During heart rate program 1, the same target
heart rate setting will be programmed for all segments of the program. If you have selected heart
rate program 1, press the increase and decrease

During heart rate program 2, different target
heart rate settings will be programmed for different

During both programs, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting for the current segment of the program. If
your heart rate is too far below or above the target
heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals will
automatically increase or decrease to bring your
heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
Each time the resistance changes, the resistance
setting will appear in the display for a few seconds
to alert you.
While you exercise, you will be prompted to maintain a constant pedaling pace. If an upward-pointing arrow appears in the display (see the drawing

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING:
Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of
35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is
intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.
These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise
program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a
reputable book or consult your physician. Remember,
proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for
successful results.
Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-
ise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of
c
time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your

t
burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is near the lowest number in your training
zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your
heart rate near the middle number in your training
zone.
Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic
exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts
of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your
training zone.

EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper intensity is the key to achieving results. You can use your
heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.
The chart below shows recommended heart rates for
fat burning, maximum fat burning, and aerobic
exercise.
o find the proper intensity level, first find your age at
T
the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the
nearest ten years). The three numbers listed above
your age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number
is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the
highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Warm-up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and
light exercise. Awarm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for
exercise.
Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During
the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not
keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer
than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you
exercise–never hold your breath.
Cool-down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.
Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and
will help to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
o maintain or improve your condition, complete three
T
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest
between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each
week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to
make exercis e a regular and enjoyable part of your
everyday life.
