Workouts
The workout must be suitably light, but
of long duration. Aerobic exercise is
based on improving the body’s maximum
oxygen uptake, which in turn improves
endurance and fitness. You should
perspire, but you should not get out of
breath during the workout.
To reach and maintain a basic fitness
level, exercise at least three times a
week, 30 minutes at a time. Increase the
number of exercise sessions to improve
your fitness level. It is worthwhile to
combine regular exercise with a healthy
diet. A person committed to dieting
should exercise daily, at first 30 minutes
or less at a time, gradually increasing the
daily workout time to one hour.
Start your workout at low speed and low
resistance to prevent the cardiovascular
system from being subjected to
excessive strain. As the fitness level
improves, speed and resistance can
be increased gradually. The efficiency
of your exercise can be measured by
monitoring your heart rate and your
pulse rate.
Pulse rate measurement
(hand pulse sensors)
The pulse rate is measured by sensors
in the handlebars when the user is
touching both sensors at the same time.
WARNING
Heart rate monitoring systems may be
inaccurate. Over exercise may result in
serious injury or death. If you feel faint
stop exercising immediately.
Most accurate pulse measurement is
achieved when the skin is slightly moist
and constantly touching the hand pulse
sensors. If the skin is too dry or too
moist, the pulse rate measurement might
become less accurate.
NOTE
Do not use the hand pulse sensors in
combination with a heart rate chest belt.
If you set a heart rate limit for your
workout, an alarm will sound when it is
exceeded.
Heart rate measurement
(heart rate chest belt)
The most accurate heart rate
measurement is achieved with a
heart rate chest belt. The heart rate is
measured by a heart rate receiver in
combination with a heart rate transmitter
belt. Accurate heart measurement
requires that the electrodes on the
transmitter belt are slight moist and
constantly touching the skin. If the
electrodes are too dry or too moist, the
heart rate measurement might become
less accurate.
WARNING
If you have a pacemaker, consult a
physician before using a heart rate chest
belt.
CAUTION
If there are several heart rate
measurement devices next to each
other, make sure that the distance
between them is at least 2 meter.
If there is only one heart rate receiver
and several heart rate transmitters,
make sure that only one person with a
transmitter is within transmission range.
NOTE
• Do not use a heart rate chest belt
in combination with the hand pulse
sensors.
• Always wear the heart rate chest belt
under your clothes directly in contact
with your skin. Do not wear the heart
rate chest belt above your clothes.
If you wear the heart rate chest belt
above your clothes, there will be no
signal.
