Exercising Information
Before starting
How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you have been inactive for
several years, or are severely overweight, you must start slowly and increase your time on the equipment;
a few minutes per workout.
Initially, you may be able to exercise only for a few minutes in your target zone, however, your aerobic tness
will improve over the next six to eight weeks. Don’t be discouraged if it takes longer. It’s important to work
at your own pace. Ultimately, you’ll be able to exercise continuously for 30 minutes. The better your aerobic
tness, the harder you will have to work to stay in your target zone.
Please remember these essentials:
• Have your doctor review your training and diet programs to advise you of a workout routine you should adopt.
• Begin your training program slowly with realistic goals that have been set by you and your doctor.
• Monitor your pulse frequently. Establish your target heart rate based on your age and condition.
• Set up your equipment on a at even surface at least 3 feet from walls and furniture.

During the rst few months of your exercise program, keep your heart rate near the low end of your target zone
as you exercise. After a few months, your heart rate can be increased gradually until it is near the middle of
your target zone as you exercise.
To measure your heart rate, stop exercising but continue moving your legs or
walking around and place two ngers on your wrist. Take a six-second heartbeat
count and multiply the results by 10 to nd your heart rate. For example, if your
six-second heartbeat count is 14, your head rate is 140 beats per minute.
(A six-seconds count is used because your heart rate will drop rapidly when you
stop exercising.) Adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is at the
proper level.
Exercise intensity
To maximize the bene ts of exercising, it is important to exercise with the proper intensity. The proper intensity
level can be found by using your heart rate as a guide. For effective aerobic exercise, your heart rate should
be maintained at a level between 65% and 85% of your maximum heart rate as you exercise. This is known as
your target zone. You can nd your target zone in the table below.
Page 12

Aerobic Exercise
Aerobic exercise improves the tness of your lungs and heart - your body’s most important muscle. Aerobic
exercise tness is promoted by any activity that uses your large muscles (arms, legs, or buttock, for example).
Your heart beats quickly and you breathe deeply. An aerobic exercise should be part of your entire exercise
routine.
Exercising Information
Muscle chart
Targeted Muscle Groups
The exercise routine that is performed on the Cycle Trainer will develop the upper and lower body muscle
groups. These muscle groups are highlighted on the muscle chart below.
A: Trapezius
B: Anterior
C: Pectoralis Major
D: Serratus Anterior
E: Biceps
F: Abdominal
G: Sartorius
H: Quadriceps
I: Tibialis
J: Trapezius
K: Posterior
L: Triceps
M: Latissimus Dorsi
N: Gluteals
O: Hamstrings
P: Gastrocnemius
Weight Training
Along with aerobic exercising which helps get rid of and keep off the excess fat that our bodies can store,
weight training is an essential part of the exercise routine process. Weight training helps tone, build and
strengthen muscle. If you are working above your target zone, you may want to do a lesser amount of reps.
As always, consult your doctor before beginning any exercise program.

Exercising Information
Warming up and Cooling down exercises
Each workout should include the following three parts:
1. A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of light exercise, such as jogging on the spot, star jumps and
lunges. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for
exercise.
2. Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 minutes of exercising with your heart rate in your training
zone. (Note: During the rst few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate in your training
zone for longer than 20 minutes.)
3. A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. This will increase the exibility of your muscles and will help
to prevent post-exercise problems.
Hamstring stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the
opposite foot toward you and rest it against the
inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach toward
your toes as far as possible.
Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for each leg.
Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and groin.
Toe touch stretch
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly
bend forward from your hips. Allow your back
and shoulders to relax as you reach down
toward your toes as far as possible.
Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times.
Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and back.
Exercise Frequency
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between
workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to ve workouts each week, if desired.
Remember, the key to success is make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
Suggested Stretches
See the following basic stretching exercises. Move slowly as you stretch, never bounce.
Page 14
13
Calf/achilles stretch

and place your hands against a wall. Keep your
back leg straight and your back foot flat on the
floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move
your hips toward the wall.
Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further
stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your
back leg as well.
Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons and ankles.
Quadriceps stretch
With one hand against the wall for balance,
reach back and grasp one foot with your other
hand. Keeping your bent knee pointing directly
downward towards the oor, gentle pull your
heel towards your buttock until you feel a gentle
stretch in the target area.
Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for each leg.
Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
Exercising Information
Inner thigh stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your
knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin
area as far as possible.
