How you begin your exercise will vary from person to person. If you have not exercised for a long period of
Aerobic fitness
Aerobic exercise is simply defined as any sustained activity that increase the supply of oxygen to your muscles via the blood pumped by your heart. With regular exercise, your cardiovascular system will become stronger and more efficient. Your recovery rate i.e, the time taken for your heart to reach its normal level, will also decrease.
Initially you may only be able to exercise for a few minutes each day. Do not hesitate to breath through your mouth should you need more oxygen.
Do not be discouraged if it takes longer than this to begin to feel lethargic, everyone is different and some will achieve their targets quicker than others, work at your own, comfortable pace and the results will come, the better your aerobic fitness the harder you will have to work to start in your “Target Zone”.
Warming up
A successful exercise program consists of three parts: Warm up. Aerobic exercise and cool down. Never start a training session without warning up and never finish one without cooling down correctly. Perform between five and ten minutes of stretching before starting your workout to prevent muscle strains, pulls and cramps.
Aerobic exercise session
Those new to exercise should exercise no more than every other day to start with. When you are comfortable with your routine, you can exercise for 6 days per week. Always take at least one day off per week.
Exercise in your Target Zone
To ensure that your heart is working in its exercise target zone, you need to be able to take your pulse, if you do not have a pulse monitor, you will need to locate the pulse in your carotid artery. This is situated in the side of the neck and can be felt by using the index and middle fingers.
Simply count the number of beats you feel in 10 seconds and then multiply by six to get your pulse rate. This should be taken before you start to exercise for easy reference.
People, who have a greater aerobic fitness, will have a lower resting pulse level and will also be able to exercise with a higher pulse level.
Target Zone
To determine your “Target Zone”, see table on page 16, if you are new to exercise and by definition unfit, refer to the middle column, if you exercise regularly and have good aerobic fitness, refer to the right column.

Before starting to exercise
time, or are severely overweight, you MUST start slowly and increase your time gradually, by perhaps only few minutes for each session per week.
Combine a carefully structured nutritious diet with a simple but effective exercise routine and this can help make you feel better, look better and will almost certainly enable you to enjoy life more.

Exercising Information
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.
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 flat even surface at least 3 feet from walls and furniture.
Exercise intensity
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.

Age
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.

Exercising Information
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 quickly and you breathe deeply. An aerobic exercise should be part of your entire exercise routine.
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.
Targeted Muscle Groups
The exercise routine that is performed on the Pro Fitness Aerobic Cycle will develop the upper and lower body muscle groups. These muscle groups are highlighted on the muscle chart below.

Each workout should include the following three parts:

leg.
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.
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 five workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
