Page 12: Getting On / Off Your Elliptical
Getting on / off your elliptical IMPORTANT The elliptical comes with two Dual Action Handles and a Stationary Handlebar. Always hold the Stationary Handlebar when getting on and off the elliptical. First time users should familiarize themselves with using the elliptical by using the Stationary Handlebar first and then progressing to the Dual Action Handles. - Page 13 Correct Position Your body should be in an upright position so that your back is straight. Keep your head up to minimize neck and upper back strain. Always try and use the elliptical in a rhythmical and smooth motion. If you find yourself feeling uncomfortable, or experience a surging type feeling, there is probably too much tension.

As you increase the work load more rows will light indicating a harder workout. The elliptical trainer will get harder to pedal as the rows increase. There are 40 levels of resistance available for plenty of variety. The first 10 levels are very easy workloads and the changes between levels are set to a good progression for de-conditioned users. - Page 18 If you enter your Age and Weight the first time you use the elliptical trainer, you will not have to enter it ever y time you work out unless either your Age or Weight changes,...

Page 25: Preset Programs
Preset Programs The elliptical has five different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts. These five programs have factory preset work level profiles for achieving different goals. Hill This program follows a triangle or pyramid type of gradual progression from approximately 10% of maximum effort (the level that you chose before starting this program) up to a maximum effort which lasts for 10% of the total workout time, then a gradual regression of resistance back to approximately 10% of maximum effort... - Page 26 Strength This program has a gradual progression of resistance up to 100% of maximum effort that is sustained for 25% of workout duration. This will help build strength and muscular endurance in the lower body and glutes. A brief cool down follows. Interval This program takes you through high levels of intensity followed by recovery periods of low intensity.
- Page 27 Heart Rate Programs Before we get started, 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 28: Rate Of Perceived Exertion
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. -

Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain comfortable. - Page 30 Heart Rate Program Operation Note: You must wear the heart rate transmitter strap for these programs Both programs operate the same, the only difference is that HR1 is set to 60% and HR2 is set to 80% of the maximum heart rate. They both are programmed the same way. To start an HR program follow the instructions below or just select the HR1 or HR2 program, then the Enter button and follow the directions in the Message Center.
