❐
Pregnant women should not use the device or should use it only after consultation with
their doctor.
❐
CAUTION : Stop training immediately if you suddenly feel weak or dizzy. If you feel sick,
have pains in the chest or arms, an irregular heartbeat or other unusual symptoms, seek
medical attention immediately.
❐
Before each training session, you should first do a few warm-up exercises without the
device. Begin the exercises slowly and only increase the intensity gradually until you reach
the desired performance level that you are still capable of maintaining.
❐
Never train with a full stomach. Do not eat any meals for around an hour before and after
training.
❐
Do not train if you are already tired and weary.
❐
Always remember that your body needs lots of fluid when doing any sporting activity. You
should also meet this need for fluid.
Always remember that training on this training device can be of great benefit to your
health if you follow the most important rules:
– It is not about doing a few exercises as quickly as you can, but about training on a
regular basis over the long term.
– The body – in particular the heart and the circulatory system – take time to adjust
to the changes which are caused by the training. For this reason, it is particularly
important to increase the level of your workout very slowly and you must make sure
that you take appropriate breaks during and after training. You should therefore
first train at a performance level at which you do not burn yourself out. Particularly
when you first start, you should train at a pace which you find pleasant. After regular
training, you can increase the length of training or move the setting on the device
to a higher level of difficulty.
– You should not start or stop your own training abruptly. You have all the time in
the world as you are after all training in the comfort of your own home. Before
you perform the actual exercise, you should warm up at a slow pace and with only
slight physical effort. At the end of your training session, you should also finish at a
slow pace and with only slight physical effort. You should then do a few stretching
exercises.
Warm-Up Exercises
Warming up should be a fundamental part of any sporting activity. It stimulates and enhances all
of the physical and mental components of performance capacity, and it greatly reduces the risk
of injury. Casually jog for approx. 5 to 10 minutes on the spot or around the room. Intersperse
this with a few spins and jumps.
