A certain amount of fat is essential to bodily
functions. Fat regulates body temperature,
cushions and insulate s organ s a nd tissues and is
the main form of the body's energy storage. The
table describes body fat ranges and their
associated categories.

General Body Fat Percentage Categories

4. BODY TYPE

There are 9 BODY TYPES divided according to the
FAT % calculated. Refer to the chart to determine what
body type you are.
When you know which type you are and diet a nd exercise
correctly for that type, you will ma ke much better progress.

Body Mass Index is a height/weight formula used by health and weight professionals around the world to
assess a person's body weight. From your body mass index number you can see if you are underweight,
normal weight, overweight or obese.

2. BMI (BODY MASS INDEX)

Under 20 (19 f or women)
Between 20 and 24.99
Between 25 and 29.99
Between 30 and 34.99
Between 35 and 39.99
40 and above

Underweight

Normal W eight

Overweight
Obese Class 1
Obese Class 2

Extreme Obesity

BMI conclusions vary slightly according to gender .
Here is a general summary of weight-status ba sed
on BMI.

3. BMR (BODY MET ABOLISM RATE)

Ba sal Metabolic Rate is the rate at which the body burns calories to maintain normal body functions while at
rest. BMR is the largest factor in determining overall metabolic rate and how many calories you need to
maintain, lose or gain weight.
To loss weight, you should try to eat less calories then basal caloric rate as BMR shown. In order to lose
weight, calories should not be your only concern. Exercise is vital, too.

How you begin your exercise progra m depends on your physical condition. If you have been inactive f or
several years, or are severely overweight, you must start slowly and increase your time on the

EMR

ELLIPTICAL gradually: 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 e ight weeks. Don't be discouraged if it ta kes longer . It's i mportant 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 progra m slowly with realistic goals that have been set by you and your doctor.
Monitor your pulse frequently. Establish your target heart rate base on your age and condition.

Set up your

EMR ELLIPTICAL a flat, even surface at least 3 feet from walls and furniture.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

21

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 70% 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. Target zones are listed
for both unconditioned and conditioned persons according to age.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

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 pla ce two
fingers on your wrist. Take a six­second heartbeat count and multiply
the results by 10 to find your heart
rate. For example, 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.

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. Activitie s may include brisk walking, jogging, jumping ja cks, 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 always to 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 ea ch exercise se ssion. A proper cool-down slowly lowers your he art rate and allows blood to
return to the heart. Y our cool-down should include the stretche s listed above a nd should be completed after
each strength-training session.

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