HOW TO PEDAL
1. Start pushing downward on the pedal when the pedal arm is at its
highest position.
2. Stop pedaling when the pedal is at its lowest position.
3. Make sure to press downward with your feet while you are pedaling.
PRO TIP:
The included yoga resistance bands provide a great way to
exercise your arms and legs at the same time. While you are pedaling, use
the resistance bands to do bicep curls, shoulder presses, and more!
KEEP YOUR UPPER BODY STILL
Pedaling is easier when you keep your upper body still.
1. Use your legs to pedal, not your body.
2. Your head and upper body should not move while you are pedaling.
3. Don’t rock from side to side.
4. It is easier to keep your body still if you pedal downward by pressing
your feet downward--rather than forward--on the pedals.
SAFETY TIPS
• Place the FlexStride Plus on a sturdy, level, non-slip surface, with at
least 12 inches of clearance on all sides. Place a mat or rug under the
bike to protect your carpet or flooring.
• Stop exercising immediately if you feel lightheaded, or nauseous, or if
you experience pain, chest tightness, irregular heartbeat, or shortness
of breath.
• Start with the lowest resistance level.
• Slowly increase the resistance, as well as your speed and workout
duration.
• Drink plenty of water before, during, and after exercise.
• Do not sit or stand on the FlexStride Plus.
• Do not use on a full stomach.
