USING A HEART RATE TRANSMITTER (optional) How to wear your wireless chest strap transmitter: 1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the locking parts. 2. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain comfortable.
Page 26
HEART RATE 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.
Page 27
RATE OF PERCEIVED EXERTION Heart rate is important but listening to your body also has a lot of advantages. There are more variables involved in how hard you should workout than just heart rate. Your stress level, physical health, emotional health, temperature, humidity, the time of day, the last time you ate and what you ate, all contribute to the intensity at which you should workout.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE 1. Wipe down all areas in the sweat path with a damp cloth after each workout. 2. If a squeak, thump, clicking or rough feeling develops the main cause is most likely one of two reasons: 1) The hardware was not sufficiently tightened during assembly. All bolts that were installed during assembly need to be tightened as much as possible.

TRAINING GUIDELINES EXERCISE Exercise is one of the most important factors in the overall health of an individual. Listed among its benefits are: Increased capacity for physical work (strength endurance) Increased cardiovascular (heart and arteries/veins) and respiratory efficiency ...
Page 35
Progression As your become fitter, a higher intensity of exercise is required to create an overload and therefore provide continued improvement Overload This is where you exercise at a level above that which can be carried out comfortably. The intensity, duration and frequency of exercise should be above the training threshold and should be gradually increased as the body adapts to the increasing demands.
Page 36
The following table is a guide to those who are “starting fitness”. Target heart Rate 10 Second Count Beats per Minute 132 126 120 Pulse Count The pulse count (on your wrist or carotid artery in the neck, taken with two index fingers) is done for ten seconds, taken a few seconds after you stop exercising.
Page 37
ENDURANCE CIRCUIT TRAINING Cardiovascular endurance, muscle, strength, flexibility and coordination are all necessary for maximum fitness. The principle behind circuit training is to give a person all the essentials at one time by going through your exercise program moving as fast as possible between each exercise.
STRETCHING Stretching should be included in both your warm up and cool down, and should be performed after 3-5 minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or callisthenic type exercise. Movements should be performed slowly and smoothly, with no bouncing or jerking. Move into the stretch until slight tension, not pain, is felt in the muscle and hold for 20-30 seconds.
Page 39
TOUCHES INNER THIGH STRETCH Slowly bend forward from your waist, Sit with the soles of your feet together letting your back and shoulders relax as with your knees pointing outward. Pull you stretch toward your toes. Reach your feet as close into your groin as down as far as you can and hold for 15 possible.
