A device may receive user input for a customized workout, the user input including at least one exercise parameter. A device may generate, based on the at least one exercise parameter, a plurality of exercise device controls, the plurality of exercise device controls configured to adjust at least one exercise parameter of an exercise device. A device may generate an exercise program to be implemented on the exercise device, the exercise program including the plurality of exercise device controls.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for generating exercise programs, comprising:
 receiving a user input for a customized workout, the user input including at least one exercise parameter;   generating, based at least in part on the at least one exercise parameter, a plurality of exercise device controls, the plurality of exercise device controls configured to adjust at least one operating parameter of an exercise device; and   generating an exercise program to be implemented on the exercise device, the exercise program comprising the plurality of exercise device controls.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 implementing the exercise program on the exercise device.   
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein, while implementing the exercise program, the exercise device controls cause the at least one operating parameter of the exercise device to be adjusted. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one exercise parameter comprises a duration of a workout segment. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one exercise parameter comprises an intensity of a workout segment. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 5 , wherein the intensity of the workout segment is associated with a pace. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 5 , wherein the intensity of the workout segment is associated with an incline. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 5 , wherein the intensity of the workout segment is associated with a target heartrate range of the workout segment. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one exercise parameter includes a duration, a pace, an incline of a workout segment, or any combination thereof. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 9 , wherein the at least one operating parameter of the exercise device includes a belt speed of a tread belt of the exercise device, the belt speed associated with the pace, a deck incline of a deck of the exercise device, the deck incline associated with the incline, or any combination thereof. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , further comprising:
 implementing the exercise program, wherein implementing the exercise program comprises:
 maintaining the belt speed and the deck incline for the duration of the workout segment. 
   
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one operating parameter of the exercise device comprises a belt speed of a tread belt of the exercise device. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one operating parameter of the exercise device comprises a deck incline of a deck of the exercise device. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one operating parameter of the exercise device comprises a resistance of a flywheel of the exercise device. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one exercise parameter includes a target heartrate, and wherein generating the plurality of exercise device controls comprises:
 determining the plurality of exercise device controls based at least in part on the target heartrate and a fitness level of a user.   
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one exercise parameter comprises an on-device parameter and an off-device parameter, the on-device parameter comprising an on-device exercise activity completable through operation of the exercise device, the off-device parameter comprising an off-device exercise activity completable separate from the exercise device. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein generating the plurality of exercise device controls comprises:
 generating a stop-device control configured to stop operation of the exercise device based at least in part on the off-device exercise activity.   
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein generating the plurality of exercise device controls comprises:
 generating a start-device control configured to start operation of the exercise device after completion of the off-device exercise activity.   
     
     
         19 . An exercise system, comprising:
 an exercise device;   one or more memories comprising instructions; and   one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories and configured to execute the instructions to cause the exercise system to:
 receive a user input for a customized workout, the user input including at least one exercise parameter; 
 generate, based at least in part on the at least one exercise parameter, a plurality of exercise device controls, the plurality of exercise device controls configured to adjust at least one operating parameter of the exercise device; and 
 generate an exercise program to be implemented on the exercise device, the exercise program comprising the plurality of exercise device controls. 
   
     
     
         20 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code comprising instructions which, when executed by one or more processors of an exercise device, cause the exercise device to:
 receive a user input for a customized workout, the user input including at least one exercise parameter;   generate, based at least in part on the at least one exercise parameter, a plurality of exercise device controls, the plurality of exercise device controls configured to adjust at least one operating parameter of the exercise device; and   generate an exercise program to be implemented on the exercise device, the exercise program comprising the plurality of exercise device controls.
