Safety Precautions

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

THIS UNIT IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

CAUTION: Before starting any exercise program, it is recommended that you consult your physician. WARNING: Connect this unit to a properly grounded outlet only. DANGER: To reduce the risk of electric shock, always unplug the treadmill from the electrical outlet

immediately after using and before cleaning.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS ELLIPTICAL

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury to persons please read the following precautions:

1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of this elliptical are adequately informed of all warnings and precautions.

2. The use of an extension cord with this product is not recommended. If an extension cord is needed, use a short (less than 10 feet) heavy gauge (14 gauge or better) extension cord with a three prong (grounded) plug and receptacle.

3. Never leave the elliptical unattended when plugged in. Always unplug the power cord immediately after use and before cleaning the elliptical.

4. Never operate the elliptical if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped, damaged, or exposed to water.

5. Do not pull the elliptical by the power supply cord or use cord as a handle. Keep cord away from heated surfaces and open flames.

6. Fitness equipment must always be installed and used on a flat surface. Do not use outdoors or near water. Do not place the unit on a loose rug or uneven surface. It is recommended to use an equipment mat to prevent the unit from moving while it is being used, which could possibly scratch or damage the surface of your floor. It is recommended to have a minimum of 3 metres safe clearance on all sides of the elliptical while in use.

7. Keep the elliptical indoors, away from moisture and dust. Do not put the elliptical in a garage, covered patio or near water.

8. Do not operate the elliptical where aerosol products are used or where oxygen is being administered.

9. Do not insert any objects into any openings.

10.Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the elliptical regularly.

11.Keep children and pets away from this equipment at all times while exercising.

12.Handicapped individuals should have medical approval and close supervision when using this

elliptical.

13.Do not place hands or feet under the elliptical. Always keep hands and legs off of the elliptical when others are using it.

14.Always hold the handlebars when mounting, dismounting, or using the elliptical. Keep your back straight when using your elliptical; do not arch your back. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals to slowly come to a complete stop. The elliptical does not have a free wheel; the pedals will continue to move until the flywheel stops.

15.To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, then remove plug from outlet.

16.Use the elliptical only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use any attachments that are not recommended by the manufacturer.

17.User weight should not exceed 300lbs (136 kgs).

18.Never allow more than one person on the elliptical at once.

19.Warm up 5 to 10 minutes before each workout and cool down 5 to 10 minutes afterward. This allows your heart rate to gradually increase and decrease and will help prevent straining muscles.

20.Never hold your breath while exercising. Breathing should remain at a normal rate in conjunction with the level of exercise being performed. If dizziness, nausea, chest pains, or any other abnormal symptoms are experienced while using this equipment, STOP the workout at once. CONSULT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.

Training Guidelines

Exercise

Exercise is one of the most important factors in the overall health of an individual. Listed among its benefits are:

x Increased capacity for physical work (strength endurance) x Increased cardiovascular (heart and arteries/veins) and respiratory efficiency x Decreased risk of coronary heart disease x Changes in body metabolism, e.g. losing weight x Delaying the physiological effects of age x Physiological effects, e.g. reduction in stress, increase in self-confidence, etc.

Basic Components of Physical Fitness

There are four all encompassing components of physical fitness and we need to briefly define each and clarify its role.

Strength is the capacity of a muscle to exert a force against resistance. Strength contributes to

power and speed and is of great importance to a majority of sports people.

Muscular Endurance is the capacity to exert a force repeatedly over a period of time, e.g. it is

the capacity of your legs to carry you 10 Km without stopping.

Flexibility is the range of motion about a joint. Improving flexibility involves the stretching of

muscles and tendons to maintain or increase suppleness, and provides increased resistance to muscle injury or soreness.

Cardio-Respiratory Endurance is the most essential component of physical fitness. It is the

efficient functioning of the heart and lungs

Aerobic Fitness The largest amount of oxygen that you can use per minute during exercise is called your maximum oxygen uptake (MVo2). This is often referred to as your aerobic capa city.

The effort that you can exert over a prolonged period of time is limited by your ability to deliver oxygen to the working muscles. Regular vigorous exercise produces a training effect that can increase your aerobic capacity by as much as 20 to 30%. An increased MVO2 indicates an increased ability of the heart to pump blood, of the lungs to ventilate oxygen and of the muscles to take up oxygen.

Anaerobic Training

This means “without oxygen” and is the output of energy when the oxygen supply is insufficient to meet the body’s long term energy demands. (For example, 100 meter sprint).

The Training Threshold

This is the minimum level of exercise which is required to produce significant improvements in any physical fitness parameter.

Progression

As your become fitter, a higher intensity of exercise is required to create an overload and therefore provide continued improvement

Overload

This is where you exercise at a level above that which can be carried out comfortably. The intensity, duration and frequency of exercise should be above the training threshold and should be gradually increased as the body adapts to the increasing demands. As your fitness level improves, so the training threshold should be raised. Working through your program and gradually increasing the overload factor is important.

Page 22

Specificity

Different forms of exercise produce different results. The type of exercise that is carried out is specific both to the muscle groups being used and to the energy source involved. There is little transfer of the effects of exercise, i.e. from strength training to cardiovascular fitness. That is why it is important to have an exercise program tailored to your specific needs.

Reversibility

If you stop exercising or do not do your program often enough, you will lose the benefits you have gained. Regular workouts are the key to success.

Warm Up

Every exercise program should start with a warm up where the body is prepared for the effort to

come. It should be gentle and preferably use the muscles to be involved later.

Stretching should be included in both your warm up and cool down, and should be performed after

3-5 minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or callisthenic type exercise.

Warm Down or Cool Down

This involves a gradual decrease in the intensity of the exercise session. Following exercise, a large supply of blood remains in the working muscles. If it is not returned promptly o the central circulation, pooling of blood may occur in the muscles

Heart Rate

As you exercise, so the rate at which your heart beat also increases. This is often used as a measure of the required intensity of exercise. You need to exercise hard enough to condition your circulatory system, and increase your pulse rate, but not enough to strain your heart. Your initial level of fitness is important in developing an exercise program for you. If you are starting off, you can get a good training effect with a heart rate of 110-120 beats per minute(BPM). If you are fitter, you will need a higher threshold of stimulation. To begin with, you should exercise at a level that elevates your heart rate to about 65 to 70% of your maximum. If you find this is too easy, you may want to increase it, but it is better to lean on the conservative side. As a rule of thumb, the maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age. As you increase in age, so your heart, like other muscles, loses some of its efficiency. Some of its natural loss is won back as fitness

improves. The following table is a guide to those who are “starting fitness”.

Age 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 Target heart Rate 10 Second Count 23 22 22 21 20 19 19 18 18 Beats per Minute 138 132 132 126 120 114 114 108 108

Pulse Count

The pulse count(on your wrist or carotid artery in the neck, taken with two index fingers)is done for ten seconds, taken a few seconds after you stop exercising. This is for two reasons: (a) 10 seconds is long enough for accuracy, (b) the pulse count is to approximate your BPM rate at the time you are exercising. Since heart rate slows as you recover, a longer count isn’t as accurate. The target is not a magic number, but a general guide. If you’re above average fitness, you may work quite comfortably a little above that suggested for your age group. The following table is a guide to those who are keeping fit. Here we are working at about 80% of maximum.

Age 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 Target heart Rate 10 Second Count 26 26 25 24 23 22 22 21 20 Beats per Minute 156 156 150 144 138 132 132 126 120

Don’t push yourself too hard to reach the figures on this table. It can be very uncomfortable if you

Page 23

overdo it. Let it happen naturally as you work through your program. Remember, the target is a guide, not a rule, a little above or below is just fine. Two final comments:(1) don’t be concerned with day to day variations in your pulse rate, being under pressure or not enough sleep can affect it;(2) your pulse rate is a guide, don’t become a slave to it.

Endurance Circuit Training

Cardiovascular endurance, muscle, strength, flexibility and coordination are all necessary for maximum fitness. The principle behind circuit training is to give a person all the essentials at one time by going through your exercise program moving as fast as possible between each exercise. This increases the heart rate and sustains it, which improves the fitness level. Do not introduce this circuit training effect until you have reached an advanced program stage.

Body Building

Is often used synonymously with strength training The fundamental principal here is OVERLOAD. Here, the muscle works against greater loads than usual. This can be done by increasing the load you are working against.

Patronization

This is the term used to vary your exercise program for both physiological and psychological benefits. In your overall program, you should vary the workload, frequency and intensity. The body responds better to variety and so do you. In addition, when you feel yourself getting “stale’, bring in periods of lighter exercise to allow the body to recuperate and restore its reserves. You will enjoy your program more and feel better for it.

Muscle Soreness

For the first week or so, this may be the only indication you have that you are on an exercise program. This, of course, does depend on your overall fitness level. A confirmation that you are on the correct program is a very slight soreness in most major muscle groups. This is quite normal and will disappear in a matter of days. If you experience major discomfort, you may be on a program that is too advanced or you have increased your program too rapidly. If you experience PAIN during or after exercise, your body is telling your something. Stop exercising and consult your doctor.

What to Wear

Wear clothing that will not restrict your movement in any way while exercising. Clothes should be light enough to allow the body to cool. Excessive clothing that causes you to perspire more than you normally would while exercising, gives you no advantage. The extra weight you lose is body fluid and will be replaced with the next glass of water you drink. It is advisable to wear a pair of gym or running shoes or “sneakers”.

Breathing During Exercise

Do not hold your breath while exercising. Breathe normally as much as possible. Remember, breathing involves the intake and distribution of oxygen, which feeds the working muscles.

Rest Periods

Once you start your exercise program, you should continue through to the end. Do not break off halfway through and then restart at the same place later on without going through the warm-up stage again.

The rest period required between strength training exercises may vary from person to person. This will depend mostly on your level of fitness and the program you have chosen. Rest between exercises by all means, but do not allow this to exceed two minutes. Most people manage with half minute to one minute rest periods.

Page 24

Stretching

Stretching should be included in both your warm up and cool down, and should be performed after 35 minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or callisthenic type exercise. Movements should be performed slowly and smoothly, with no bouncing or jerking. Move into the stretch until slight tension, not pain, is felt in the muscle and hold for 20-30 seconds. Breathing should be slow, rhythmical and under control, making sure never to hold your breath.
