Frequent and strenuous exercise should be approved by your doctor. If any discomfort should result from your use of this product, stop exercising and consult your doctor. Proper usage of this product is essential. Please read your manual carefully before exercising. Please keep all children away from the equipment during use and when equipment is unattended. Always wear appropriate clothing, including athletic shoes, when exercising. Do not wear loose clothing that could become caught during exercising. Make sure that all bolts and nuts are tightened when equipment is in use. Periodic maintenance is required on all exercise equipment to keep it in good condition. Before beginning How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you have been inactive for several years, or are severely overweight, you must start slowly and increase your time gradually, a few minutes per week. Initially you may be able to exercise only for a few minutes in your target zone. However, your aerobic fitness will improve over the next six to eight weeks. Don’t be discouraged if it takes longer. It’s important to work at your own pace. Ultimately, you’ll be able to exercise continuously for 30 minutes. And the better your aerobic fitness, the harder you will have to work to stay in your target zone. But remember these essentials: >Contact your physician before starting a workout or training program. Have your doctor review your training and diet programs to advise you of a workout routine you should adopt. >Begin your training program slowly with realistic goals that have been set by you and your doctor. >Supplement your program with some type of aerobic exercise such as walking, jogging, swimming, dancing and/or bicycling. Monitor your pulse frequently. If you do not have an electronic heart rate monitor, have your physician show you the proper way to manually check your pulse by using your wrist or neck. Establish your target heart rate based on your age and condition. >Drink plenty of fluids during the course of your routine. You must replace the water content lost from excessive exercising to avoid dehydration. Avoid drinking large amounts of cold liquids. Fluids should be at room temperature when consumed. important -7 target heart rate target heart rate EXERCISING IN YOUR TARGET ZONE Finding your pulse To make sure your heart is beating in its target zone, you’ll need to know how to monitor your heart rate. The easiest way is to feel the pulse in the carotid artery on either side of your neck, between the windpipe and the large neck muscles. Count the number of beats in ten seconds, then multiply by six. This gives you the number of beats per minute. How fast should your heart beat during aerobic exercise? Fast enough to reach and stay in its “target zone,” a range of beats per minute that is largely determined by your age and physical condition. To determine your target zone, consult the chart we have provided. 200 180 160 140 120 100 80 AGE IN YEARS PULSE IN BEATS PER MINUTEHEALTH•Beginner, low intensity with longduration produces fat burning FITNESS•Optimal training, aerobicor cardiovascular190 170 150 130 110 90 70 ADVANCED•Sports, athletic conditioning orinterval training 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 Aerobic exercise is any most important muscle.
