TRAINING TIPS
All recommendations in this manual are only intended for healthy persons and not for
persons with heart/cardiovascular problems!
All tips are only rough suggestions for a training program. If necessary, consult your
doctor for corresponding tips with respect to your personal requirements.
The following pages will explain exactly how to operate your new training device and will
illustrate the fundamentals of fitness training. In order to reach your desired training goal,
it is imperative to inform yourself about important points for creating a training program
in general and about the exact way to operate your Hometrainer using this manual as a
guide. That is why we ask you to please read all of the points listed here thoroughly and
to pay close attention to them.
DESIGNING A TRAINING PROGRAM
In order to reach noticeable physical and health improvements, the following factors have
to be considered before determining the necessary training effort.
1. INTENSITY
The level of physical strain during training must exceed the normal burden without
reaching a point of breathlessness or exhaustion.
A suitable guideline for effective training is your pulse. During training, it should be at a
level between 70% and 85% of your maximum pulse. (For determination and calculation
thereof, see 13. PULSE MEASURING TABLE).
During the first week, your pulse should remain in the lower 70% of your maximum pulse
during training. Over the course of the following weeks and months, your pulse frequency
should slowly increase to the upper level of 85% of your maximum pulse. The better your
physical condition gets, the more your training efforts must be increased. This can be
achieved by increasing the training duration and/or increasing the difficulty level.
