point to the word “SPEED.”
The lower half of the display will show the elapsed
time, the distance you have pedaled, the approximate
number of calories you have burned, and your pedaling pace, changing from one mode to the next every
few seconds. One mode arrow will point to the word
“SCAN,” and a second mode arrow will point to the
words “TIME,” “DIST,” “CALORIE,” or
“STRIDES/MIN.”
To view one mode continuously in the lower half of
the display, press the console button repeatedly until
there is a mode arrow pointing to the word “TIME,”
“DIST,” “CALORIE,” or “STRIDES/MIN,” but no mode
arrow pointing to the word “SCAN.” To view all three
modes again, press the console button until there is a
mode arrow pointing to the word “SCAN.”

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
WARNING:Before beginning this
or any exercise program, consult your physician. This
als over the age of 35or individuals with preexisting health problems.
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition and
adequate rest are essential for successful results.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.
is especially important for individu-
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,
adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart
rate is near the highest number in your training zone
as you exercise.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure your heart
rate, stop exercising and
place two fingers on your
wrist as shown. Take a
six-second heartbeat
count, and multiply the
result by 10 to find your
heart rate. For example,
if your six-second heartbeat count is 13, your heart
rate is 130 beats per minute. (A six-second count is
used because your heart rate will drop rapidly when
you stop exercising.)
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the
nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers
above your age.

rate for fat burning; the middle number is the recommended heart rate for maximum fat burning; the high

WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three parts:
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. Aproper warm-up increases your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.
Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 minutes of exercising with your heart rate in your training
zone. Note: During the first few weeks of your exer
cise program, do not keep your heart rate in your
training zone for longer than 20 minutes.
A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. This
will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will
help to prevent post-exercise problems.
-
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three work-
outs each week, with at least one day of rest between
workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you
may complete up to five workouts each week if
desired. The key to success is make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
