FITNESS
Many things contribute to fitness and well being but the most important factor is the condition of your
heart and lungs and how efficient they are in delivering oxygen via your blood to your muscles.
Your muscles use this oxygen to provide enough energy for daily activity.
This is called aerobic activity (with oxygen).
When you are fit your heart and lungs work well and efficiently.
This means your heart will not have to work so hard. It will pump a lot fewer times per minute so
reducing the wear and tear on your heart.
This in turn reduces the chances of your suffering heart disease.
Fitness also helps you control your weight and reduces the effects of aging and stress.
You come across the need for fitness continually in everyday life.
When you are fit you can walk briskly up hills and stairs without being too out of breath once at the
top you recover quickly.
As you can see there are great advantages in being fit.
HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR FITNESS
Like any muscle in your body your heart can be strengthened by systematic physical exercise which
requires an increased blood flow and heart rate.
You can measure your heart rate by taking a pulse reading.
Your heart of pulse rate corresponds directly to your exertion level and exercise efficiency.
To improve your fitness in a safe and effective way you need to exercise at a high enough level to
improve your aerobic fitness.
The area between these 2 levels is called the target zone.
It is important to exercise at the right intensity to stay within this zone.
For the best results you should exercise within the target zone and gradually increase the duration.
Ideally you should aim to exercise (within zone) for at least 15-20 minutes continuously,
3-4 times per week.
CAUTION
DO NOT TRY TO DO TOO MUCH TO QUICKLY START GRADUALLY AND BUILD UP.
IF YOU BECOME ILL, IF YOU ARE UNDER DOCTOR CARE, OR OVER 35-40 AND NOT CURRENTLY
TAKING REGULAR EXERCISE THEN WE WOULD ADVISE YOU NOT TO START TO EXERCISE
WITHOUT CONSULTING YOUR DOCTOR.

TARGET ZONE
THIS IS HOW YOUR PULSE SHOULD BEHAVE DURING GENERAL FITNESS EXERCISE.
REMEMBER TO WARM UP AND COOL DOWN FOR A FEW MINUTES.
FIND YOUR OWN EXERCISE PULSE RATE RANGE BY
MOVING UP THE VERTICAL LINE FOR YOUR AGE.
Example: Age 40, the vertical line meets the 70% level at about 128 and the
85% level at about 154, pulse rate should remain between these values.
Use this graph to determine your personal target zone.

HOW TO MONITOR YOUR HEART RATE DURING EXERCISE
,
,
Now that you know where your training zone is, you ll I have to monitor yourself to be sure you re in it.
,,
,
Here s a simple rule, if you can t hold a conversation without gasping for breath you re probably above
your training zone.
,
,
To know precisely where you re working - making sure you re getting all the benefits We recommend you check your heart rate periodically throughout your workout.
You can use the electronic pulse monitor which will count and display your heart rate for you.
CONTROL YOUR PULSE RATE TO KEEP WITHIN ZONE
How hard you exercise affects your pulse rate, it is determined by two things:
1. Rate: How fast you exercise.
e.g. Speed you cycle, run or step.
2
THE PULSE RATE RULES
If your pulse rate is too low exercise faster or increase load.
If your pulse rate is too high exercise slower or decrease load.
If your pulse rate goes up towards the end of your exercise, you are trying to exercise for too long,
shorten the time.
If your pulse rate does not quickly return to normal after exercise (5-10 minutes) you are not giving
your body chance to recover, reduce how often you exercise.
REMEMBER - GENERAL FITNESS IS BEST IMPROVED BY INCREASING HOW LONG
YOU EXERCISE RATHER THAN BY HOW HARD.
. Load: The resistance against which you exercise.
e.g. Tension you apply on cycle, step or run up hill.

HOW LONG TO EXERCISE?
To qualify as a true aerobic exercise with all the benefits we're mentioned, you must maintain your
heart rate within your training zone for at least 12 uninterrupted minutes.
If you exercise longer than 60 minutes the benefits are reduced and the risk of injury is increased.
If you're just starting out on a new exercise program we'recommend you stay at the 12 minute minimum
for at least a week. When you feel you're ready to go longer, increase your time no more than 10%
a week. Don't push yourself too hard.
You should never feel exhausted during or following exercise.
TEST YOUR FITNESS LEVEL AND CHECK YOUR PROGRESS
You can use your computer to control your exercise intensity and to monitor your progress.
The time it takes for your pulse to return to normal, after exercise, is an indicator of your fitness level.
During the first minute of your cool-down phase you will experience a drop in your pulse rate.
The bigger the drop in that minute -- the fitter you are.
TO CHECK YOUR PROGRESS:
1. Monitor your pulse rate the moment you end the aerobic phase of your workout and note your pulse rate.
2. Begin slowing down for the cool down phase.
3. After 60 seconds note the rate again.
The bigger the drop in that minute-the fitter you are.
To check your progress repeat this test every few weeks using the same duration and exercise intensity
each time.
Keep a record of the results to help you monitor your progress.
