FITNESS TIPS  
CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN  
Before using this product, please consult your personal physician for a complete physical  
examination. 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.

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.

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.

Calf/Achilles stretch  
Lean against a wall with your left leg in front of  
the right and your arms forward. Keep your  
right leg straight and the left foot on the floor.  
Then bend the left leg and lean forward by  
moving your hips toward the wall. 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.
