Exercise Information
Before starting
Tailor your exercise program according to your physical condition. If you have been inactive for several years, or are overweight, you must start slowly and increase your time on the equipment; a few minutes per workout increase is advisable.
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.
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.
• Monitor your pulse frequently. Establish your target heart rate based on your age and condition.
• Set up your equipment on a flat even surface with adequate training area, as prescribed in this manual.
Exercise intensity
ts of exercising, it is important to exercise with the proper intensity. The 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.
200
180
85% to Max

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
ngers on your wrist. Take a six-second heartbeat
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 required level.

Aerobic Exercise
Aerobic exercise improves the ssent of your lungs and heart - your body’s most important muscle. Aerobic exercise is promoted by any activity that uses your large muscles (arms, legs, or buttock, for example).
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. Weight training helps tone, build and strengthen muscle. If you are working above your target zone, you may want to do a lower number of reps.
Targeted Muscle Groups
The exercise routine that is performed on the Cross Trainer will develop the upper and lower body muscle groups. These muscle groups are highlighted on the muscle chart below.

Exercise Information
Warming up and Cooling down
Each workout should include the following three parts:
1. A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of 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 zone for longer than 20 minutes.)
3. exibility of your muscles and will help
to reduce post-exercise muscle soreness.
Exercise Frequency
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between
