Adjusting Resistance

The Body Rider BRD2000 uses air resistance, which provides a smooth and quiet operation. To adjust the workout intensity, locate the manual tension knob, typically found near the flywheel. Turn the knob clockwise to increase resistance and counter-clockwise to decrease it. This allows you to customize your workout from light cardio to more challenging sessions.
