CONTACT HEART RATE HAND PULSE HEART RATE SENSORS The Contact Hand Pulse Sensors are included on each product to monitor your heart rate.

Although your signal will be displayed immediately, it may take the system a few seconds to zero in on your actual heart rate.

Page 25: Target Heart Rate
TARGET HEART RATE Target Heart Rate is a percentage of your maximum heart rate. Target Heart Rate will vary for each individual depending on age, current level of conditioning, and personal fitness goals. Exercise heart rate should range from 55% to 85% of your maximum heart rate. As a point of reference, we use the predicted maximum heart rate formula of (220 minus age) to determine your heart rate training zone.
Page 26: Rate Of Perceived Exertion
RATE OF PERCEIVED EXERTION Rate of Perceived Exertion is one of the easiest ways to monitor exercise intensity. By becoming familiar with the RPE scale, you can continually assess your level of intensity and insure a level of exertion that is comfortable.
Page 27: Balanced Fitness
BALANCED FITNESS While cardiovascular exercise has been the primary method of fitness for many programs over the years, it should not be the only method. Strength Training and Flexibility Training have become more popular as exercise has developed. Incorporating strength and flexibility training into your current exercise program will give you the balance you need to improve your athletic performance, reduce susceptibility to injury, increase metabolic rate, increase bone density, and reach your goals faster.
Page 28: Stretching
STRETCHING Flexibility training is not associated with fitness as often as cardiovascular exercise or strength training, even though it is just as important. A good stretching program will help to maintain flexibility of the hips and lower back. A flexible person will be less likely to injure themselves in common activities, such as reaching, twisting and turning, or in uncommon activities such as the annual softball tournament.
Page 29 STANDING QUADRICEPS STRETCH Using a wall to provide balance, grasp your left ankle with your left hand and hold to stretch. Your knee should be pointing toward the floor. Hold the stretch for 15 to 30 seconds. Repeat with your right leg, and continue to alternate as necessary.
