It is worthwhile to combine regular exercise with a
healthy diet. A person committed to dieting should
exercise daily, at first 30 minutes or less at a time,
gradually increasing the daily workout time to one hour.
Start your workout at low speed and low resistance to
prevent the cardiovascular system from being subjected
to excessive strain.
As the fitness level improves, speed and resistance can
be increased gradually. The efficiency of your exercise
can be measured by monitoring your heart rate and
your pulse rate.

Exercise Instructions

Using your fitness trainer will provide you with several
benefits, it will improve your physical fitness, tone
muscle and in conjunction with a calorie controlled diet
help you lose weight.
The warming up phase
This stage helps get the blood flowing around the body
and the muscles working properly. It will also reduce
the risk of cramp and muscle injury. It is advisable to do
a few stretching exercises as shown below. Each stretch
should be held for approximately 30 seconds, do not
force or jerk your muscles into a stretch - if it hurts,
STOP
The exercise phase
This is the stage where you put the effort in. After
regular use, the muscles in your legs will become
more flexible. Work to your but it is very important to
maintain a steady tempo throughout. The rate of work
should be sufficient to raise your heart beat into the
target zone shown on the graph below.

This stage should last for a minimum of 12 minutes
though most people start at about 15-20 minutes
The cool down phase
This stage is to let your Cardiovascular System and
muscles wind down. This is a repeat of the warm
up exercise e.g. reduce your tempo, continue for
approximately 5 minutes. The stretching exercises
should now be repeated, again remembering not to
force or jerk your muscles into the stretch.
As you get fitter you may need to train longer and
harder. It is advisable to train at least three times a
week, and if possible space your workouts evenly
throughout the week.

Muscle toning
To tone muscle while on your fitness trainer you will
need to have the resistance set quite high. This will
put more strain on our leg muscles and may mean you
cannot train for as long as you would like. If you are also
trying to improve your fitness you need to alter your
training program. You should train as normal during the
warm up and cool down phases, but towards the end
of the exercise phase you should increase resistance
making your legs work harder. You will have to reduce
your speed to keep your heart rate in the target zone.
Weight loss
The important factor here is the amount of effort you
put in. The harder and longer you work the more
calories you will burn. Effectively this is the same as if
you were training to improve your fitness, the difference
is the goal.
Heart rate
Pulse rate measurement
(hand pulse sensors)
The pulse rate is measured by sensors in the handlebars
when the user is touching both sensors at the same
time. Accurate pulse measurement requires that the
skin is slightly moist and constantly touching the hand
pulse sensors. If the skin is too dry or too moist, the
pulse rate measurement will become less accurate.
‼ NOTE
Do not use the hand pulse sensors in
combination with a heart rate chest belt.
If you set a heart rate limit for your workout, an
alarm will sound when it is exceeded.
Heart rate measurement
(heart rate chest belt)
‼ NOTE
A chest strap does not come standard with this
trainer. When you like to use a wireless chest
strap you need to purchase this as an accessory.
The most accurate heart rate measurement is achieved
with a heart rate chest belt. The heart rate is measured
by a heart rate receiver in combination with a heart rate
transmitter belt. Accurate heart measurement requires
that the electrodes on the transmitter belt are slight
moist and constantly touching the skin. If the electrodes
are too dry or too moist, the heart rate measurement
will become less accurate.
⚠ WARNING
If you have a pacemaker, consult a physician
before using a heartrate chest belt.
