructions. Non-coded transmitters such as the Polar model T31 and T34 are examples of wireless chest straps known to be
compatible with this unit.
The unit must be powered on.
A workout program must be running.
The user is within three (3) feet of the console.
In general, a wireless heart rate chest strap is the most accurate and convenient method of detecting and monitoring a heart rate signal and is a
considerable upgrade from the touch type heart rate sensors. Occasionally, certain factors can negatively aect the accurate transmission of the
heart rate signal. WiFi networks, cordless telephones and large electrical appliances may degrade or corrupt the signal so that the rate appears
erratic or impossibly high. The only remedy for such a symptom is to isolate the unit from potential disturbances. Additionally, a person’s body
chemistry or lack of perspiration can prevent the chest strap from providing a strong or accurate heart rate signal. Always follow the chest strap
manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations.

16
Calculated Maximum Heart Rate & Target Training Zone
Your calculated target heart rate, or the ideal intensity needed to improve
cardiovascular fitness, depends primarily upon your age rather than your
current state of fitness. If the exercise intensity is too low or too high, only
modest gains will be made in strength and cardio-vascular fitness. A workout
at a very low intensity will not oer maximum benefits. Conversely, if the
workout intensity is too high, injury or fatigue may slow the progression of your
exercise goals as the body attempts to recover.
Note: It is most eective to train at a heart rate between 60%
and 85% of your maximum heart rate. Maximum heart rate
is calculated as a percentage of your maximum heart rate
(estimated as 220 beats-per-minute minus your age).
To calculate your maximum heart rate and find the appropriate target training
zone, use the following formulas. For example, the following estimation would
be relevant for a 35 year-old user:
• 220 – 35 = 185 Bpm (220 – Age = Calculated Maximum Heart Rate in Beats-per-minute/Bpm)
• 0.60 x 185 = 111 Bpm (60% of 185 BPM [Calculated Maximum Heart Rate] = 111 Bpm)
• 0.85 x 185 = 157 Bpm (85% of 185 BPM [Calculated Maximum Heart Rate] = 157 Bpm)

910Ic Owner’s Manual
17
Based on these calculations, the recommended heart rate training zone for this user would be between 111 Bpm ñ 157 Bpm. The graph below
displays the recommended heart rate training zone for users twenty years of age to seventy-five years of age.
WORKOUT QUALITY & QUANTITY
It is recommended that you accumulate at least thirty (30) minutes of physical activity most days of the week. The American College of Sports
Medicine makes the following recommendations for the quantity and quality of training for developing and maintaining cardio-respiratory fitness
in healthy adults:
• An activity that uses large muscle groups, maintained continuously, and is rhythmical and aerobic in nature.
• Duration: 20 to 60 minutes of continuous aerobic activity, including a warm-up and cool-down period for each session.
• Frequency: 3 to 5 times per week.
• Intensity: 60% to 85% of maximum heart rate.
In addition to aerobic exercise, strength training of moderate intensity twice per week is recommended. Women especially may benefit from
weight-bearing exercises. Select activities you enjoy and can fit into daily life. Having Diamondback Fitness equipment at home oers you the
opportunity to work out without going to the gym.

18
Get a Smart Start on Exercising
Anyone over the age of 35, as well as younger persons whom are overweight, should check with his/her physician before commencing an exercise
program. Persons who have diabetes or high blood pressure, a family history of heart disease, high cholesterol or have led sedentary lifestyles
should protect themselves with a medical check-up and stress test administered by a healthcare professional.
• Stretching and massaging major muscles (such as your quadriceps) following a workout session will aid in the dissipation of lactic acid and
speed your body’s recovery.
• The first few minutes of your workout should be devoted to warming up the muscles before a vigorous workout. Concentrate on raising your
heart rate slowly.
• After an aerobic workout of roughly 20-30 minutes, spend 10 minutes gradually reducing your heart rate by moving slower or with less
resistance.
NOTE: Start slow, with intensity low until you build up endurance and strength. Always consult your physician
before beginning any exercise program.

CONSOLE OVERVIEW & GENERAL NOTES
A primary feature of the 910Ic is the ability to control and monitor the user’s workout program via the brilliant LCD console. At any time, the user
may view their speed, RPM, elapsed time, distance, Watts, calories and pulse rate.
To provide power to the display console and computer, begin pedaling at a rate exceeding fifteen (15) revolutions per minute. The 910Ic Indoor
Cycle uses an on-board generator to supply power to the computer, console display and resistance control system while the unit is in use. While
the unit generates power for the current functions, a set of batteries is also charged to allow console operation for up to sixty (60) seconds without
pedaling. Should the battery ever run down or if the console does not light, connect the included power supply/adaptor to a 120V power source.
Plug the opposite end into the 910Ic power input jack found near the ground at the rear of the machine. Begin pedaling to recharge the battery.
To avoid damage and danger, use only the power supply/adaptor that was designed for the 910Ic. To maintain and extend the life of the battery, it
is necessary to charge the battery overnight, once per week.
To conserve energy, the console will automatically power down after sixty (60) seconds of inactivity.
