Exp Elliptical Prog - Week 2

Experienced Elliptical Program: Week 2

This week is built for experienced elliptical athletes. You will balance three elliptical sessions with targeted bodyweight training on non-elliptical days and finish the longest cardio day with a short full-body stretch. Expect speed intervals with no incline changes to sharpen clean cadence, a rhythm session that stacks tempo pushes with progressive resistance peaks, and a longer HIIT day organized into alternating speed and resistance blocks set to contemporary R&B. Pair your machine and heart rate monitor where supported to see live metrics. Tip: keep posture tall with light hands, and if cadence drifts, lower resistance slightly to maintain smooth pedal mechanics. Alternating speed and resistance helps train both neuromuscular cadence control and strength endurance. Alt-text cue: athlete on an elliptical holding quick steady cadence as the console shows spm and heart rate.

 

For more options, browse all elliptical classes, review the program map in the Experienced Elliptical Program overview, pull a focused session from the shorter elliptical playlist, or tackle a block-based challenge from the longer elliptical playlist.

FAQs: Exp Elliptical Plan - Week 2 Questions

If I'm just starting this elliptical-focused training block, how should I arrange elliptical sessions, strength days, and the bonus stretch to get steady improvement without guessing?
Arrange higher-effort elliptical classes on alternating training days with dedicated upper or lower body sessions on non-elliptical days, and use the provided post-workout stretch immediately after the longer elliptical session to support recovery and mobility.

How do I connect my machine and heart rate monitor to Fitscope so I can see live watts, pace, and calories during these classes?
Open Fitscope on your device, pair your compatible elliptical via Bluetooth FTMS and a Bluetooth heart rate monitor, and the app will display real-time metrics on screen. If a brand is not listed, try a compatible sensor option supported by the app.

I’m new to these rhythm and HIIT-style elliptical classes in this collection — how should I adjust effort so the classes are challenging but safe?
Follow coach cues, lower resistance or cadence compared with instructor prompts when needed, prioritize smooth pedal mechanics, scale interval intensity using perceived exertion, and use the bodyweight strength sessions to build tolerable workload over time.

What role do the bodyweight upper and lower sessions play alongside the elliptical workouts, and how should I treat them on non-elliptical days?
Use the upper and lower body sessions to build muscular balance and joint stability that support elliptical performance, treat them as targeted strength or mobility workdays, and prioritize controlled movements and breathing to enhance overall endurance.

How can I measure progress through this training block using Fitscope metrics and know when to repeat or advance the block?
Track trends in the app for effort-related metrics and perceived recovery across sessions, note improvements in sustained speed or resistance and quicker recovery between intervals, and consider repeating or advancing the block when exercises feel consistently manageable and you are ready for slightly higher challenge.
