Using your
PROGRAMMABLE MAGNETIC BIKE
will provide you with several benefits. It will improve your physical
fitness, tone your muscles and, in conjunction with a calorie-controlled diet, help you lose weight.
1.The Warm Up Phase
This stage helps get the blood flowing around the body and the muscles working properly. It will also reduce the risk
of cramp and muscle injury. It is advisable to do a few stretching exercises as shown below. Each stretch should be
held for approximately 30 seconds, do not force or jerk your muscles into a stretch - if it hurts, STOP.
2.The Exercise Phase
This is the stage where you put the effort in. After regular use, the muscles in your legs will become more flexible.
Work at your own pace and be sure to maintain a steady tempo throughout. The rate of work should be sufficient to
raise your heartbeat into the target zone shown on the graph below.

3. The Cool Down Phase
This stage is to let your Cardio-vascular 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
PROGRAMMABLE MAGNETIC BIKE
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.
