3. The Cool Down Phase
This stage is to let your Cardio-vascular System and muscles wind down. This is a repeat of the
warm up exercise e.g. reduce your tempo, continue for approximately 5 minutes. The stretching
exercises should now be repeated, again remembering not to force or jerk your muscles into the
stretch.
As you get fitter you may need to train longer and harder. It is advisable to train at least three
times a week, and if possible space your workouts evenly throughout the week.
MUSCLE TONING
To tone muscle while on your
MAGNETIC ROWING MACHINE
you will need to have the
resistance set quite high. This will put more strain on our leg muscles and may mean you cannot
train for as long as you would like. If you are also trying to improve your fitness you need to alter
your training program. You should train as normal during the warm up and cool down phases, but
towards the end of the exercise phase you should increase resistance making your legs work
harder. You will have to reduce your speed to keep your heart rate in the target zone.
WEIGHT LOSS
The important factor here is the amount of effort you put in. The harder and longer you work the
more calories you will burn. Effectively this is the same as if you were training to improve your
fitness, the difference is the goal.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Proper maintenance is very important to ensure your equipment is always in top working
condition. Improper maintenance could cause damage or shorten the life of your equipment and
exceed the WARRANTY coverage.
Important
: Never use abrasives or solvents to clean the equipment. To prevent damage to the
computer, keep liquids away and keep it out of direct sunlight.
After each workout: Wipe off the console and other frame surfaces with a clean, water dampened
soft cloth to remover excess perspiration. Inspect and tighten all parts of the equipment regularly.
Replace any worn parts immediately.
Don’t use the equipment before the worn parts were replaced by new one.
Special attention to the belt is most susceptible wear. When you feel the exercising is not smooth,
please check the status of the belt or call the service hot line.
