7. General fitness tips
Start your exercise program slowly, i.e. one exercise unit every 2 days. Increase your exercise session week by week. Begin with short
periods per exercise and then increase these continually. Start slowly with the exercise sessions and don’t set yourself impossible targets.
In addition to these exercises, do other forms of exercise such as jogging, swimming, dancing and/or cycling.
Always warm up thoroughly before exercising. To do so, carry out at least five minutes of stretching or gymnastic exercises to avoid muscle
strains and injuries.
Check your pulse regularly. If you do not have a pulse measuring instrument, ask your GP how you can measure your heart rate effectively.
Determine your personal exercise frequency range to achieve optimal training success. Take into account both your age and your level of
fitness. The table on page 16 will give you a reference point for determining the optimal exercise pulse.
Make sure you breathe regularly and calmly when exercising.
Take care to drink enough while exercising. This ensures that the liquid requirement of your body is satisfied. Consider that the
recommended drinking amount of 2-3 litres per day is strongly increased through physical strain. The fluid you drink should be at room
temperature.
When exercising on the device always wear light and comfortable clothing as well as sports shoes. Do not wear any loose clothing that
could tear or become caught in the device whilst exercising.
