WORKING OUT
MYRUN TECHNOGYM simulates walking and running, aerobic activities that can be performed at
various levels of intensity and are useful for joint and cardiovascular rehabilitation exercises. The
range of users this treadmill is suitable for is therefore broad and diversified
– from professional
athletes, to those who want to focus on cardio training, to those who wish to improve and maintain
their physical fitness.
Step onto the running surface from the rear and place one foot on each side of the footrest. In this
position, hold on to the side handgrip with one hand and use the other hand to press the Start key to
start the exercise.
When the treadmill starts, hold on to the side handgrips with both hands and start walking slowly.
The handgrips guarantee better safety when you use the equipment for the first time. However, later
on it is better to walk or run without any support, to improve your balance and posture.
At a speed of about 6
– 7 km/h, fast walking becomes a gentle run, with gradually lengthening strides.
The speed will increase gradually, as you feel more sure and stable.
It is important not to lean too forwards or backwards. The correct posture is:
head high, shoulders in
line with your pelvis, arms relaxed with elbows bent at 90°, looking forwards at a point 5 – 6 m
ahead.
Your strides should be regular, legs and feet must stay parallel
and at the centre of the treadmill.
To rest or get off without stopping the treadmill, you just have to grip the handgrips and move your feet
onto the side footrests.
Do not walk or run backwards.
Only one person can use the equipment at the time.
Any distractions in the area around the treadmill may cause you to lose balance.
MYRUN TECHNOGYM is intended to be used solely for the purpose for which it was designed
and constructed, that is for simulated walking or running. Any other use of the treadmill is to
be considered improper and therefore dangerous.
It is very important that your heart rate never goes above 90% of the theoretical maximum (unless you
are an athlete engaged in competitive sport).
For this reason, we suggest that you use a device to monitor your heart rate.
The heart rate shown on the display is only approximate and cannot be considered to be absolutely
certain.
You will need a Bluetooth 4.0 band in order to use the App (iOS and Android) provided to monitor your
heart rate.
The table below shows optimal heart rate levels in relation to the user’s age and aim. Theoretical
maximum heart rate (100%) is calculated on the basis of the user’s age using the following formula:
