    WORKOUT INSTRUCTIONS Heart-rate measuring Pulse measuring via hand sensors The hand sensors integrated in the handles beside the seat allow you to determine your heart rate. You can measure your heart rate by lightly grasping the sensors with both hands at the same time. Blood pressure changes occur due to the heartbeat. The sensors measure the changes to the electric skin resistance caused by it.
  • Page 28 while exercising. The transmitter turns on automatically once it is put on. In order to allow for a precise measuring, you should moisten the rubber electrodes. This is best done with a special chest strap contact gel, which is also used for ultrasound scans. Note: If you have not been active in doing sports for a longer period of time, you should first go to your physician in order to discuss your training with them.
