EXERCISE WORKOUT

To start using the AVARI® Magnetic Elliptical simply stand on the foot pedals with the front of your shoes
close to the front edge of the pedal cap. Place your hands at a comfortable position on the handlebars.
Simply move your highest foot forward and follow the natural path of the machine.

Start on a load level that is comfortable to familiarize yourself with the machine. Once you are comfortable,
start adjusting the load level to achieve the workout desired.

Forward and Reverse

The AVARI® Magnetic Elliptical can be used in the forward and reverse direction to vary the muscles that
you work out. This will also vary your workout, helping you to stay motivated. To change directions, simply
slow the pedals down until they stop, and switch directions.

Load Level Adjustment

The load level of AVARI® Magnetic Elliptical can be changed at any time during your workout. Adjusting
your load level will allow you to increase or decrease your intensity level.

LOAD ADJUSTMENT

To increase the load, turn the TENSION KNOB(8) clockwise. To
decrease the load, turn the TENSION KNOB(8) counterclockwise.
There are eight levels for the load adjustment.

NOTE: The load will increase as you pedal faster.

STORAGE

The safety and integrity designed into the AVARI® Magnetic Elliptical can only be maintained when
the AVARI® Magnetic Elliptical is regularly examined for damage and wear. Special attention should
be given to the following:

MAINTENANCE

1. Adjust the TENSION KNOB(8) and verify that it functions properly and the resistance changes.

2. Verify that all nuts and bolts are present and properly tightened. Replace missing nuts and bolts.
Tighten loose nuts and bolts.

3. Verify that the WARNING LABEL(78) is in place and easy to read. Call Stamina Products immediately
at 1-800-375-7520 for a replacement WARNING LABEL(78) if it is missing or damaged.

4. It is the sole responsibility of the user/owner to ensure that regular maintenance is performed.

5. Worn or damaged components shall be replaced immediately or the AVARI® Magnetic Elliptical
removed from service until repair is made.

6. Only Stamina Products supplied components shall be used to maintain/repair the AVARI® Magnetic

Elliptical.

7. Keep your AVARI® Magnetic Elliptical clean by wiping it off with an absorbent cloth after use.

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 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.

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.

wrist pulse

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.

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.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

Target Heart Rate Zone Estimated by Age*

* 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

WARM-UP and COOL-DOWN

Warm-Up

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

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

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

Suggested Stretching Exercises

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.

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 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.

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.
