This stage should last for a minimum of 12 minutes though most people start at about 15-20
minutes
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 RECUMBENT 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.
