• NEVER mount or dismount the
treadmill while the belt is moving.
The treadmills start with at a very
low speed and it is unnecessary
to straddle the belt during start up.

Heart rate Training

A word about Heart rate:

The old motto, "no pain, no gain", is a
myth that has been overpowered by the
benefits of exercising comfortably.
A great deal of this success has been
promoted by the use of heart rate
monitors. With the proper use of a heart
rate monitor, many people find that their
usual choice of exercise intensity was
either too high or too low and exercise is
much more enjoyable by maintaining
their heart rate in the desired benefit
range.
To determine the benefit range in which
you wish to train, you must first
determine your Maximum Heart Rate.
This can be accomplished by using the
following formula: 220 minus your age.
This will give you the Maximum heart
rate (MHR) for someone of your age. To
determine the effective heart rate range
for specific goals you simply calculate a
percentage your MHR. Your Heart rate
training zone is 50% to 90% of your
maximum heart rate. 70% of your MHR
is the zone that burns fat while 80% is
12
for strengthening the cardio vascular
system. This 70% to 80% is the zone to
stay in for maximum benefit.
For someone who is 40 years old their
target heart rate zone is calculated:
220 – 40 = 180 (maximum heart rate)
180 x 0.7 = 126 beats per minute (70%
of maximum)
180 X 0.8 = 144 beats per minute (80%
of maximum)
So for a 40 year old the training zone
would be 126 to 144 beats per minute.
