Your doctor should approve frequent and strenuous exercise. If any discomfort   should result from your use of this product, stop exercising and consult your doctor. Proper   usage of this product is essential. Please read your manual carefully before exercising.   Please keep all children away from the equipment during use and when equipment is   unattended.   Dress comfortably   Always wear appropriate clothing, including athletic shoes, when exercising. Do not wear loose   clothing that could become caught during exercise.   Check your equipment   Make sure that all bolts and nuts are tightened when equipment is in use. Periodic   maintenance is required on all exercise equipment in order to keep it in good condition.   Begin at your Fitness level   How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you have been   inactive for several years, or are severely overweight, you must start slowly and increase your   time gradually, a few minutes per week.   Initially you may be able to exercise only for a few minutes in your target zone; however, your   aerobic fitness will improve over the next six to eight weeks. Do not become discouraged if it   takes longer. It is important to work at your own pace. Ultimately you will be able to exercise   continuously for 30 minutes. The better your aerobic fitness, the harder you will have to work to   stay in your target zone. But remember these essentials.   Contact your physician before starting a workout or training program. Have him review your   training and diet programs to advise you on a workout routine you should adopt.   Begin your training program slowly with realistic goals that have been set by you and your   physician. Supplement your program with some type of aerobic exercise such as: Walking,   Jogging, Swimming, Dancing and Bike Riding.   Monitor your pulse frequently. If you do not have an electronic heart rate monitor, have your   physician show you the proper way to manually check your pulse by using your wrist or neck.   Establish your target heart rate based on your age and condition.   Drink plenty of fluids during the course of your routine. You must replace the water content that   you have lost from excessive exercising to avoid dehydration. Fluids should be room   temperature when consumed. Avoid drinking large amounts of cold liquids.   Check your pulse   To make sure your heart is beating in its target zone, you will need to know how to monitor your   heart rate. The easiest way is to feel the pulse in the carotid artery on either side of your neck,   between the windpipe and the large neck muscles. Count the number of beats in ten seconds,   then multiply by six. This gives you the number of beats per minute.   11   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   Exercising in your target zone   How fast should your heart beat during aerobic   exercise? Fast enough to reach and stay in its   “target zone”, a range of beats per minute that   is largely determined by our age and physical   condition. To determine your target zone,   consult the chart we provide.   Warming cool down   A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cool-down. Do   the entire program at least two or preferably three times a week, resting for a day between   workouts. After several months you can increase your workouts to four or five times per week.   Warming up is an important part of your workout, and should begin every session. It prepares   your body for more strenuous exercise by heating up and stretching out your muscles. At the   end of your workout, repeat these exercises to reduce sore muscle problems. We suggest the   following warm-up and cool-down exercises:   Head rolls   Rotate your head to the right for one count, feeling the   stretch up the left side of your neck. Next rotate your head   back for one count, stretching your chin to the ceiling and   letting your mouth open. Rotate your head to the left for one   count, and finally, drop your head to your chest for one count.   Shoulder lifts   Lift your right shoulder up toward your ear for one count.   Then lift your left shoulder up for one count as you lower your   right shoulder.   12   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   Side stretches   Open your arms to the side and continue lifting them until they   are over your head. Reach your right arm as far upward   toward the ceiling as you can for one count. Feel the stretch   up your right side. Repeat this action with your left arm.   Quadriceps stretch   With one hand against a wall for balance, reach behind you   and pull your right foot up. Bring your heels as close to your   buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts and repeat with   left foot up.   Inner thigh stretch   Sit with the soles of your feet together with your   knees pointing outward. Pull your feet as close into   your groin as possible. Gently push your knees   toward the floor. Hold for 15 counts.   Toe touches   Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your back and shoulders   relax as you stretch toward your toes. Reach down as far as you can and   hold for 15 counts.   Hamstring stretches   Sit with your right leg extended. Rest the sole of your left   foot against your tight inner thigh. Stretch toward your toe as   far as possible. Hold for 15 counts. Relax and then repeat   with left leg extended.   13   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Hold, then repeat on the   other side for 15 counts.   Aerobic exercise   Aerobic exercise is any sustained activity that   sends oxygen to your muscles via your heart and   lungs—your body’s most important muscle.   Aerobic fitness is promoted by any activity that   uses your large muscles—arms, legs, or   buttocks, for example. Your heart beats quickly   and you breathe deeply. An aerobic exercise   should be part of your entire exercise routine.   Weight training   Along with aerobic exercising which helps get rid of and keep off the excess fat that our bodies   can store, training is an essential part of the exercise routine process. Weight training helps   tone, build and strengthen muscle. If you are working above your target zone, you may want to   do a less amount of reps. And as always, consult your physician before beginning any exercise   program.   14   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.
