CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you have been inactive for
several years or are severely overweight, start slowly and increase your workout time gradually. Increase

your workout intensity gradually by monitoring your heart rate while you exercise.

Initially you may only be able to exercise within your target zone f or a few minutes; however, your aerobic
ca pa city will i mprove over the next six to eight week s. It is important to pace yourself while you exercise so
you don't tire too quickly.

Measure your heart rate periodically during your workout by stopping the
exercise but continuing to move your legs or walk around. Place two or three
fingers on your wrist and ta ke a six second heartbe at count. Multiply the results
by ten to find your heart rate. For exa mple, if your six se cond heartbeat count
is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per minute. A six second count is used
because your heart rate will drop ra pidly when you stop exercising. Adjust the
intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is at the proper level.

wrist pulse

Have your doctor review your training and diet programs.
Begin your training progra m slowly with realistic goals that have been set by you and your physician.
Warm up before you exercise and cool down after you work out.
Take your pulse periodically during your workout and strive to stay within a range of 60% (lower
intensity) to 90% (higher intensity) of your maximum heart rate zone. Start at the lower inten sity, and
build up to higher intensity as you become more aerobically fit.
If you feel dizzy or lightheaded you should slow down or stop exercising.

Target Heart Rate Zone Estimated by Age*

Remember to follow these e ssentials:

To determine if you are working out at the correct intensity, use a he art rate monitor or use the table below .
For effective aerobic exercise, your heart rate should be maintained at a level between 60% and 90% of
your maximum heart rate. If just starting a n exercise program, work out at the low end of your target heart
rate zone. As your a erobic ca pa city improves, gradually incre a se the intensity of your workout by increa sing
your heart rate.

For cardiorespiratory training benefits, the American College of Sports Medicine re commends working
out within a heart rate range of 55% to 90% of maximum heart rate. To predict the maximum heart
rate, the following formula was used: 220 - Age = predicted maximum heart rate

WARM-UP and COOL-DOWN

Warm-Up The purpose of warming up is to prepare your body f or exercise and to mini mize injuries. W arm

up for two to five minutes before strength training or aerobic exercising. Perform activities that raise your
heart rate and warm the working muscle s. Activities may include brisk walking, jogging, jumping ja ck s, jump
rope, and running in place

Stretching Stretching while your muscles are warm after a proper warm-up and again after your strength

or aerobic training session is very important. Muscles stretch more easily at these times because of their
elevated temperature, which greatly reduces the risk of in jury . Stretches should be held for 15 to 30 seconds.
Do not bounce.

Suggested Stretching Exercise s

Remember to always check with your physician before starting any exercise program.

Cool-Down The purpose of cooling down is to return the body to its normal, or near normal, resting state

at the end of each exercise session. A proper cool-down slowly lowers your heart rate and allows blood to
return to the heart. Your cool-down should include the stretches listed above and should be completed after
each strength training session.

as illustrated. Using the
arms, gently pull the upper
body towards the right leg.

of 10 seconds. Repeat
