Using your
CROSS TRAINER
will provide you with several benefits. It will improve your physical fitness, tone your
muscles and, in conjunction with a calorie-controlled diet, help you lose weight.
1.The Warm-Up Phase
This stage helps get the blood flowing around the body and the muscles working properly. It will also reduce the
risk of cramp and muscle injury. It is advisable to do a few stretching exercises as shown below. Each stretch
should be held for approximately 30 seconds. Do not force or jerk your muscles into a stretch - if it hurts,
STOP.
2.The Exercise Phase
This is the stage where you put the effort in. After regular use, the muscles in your legs will become
more flexible. Work at your own pace, but be sure to maintain a steady tempo throughout. The rate of
work should be sufficient to raise your heartbeat into the target zone shown on the graph below.
