EXERCISING
Working out using an elliptical trainer is excellent aerobic exercise, the principle being that the exercise should be suitably light, but of long duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving the body ‘s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn improves endurance and fi tness. The ability of the body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent on its oxygen-uptake capacity. Aerobic exercise should above all be pleasant. You should perspire, but you should not get out of breath during the workout. You must, for example, be able to speak and not just pant while pedaling.
You should exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time, to reach a basic fi tness level. Maintaining this level requires a few exercise sessions each week. Once the basic condition has been reached, it is easily improved simply by increasing the number of exercise sessions. Exercise is always rewarding for weight loss, because it is the only way of increasing the energy spent by the body. This is why it is always worthwhile to combine regular exercise with a healthy diet. A dieter should exercise daily, at fi rst 30 minutes or less at a time, gradually increasing the daily workout time to one
hour.
You should start slowly at a low pedaling speed and low resistance, because for an overweight person strenuous exercise may subject the heart and circulatory system to excessive strain. As fitness improves, resistance and pedaling speed can be increased gradually. Exercise efficiency can be measured by monitoring the pulse. The pulse meter helps you monitor your pulse easily during exercise, and thus to ensure that the exercise is sufficiently effective but not over-strenuous. Start your workout with slow tempo and low resistance. Gradually increase tempo and resistance according to your own condition. Keep your head up and neck long in order to avoid stress on your neck, shoulders and back. Keep also your back straight. Make sure that your feet are centered on the foot pedals and that your hips, knees, ankles and toes are facing forward. Keep your body weight centered over your lower body regardless of whether you lean forward or stand upright. Stop your workout by gradually decreasing tempo and resistance.
Don’t forget to stretch afterwards. To strengthen cardiovascular system, maintain low resistance but high tempo. Exercising with higher resistance and slow tempo strengthens correspondingly your back
and hips.
HEART RATE
No matter what your goal, you’ll get the best results by training at the right level of effort, and the best measure is your own heart rate.
The C45 meter has a heart rate receiver compatible with Polar equipment, so you can also use Polar uncoded heart rate transmitter belts for heart rate measurement.
NOTE! If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please
consult a physician before using a heart rate transmitter belt.
The most reliable heart rate measurement is achieved with a telemetric device, in which the electrodes of the transmitter fastened to the chest transmit the pulses from the heart to the console by means of an electromagnetic field. If you want to measure your heart rate this way during your workout, moisten the grooved electrodes on the transmitter belt with saliva or water. Fasten the transmitter just below the chest with the elastic belt, firmly enough so that the electrodes remain in contact with the skin while exercising, but not so tight that normal breathing is prevented. If you wear the transmitter and belt over a light shirt, moisten the shirt slightly at the points where the electrodes touch the shirt. The transmitter automatically transmits the heart rate reading to the console up to a distance of about 1 m.
If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the heart-
GB
5
OWNER'S MANUAL • C45
rate reading will not appear on the display. If the electrodes are dry, they must be moistened again. Allow the electrodes warm up properly to ensure accurate heart rate measurement. If there are several telemetric heart rate measurement devices next to each other, the distance between them should be at least 1.5 m. Similarly, if there is only one receiver and several transmitters in use, only one person with a transmitter should be within transmission range. the transmitter is switched to an active state only when it is being used for measurement. sweat and other moisture can, however, keep the transmitter in an active state and waste battery energy. therefore it is important to dry the electrodes carefully after use.
When selecting training attire, please note that some fibers used in clothes (e.g. polyester, polyamide) create static electricity, which may prevent reliable heart rate measurement. Please note that a mobile phone, television and other electrical appliances form an electromagnetic field around them, which will cause problems in heart rate measurement.
HAND GRIp pULSE MEASUREMENT
(HGp-VERSION)
Pulse is measured by sensors in the handlebars. Pulse is measured when the user of C45 is touching both sensors simultaneously. Reliable pulse measurement requires that the skin is constantly touching the sensors and that the skin is slightly moist. Too dry or too moist skin weakens the reliability of hand pulse measurement.
Perfect for improving and maintaining fitness. Even reasonable effort develops the heart and lungs effectively, training for a minimum of 30 minutes at
least three TIMEs a week. To improve your condition still further, increase either frequency or effort, but not both at the same time!

HEART RATE IN TRAINING
First find your maximum heart rate i.e. where the rate doesn’t increase with added effort. If you don’t know your maximum heart rate, please use the following formula as a guide:
220 - AGE
The formula gives an average value, the maximum varies from person to person. The maximum heart­rate diminishes on average by one point per year. If you belong to a risk group, ask a doctor to measure your maximum heart rate for you.
We have defined three different heart-rate zones to help you with targeted training.
BEGINNER
50-60 % of maximum heart-rate
Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents and those who haven’t exercised for a long
TIME.
Three sessions a week of at least a half-hour each is recommended. Regular exercise considerably improves beginners’ respiratory and circulatory performance and you will quickly feel your improvement.

FITNESS TEST
The meter uses a multi-step fitness test. The test begins at a low level of effort, which increases steadily in accordance with the selected test type. A multi-step test is a safe and reliable, submaximal means of measuring a person’s physical fitness level. The test continues until the test subject has achieved his or her individual target heart rate (85% of maximum heart rate). The test requires the use of a heart rate belt: the meter monitors changes in the heart rate throughout the test, using the data to calculate an estimate of the tested person’s maximum oxygen uptake capacity. The maximum oxygen uptake capacity is the best measure of a person’s physical fitness level. After the test, the meter gives versatile information on your fitness level: a description and a numerical value (ml/kg/ min).
IMpORTANT! To save a training session you will need
to select a username.
pREpARING FOR THE TEST
1. Make sure that the data associated with your
username is updated – the meter uses the user data
USING SAVED pROGRAMS
1. Select OWN TRAINING.
2. Select a training session from the list.
3. Select the desired execution method: A) Replay = repeat a previously saved exercise. B) Edit = edit the duration of a previously saved
exercise before you start.
C) Race = compete against a previously saved
workout.
NOTE! You can only use programme profiles
created in the Manual function. These profiles show effort as a constant torque (Nm).
4. Confirm your selection by pressing the selection
dial.
A) Replay = start pedaling to begin the exercise.
You can adjust the effort level with the selection dial.
B) Edit = select the duration of the exercise with
the selection dial (set the time to 10-180 minutes). Start pedaling to begin the exercise. You can adjust the effort level with the selection dial.
C) Race = Using the selection dial, select the race
mode (time: the distance you can pedal in a given time; or distance: how fast you can cover a given distance) and confirm your selection using the selection dial. The display shows a previously saved program. Start pedalling to begin the race. The dash line on the display shows whether you are ahead or behind the benchmark training session, which is the most recently saved training session using this program. The distance to the previously saved session is also displayed: the previously saved training session is shown with a light vertical dash line, and your race effort is shown with a dark vertical dash line.
5. To stop the training session, press the BACK/STOP
button. You can then stop the session by selecting EXIT, save the session to the memory by selecting SAVE AND EXIT or continue your training session by selecting CONTINUE.
as a basis for the fitness test.
2. Select FITNESS TEST.
3. Using the selection dial, select the most suitable
fitness category for you:
A) Inactive = no regular exercise, poor physical
condition
B) Active = regular exercise, average or good
physical condition
C) Athletic = active training, good or excellent
physical condition
4. The display shows the appropriate test type for
each fitness category:
A) Step time = duration of different effort levels in
the test
B) First step = initial effort level C) Step power = effort level of steps (in watts), the
test features several steps
5. Confirm your selection by pressing the selection
dial.
6. If necessary, you can adjust your target heart rate
value using the selection dial. Confirm your settings using the selection dial.
7. The display informs you that you can stop the test
once you reach the target heart rate for the test. Start the test by pressing the selection dial.
pERFORMING THE TEST
1. The display shows the selected test step type.
Start pedaling to begin the test. A red diagram that updates as you progress in the test represents your heart rate. A discontinuous line in red indicates your target heart rate.
2. Once the target heart rate level has been
achieved, the meter gives an audio signal and displays a message. We recommend that you end the test here, unless you are relatively fit. If you have set your target heart rate correctly (that is, if you have calculated your maximum heart rate accurately enough), continuing the test beyond this point will not increase the accuracy of the result. If you overestimate your maximum heart rate, your

fitness level will be overestimated. Similarly, if you underestimate your maximum heart rate, your fitness level will be underestimated.
3. To stop the test once you reach the target heart
rate level, press the BACK/STOP button or stop pedaling. The meter will now switch to the test result display:
A) Aerobic fitness = an estimate of your fitness
level in your regular effort zone, which gives the best indication of the state of your health-related fitness.
B) MET value = a reading that shows the multiple
of your maximum oxygen uptake at complete rest.
C) ml/kg/min = a reading that tells how many
millilitres of oxygen per kilogram of body weight per minute your body consumes.
D) l/min = a reading that tells your oxygen uptake
in litres per minute. Unlike the above values, l/min does not take account of the user’s body weight.
E) Wmax = an estimate of your maximal exercise
power, measured in watts.
F) W/kg = the ratio of your maximal exercise
power to your weight.
