HEART RATE PROGRAMS 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 choice of exercise intensity is either too high or too low and exercise is much more enjoyable by maintaining their heart rate in the desired benefit range.
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 work out 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: a. 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 54
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. As your fitness level improves, so the training threshold should be raised.
Page 55
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. This is for two reasons: (a) 10 seconds is long enough for accuracy, and (b) the pulse count is to approximate your BPM rate at the time you are exercising.
Muscle Soreness For the first week or so, this may be the only indication you have that you are on an exercise program. This, of course, does depend on your overall fitness level. A confirmation that you are on the correct program is a very slight soreness in most major muscle groups. This is quite normal and will disappear in a matter of days.
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; no pain is felt in the muscle and hold for 20-30 seconds.

INNER THIGH STRETCH TOE TOUCHES Sit with the soles of your feet together Slowly bend forward from your waist, with your knees pointing outward. Pull letting your back and shoulders relax your feet as close to your groin as as you stretch toward your toes. Reach possible.
