The assembly of your Elliptical Trainer is now complete. As you try your exercises for the first time, you should adjust the tension to the correct level before you begin your full workout. Turning the adjustment knob allows you to change the tension level and vary the intensity of your workout as you exercise. To increase tension turn the tension knob to the right and to decrease tension turn the tension knob to the left.
Remember, your Elliptical Trainer has REVERSIBLE movement! Forward pedaling exercises your quadriceps (front thigh muscles), while backward pedaling targets your hamstrings (back thigh muscles). Take advantage of these facts to make your workout less fatiguing and more fun.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE YOU HAVE TIGHTENED ALL THE BOLTS AND NUTS WELL BEFORE BEGINNIG YOUR WORKOUT!

Failure to fit batteries correctly may result in damage to your Exercise Monitor, which is not covered by our guarantee. PLEASE DISPOSE OF OLD BATTERIES CAREFULLY
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 fitness 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 fitness, the harder you will have to work to stay in your target zone.
To maximize the benefits 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 find your target zone in the table below.
During the first 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 fingers on your wrist. Take a six-second heartbeat count and multiply the results by 10 to find 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.
Aerobic exercise improves the fitness of your lungs and heart - your body's most important muscle. Aerobic exercise fitness is promoted by any activity that uses your large muscles (arms, legs, or buttock, for example). Your heart beats guickly and you breathe deeply. An aerobic exercise should be part of your entire exercise routine
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.
The exercise routine that is performed on the Air Cross Trainer will develop the upper and lower body muscle groups. These muscle groups are highlighted on the muscle chart below.
G: Sartorius
I. Tibialie
H: Quadriceps
– N
A: Trapezius
Rack
1. A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. 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 first 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 flexibility of your muscles and will help to prevent post-exercise problems.
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 five workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
For a correct warm up, see the following basic stretching exercises. Move slowly as you stretch, never bounce.
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.
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.
500
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward 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.
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 floor, 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.
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible.
Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times.
Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
