HEART RATE
No matter what your goal, you’ll get the
best results by training at the right level
of effort, and the best measure is your
own heart rate. First find your maximum
heart rate i.e. where the rate doesn’t
increase with added effort. If you don’t
know your maximum heart rate, please
use the following formula as a guide:
220 - AGE
The maximum varies from person
to person. The maximum heart rate
diminishes on average by one point per
year. If you belong to one of the risk
groups mentioned earlier, ask a doctor
to measure your maximum heart rate
for you. We have defined three different
heart-rate zones to help you with
targeted training.
BEGINNER:
50-60 % of maximum heart rate
Also suitable for weight-watchers,
convalescents and those who haven’t
exercised for a long time. Three
sessions a week of at least a half-
hour each is recommended. Regular
exercise considerably improves
beginners’ respiratory and circulatory
performance and you will quickly feel
your improvement.
TRAINER:
60-70 % of maximum heart rate Perfect
for improving and maintaining fitness.
Even reasonable effort develops the
heart and lungs effectively, training for
a minimum of 30 minutes at least three
times a week. To improve your condition
still further, increase either frequency or
effort, but not both at the same time!
ACTIVE TRAINER:
70-80 % of maximum heart rate Exercise
at this level suits only the fittest and
presupposes long-endurance workouts.
BEGINNING AN EXERCISE SESSION
• To avoid muscular pain and strain,
begin and end each workout by
stretching.
• Stand on the landing rails to the left
and right of the running belt. Do not
stand on the running belt.
• Always hold the handrail for support
when getting on or off the treadmill
and when changing the speed during
exercise. Do not jump off the running
belt while it is moving!
• If you experience nausea, dizziness
or other abnormal symptoms while
exercising, stop your workout at once
• and consult a physician.
FINISHING AN EXERCISE SESSION
• Never leave the safety tether key in
the treadmill.
• Use the main power switch to turn
the unit off.
• Unplug the electrical cord from the
wall outlet and from the treadmill.
• If necessary clean the treadmill from
sweat with a damp cloth. Do not use
solvents.
• Store the electrical cord where it is
clear from all pathways and out of
childrens’ reach.
HOW TO MOTIVATE YOURSELF TO
CONTINUE
In order to reach the goals you have set,
you’ll need to keep finding the motivation
to continue so you achieve your ultimate
goal: life-long health and a new quality of
living.
• Set yourself realistic targets.
• Progress step-by-step according to
your schedule.
• Keep a fitness diary and write down
your progress.
• Change your way of exercising from
time to time.
• Use your imagination.
• Learn self-discipline.
One important aspect of your training
is versatility. Varying your training
exercises different muscle groups and
helps maintain motivation.
