cially important for individuals over the age of 35 or
individuals with pre-existing health problems.

EXERCISEINTENSITY

To maximize the benefits of exercising, it isimportantto
exercise with the proper intensity.The proper intensity
level can be found by usingyour heart rate as a gu!de.

Foreffectiveaerobic exercise,your heart rote should be

maintained at a levelbetween70% and 8,5%of your
maximum heart rate as you exercise.This isknown as

your training zone. Youcan find your training zone in
the table below.Training zones are listedfor beth uncon-
ditioned and conditioned persons according to age.

WORKOUT GUIDEUNES

Eachworkout shouldconsistof three basic pan: a
worm-up, 20 to 30 minutesof training zone exercise,

and a cool-down. Warming up preparesthe body for
exercise by increasing circulation,deliveringmore oxy-

gen to the musclesand raisingthe body temperature.
Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutesof stretching
and lightexercise to worm up. Then, increasethe intensi-

ty of your exercise to raise your heart rate toyour train-
ing zone for 20 to 30 minutes.Breathe regularlyand

deeply as you exercise--never holdyour breath. Finish
each workout with 5 to 10 minutesof stretchingto cool

down. This wiU increasethe flexibilityof the muscles,and

reclucesorenessand otherpost-exerciseproblems.

To maintain or improveyour condition,complete three
workoutseach week, with at least one day of rest

between workouts.After a few monthsof regular exer-
cise,you may completeup to five workouts each week, if
desired.The key to successis CONSISTENCY.
