FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers an array of features designed to make your workouts more effective and enjoyable. When you select the manual mode of the console, you can change the resistance of the pedals and the incline of the ramp with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor or the included chest pulse sensor.

The console also offers twenty preset workouts. Each workout automatically changes the resistance of the pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease your pedaling pace as it guides you through an effective workout.

The console also offers two custom workouts that allow you to create your own workouts and store them in memory for future use.

In addition, the console features two heart rate workouts that change the resistance of the pedals to keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings while you exercise.

The console also features the new iFIT Interactive Workout System. The iFIT Interactive Workout System enables the console to accept iFIT cards containing workouts designed to help you achieve specific fitness goals. For example, lose unwanted pounds with the 8week Weight Loss workout. iFIT workouts control the resistance of the pedals while the voice of a personal trainer coaches and motivates you through your work-

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

re-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.

t to use stored 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 and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at 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.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching

and light exercise. A warm-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.

Cooling down— stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete 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 five workouts each week, if desired. Remember make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.

Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of
