How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you have been inactive for
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.
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.
25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 70
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.
Cardiovascular
performance
Before starting to exercise

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.
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.
The exercise routine that is performed on the Silver Medal Magnetic Bike 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:
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.
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.
Stand with your knees bent slightly and
slowly bend forward from your hips.
Allow your back and shoulders to relax
as you reach down toward your toes as
far as possible.
Hold for 15 counts, then relax
Repeat 3 times.
Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and back.
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole
of the opposite foot toward you and rest
it against the inner thigh of your
extended leg. Reach toward your toes
as far as possible.
Hold for 15 counts, then relax
Repeat 3 times for each
Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and groin.
Warming up and Cooling down exercises

With one leg in front of the other, reach
forward and place your hands against a wall.
Keep your back leg straight and your back
foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg,
lean forward and move your hips toward the
wall.
Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause
further stretching of the achilles
tendons, bend your back leg as well.
Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons and ankles.
With one hand against the wall for
balance, reach back and grasp one foot
with your other hand. Keeping your bent
knee pointing directly downward towards
the floor, gentle pull your
heel towards your buttock until you feel a gentle
stretch in the target area.
Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
Sit with the soles of your feet together
and your knees outward. Pull your feet
toward your groin area as far as possible.
Hold for 15 counts, relax.
Repeat 3 times.
Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
