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
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
Please remember these essentials:
• Have your doctor review your training and diet programme to advise you of a workout routine you should
• Begin your training programme 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.
To maximize the benefits of exercising, it is important to exercise with 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 programme, 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 exercises.
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 heart rate is 140 beats per minute.
(A six-second 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

Aerobic exercise improves the fitness of your lungs and heart - your body’s most important muscle. Aerobic
The exercise routine that is performed on the training bench will develop the core muscle groups.These
muscle groups are highlighted on the muscle chart below.
exercise fitness is promoted by any activity that uses your large muscles (arms, legs or buttocks, for example).
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 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.

Exercise Information

bent forward from your hips. Allow your back

Each workout should include the following three parts:
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 programme, 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 to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your
everyday life.
