UNDERSTANDING THE READOUT INFORMATION

1. BODY FAT %

Your body fat percentage is simply the percentage of fat your body contains. If you are 150 pounds and
10% fat, it means that your body consists of 15 pounds fat and 135 pounds lean body mass (bone, muscle,
organ tissue, blood and everything else).

General Body Fat Percentage Categories

A certain amount of fat is essential to bodily
functions. Fat regulates body temperature,
cushions and insulates organs and tissues and
is the main form of the body’s energy storage.
The table describes body fat ranges and their

2. BMI (BODY MASS INDEX)

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.

BMI conclusions vary slightly according to gender.

Here is a general summary of weight-status

based on BMI.

OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS

D. PRESET FUNCTION VALUES

reset all functions to zero and skip to setting mode, refer to illustration 5. Press the MODE button to select
each function for preset target values. The Meter will cycle through the functions as follows and allow you
to set the function values.

Time (0:00 to 99:00) Distance (0.0 to 99.5 mile) Calories (0 to 999 Kcal) Target Pulse (72 to 240 bpm)

Use SET/RESET buttons to enter desired values of TIME,
DISTANCE, CALORIES, and PULSE. Press MODE button to

conrm the setting and move to next function for presetting.

Or, just press the MODE button to pass the setting of some
functions. Start to run the Meter functions by pedaling.

5.

NOTE:

1. You may preset values for several functions. The preset function values will start to count down once you

start pedaling. Preset values will only count down, they will not count up. When you complete one of the
preset functions, the Meter will remind you with an audible alarm for ten seconds. Press any button to
stop the audible alarm. Then the value of this completed function will start to count up, while the other
preset functions will continue to count down

2. The Meter will shut off automatically after 4 minutes of inactivity. All function values will be kept. Press

the MODE or RESET button and hold it down for three seconds to reset all functions to zero and skip
to setting mode.

E. PULSE RECOVERY FUNCTION (Input your personal data before using this function.)

The PULSE RECOVERY function measures how quickly you return to a resting pulse rate after exercising. You can
use this function to measure improvement as you get into shape. The Meter will monitor your pulse for 60 seconds
and calculate a Pulse Recovery value from F1 to F6. F1 is best. The readout should only be used as a comparison
between workouts. It can be used right after any aerobic exercise. Stop exercising before starting this function.
To start the pulse recovery function, grasp the Pulse Sensors on the Handlebar, one in each hand. Your pulse will be
displayed approximately ve (5) seconds after the heart symbol is displayed. Then press the RECOVERY button and
continue to grasp the Pulse Sensors correctly. During the pulse recovery function, only PULSE and TIME are working
and the display will be as shown in illustration 6. TIME will count down from 0:60 and the heart symbol will be blinking.
When the TIME reaches 0, the Meter will show your pulse recovery condition from F1.0 to F6.0. See illustration 7.
Press the RECOVERY button to exit the pulse recovery function and skip to Activity Mode.

NOTE:

1. You can quit the pulse recovery function at any time by pressing the RECOVERY button. The Meter will

skip to Activity Mode.

2. Once the pulse recovery function starts, the TIME will count down from 60 seconds to zero even if you

remove your hands from the Pulse Sensors. If no pulse signal is available, F6.0 will displayed as the pulse
recovery condition.

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.

Remember to follow these essentials:

Have your doctor review your training and diet programs.
Begin your training program 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 intensity, and

build up to higher intensity as you become more aerobically t.

If you feel dizzy or lightheaded you should slow down or stop exercising.

Initially you may only be able to exercise within your target zone for a few minutes; however, your aerobic
capacity will improve over the next six to eight weeks. It is important to pace yourself while you exercise
so you don't tire too quickly.

To determine if you are working out at the correct intensity, use a heart 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 an exercise program, work out at the low end of
your target heart rate zone. As your aerobic capacity improves, gradually increase the intensity of your
workout by increasing your heart rate.

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 ngers on your wrist and take a six second heartbeat count. Multiply
the results by ten to nd your heart rate. For example, if your six second

heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per minute. A six second
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.

* For cardiorespiratory training benefits, the American College of Sports Medicine recommends

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

22

WARM-UP and COOL-DOWN

Warm-Up

Warm up for two to ve minutes before strength training or aerobic exercising. Perform activities that

raise your heart rate and warm the working muscles. Activities may include brisk walking, jogging,
jumping jacks, jump rope, and running in place.

Stretching

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 injury. Stretches should be held
for 15 to 30 seconds. Do not bounce.

The purpose of warming up is to prepare your body for exercise and to minimize injuries.

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

Suggested Stretching Exercises

Lower Body Stretch

Place feet shoulder-width

apart and lean forward.
Keep this position for 30
seconds using the body as a
natural weight to stretch the
backs of the legs.

DO NOT BOUNCE!

When the pull on the back of
the legs lessens, gradually
try a lower position.

Floor Stretch

While sitting on the oor,

open the legs as wide as
possible. Stretch the upper
body toward the knee on the
right leg by using your arms
to pull your chest to your
thighs. Hold this stretch 10
to 30 seconds.

DO NOT BOUNCE!

Do this stretch 10 times.
Repeat the stretch with the
left leg.

Bent Torso Pulls

While sitting on the oor,

have legs apart, one leg
straight and one knee bent.
Pull the chest down to touch
the thigh on the leg that is
bent, and twist at the waist.
Hold this position at least 10
seconds. Repeat 10 times
on each side.

Bent Over Leg Stretch

Stand with feet shoulder-

width apart and lean forward

as illustrated. Using the

arms, gently pull the upper
body towards the right leg.
Let the head hang down.

DO NOT BOUNCE!

Hold the position a minimum
of 10 seconds. Repeat
pulling the upper body to
the left leg. Do this stretch
several times slowly.

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

Cool-Down

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.

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