3) LOW GLIDE

Start with a Basic Glide movement. Gradually

bend your knees deeper and increase the length
of your glide. Let your heels naturally lift as each
leg moves to the back. Maintain upright posture
throughout this exercise, with your shoulders
aligned over your hips. Avoid bending your knees
so deeply that they bump against the front swing
arms. This exercise can be performed with the
neutral or low hand grip positions. You will feel
additional emphasis in your thighs during 
this exercise.

1) BASIC GLIDE

Stand upright on the foot platforms with your

hands in the neutral position. Your knees should
be “soft,” not locked. Glide your feet back and
forth in a controlled manner. The front of each
foot platform should glide slightly past the base
of the unit frame. Push and pull gently with your
arms to assist the leg motion. Maintain good,
upright posture throughout this exercise, with
your shoulders aligned directly over your hips.
This exercise can be performed with the neutral,
low or high hand grip positions.

2) WIDE GLIDE

Start with a Basic Glide movement. Gradually

increase the length of your stride as far as you
comfortably can. Your heels will naturally lift
slightly as each leg moves to the back. Do not
attempt to keep your heel pressed to the foot
platform, but allow this lifting motion to occur.
Maintain good, upright posture throughout this
exercise, and a “soft” knee position. Glide only as
wide as you can while maintaining good balance
and posture. This exercise can be performed with
the neutral or low hand grip positions.

GENERAL WORKOUT RECOMMENDATIONS

On the following pages are seven basic exercises that will comprise 

your Gazelle Edge™ workout. Before performing any of the exercises, first
read through these instructions for correct exercise execution.

When you are ready to begin your workout, be sure your equipment is

set up correctly and you’ve warmed up adequately. Begin with the first
exercise and continue through all of the exercises in one continuous cycle,
unless you need to take a break. We recommend that you perform 20 - 40
gliding repetitions of each exercise. A single repetition is counted when
both legs have glided forward and back (R + L = 1 repetition). Take time 
to cool down and stretch at the end of your workout.

Remember, you will notice that your feet shift a little bit when using

your Air Glider. It is recommended that beginners keep their toes against
the toe plate until they feel comfortable with their balance.

Be sure to drink plenty of water before,

during and after your workout.
