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 to your but it is very important to
maintain a steady tempo throughout. The rate of work
should be sufficient to raise your heart beat into the
target zone shown on the graph below.

TARGET ZONE
This stage should last for a minimum of 12 minutes
though most people start at about 15-20 minutes
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 fitness trainer you will
need to have the resistance set quite high. This will
put more strain on our 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.
Heart 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. Accurate pulse measurement requires that 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 will 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
Maximum heart rate
(during training)
The maximum heart rate is the highest heart rate a
person can safely achieve through exercise stress. The
following formula is used to calculate the average
maximum heart rate: 220 - AGE. The maximum heart
rate varies from person to person.
WARNING
• Make sure that you do not exceed your
maximum heart rate during your workout. If you
belong to a risk group, consult a physician.
