The Cool Down Phase
This stage is to let your Cardiovascular System and muscles wind down. This is a
repeat of the warm up exercise e.g. reduce your tempo, continue for approximately
5 minutes. The stretching exercises should now be repeated, again remembering
not to force or jerk your muscles into the stretch. As you get fitter you may need to
train longer and harder. It is advisable to train at least three times a week, and if
possible space your workouts evenly throughout the week.
Muscle Toning
To tone muscle while on your EXERCISE CYCLE you will need to have the
resistance set quite high. This will put more strain on your leg muscles and may
mean you cannot train for as long as you would like. If you are also trying to
improve your fitness you need to alter your training program. You should train
as normal during the warm up and cool down phases, but towards the end of the
exercise phase you should increase resistance making your legs work harder.
You will have to reduce your speed to keep your heart rate in the target zone.
Weight Loss
The important factor here is the amount of effort you put in. The harder and longer
you work the more calories you will burn. Effectively this is the same as if you were
training to improve your fitness, the difference is the goal.
