TARGET HRC HEART RATE CONTROLLED

HRC programs work by automatically adjusting the resistance
to keep you working out at your target heart rate. To do this the
console will need your pulse reading throughout the exercise,
which it gets from you placing both hands on the pulse sensors.

If your heart rate is too high, the resistance is decreased.

If your heart rate is too low, the resistance is increased.

This console features 4 heart rate control programs:

55% - targeted to operate at 55% of your maximum heart
rate.

75% - targeted to operate at 75% of your maximum heart
rate.

90% - targeted to operate at 90% of your maximum heart
rate.

Target - you can set your own target heart rate.

tracking your progress over time. When you have completed your
workout:

Press the “Fitness Test” button.

Place both hands on the hand pulse sensors.

Time will count down from 1:00 to 0:00.

A result will be displayed between F1 and F6.

F1 is the best and means your heart rate recovers quickly
after exercise - you are very t.

F6 is the worst and means your heart rate recovers slowly
after exercsie - you are unt.

BODY FAT AND BMI

This feature will measure your body fat % and perform a BMI
(Body Mass Index) calculation. It uses the User Data already pre­set in U1 - U9 in the calculations. From the “Main Menu”:

Press the “Body Fat” button.

Place both hands on the hand pulse sensors.

The display will show --------- for 8 seconds.

It will then show your body fat %, related symbol and BMI
(please see below to see what the results indicate).

NOTE: The body fat % shown is for comparison only, and
should not to be used for medical purposes.

Monitoring your heart rate

This cycle is tted with 2 hand pulse sensors. To obtain a pulse reading
you must have both your left and right hands on the sensors at the
same time. Do not grip the hand sensors too tight and allow the
computer a few seconds to display the reading.

NOTE: Some people may not be able to obtain an accurate hand
pulse reading due to variations in circulation.

Adjusting the resistance

This cycle features a speed independent braking (resistance)
system. The resistance is controlled by a magnet, which is
moved closer or further away from the ywheel - the closer the
magnet is to the ywheel the higher the resistance. The magnet
is computer controlled. To adjust, simply scroll the wheel on the
console. The resistance levels go from 1 = easy to 16 = hard.

•

Adjusting the handlebars

The handlebars can be adjusted to match your individual requirements;

Loosen the T-bar bolt.

Tilt the handlebars into your desired position.

Tighten the T-bar bolt.

Adjusting the seat height

Loosen the hand wheel and pull the plunger.

Adjust the seat up or down to your required height - to line it up
correctly, make sure the number and line is visible at the top of
the seat post mounting tube - as shown in the diagram.

Let go of the plunger and re-tighten the hand wheel - make sure
it is screwed tightly.

NOTE: Do not pull the seat out too far - the maximum is indicated

Exercising With Your Cycle

ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE
UNDERTAKING A NEW EXERCISE REGIME. IF YOU
EXPERIENCE NAUSEA, DIZZINESS OR OTHER
ABNORMAL SYMPTOMS DURING EXERCISE, STOP
AT ONCE AND CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.

STARTING YOUR WORKOUT

Begin and end each workout with a Warm Up / Cool Down
session - a few minutes of stretching to help prevent
strains, pulls and cramps.

CORRECT CYCLING FORM

Sit on the cycle, with your feet on the pedals and
inside the pedal straps.

Ensure that the seat height is adjusted correctly

- you should be stable and balanced whilst on the
saddle. The basic rule for getting the seat height
right is that as the pedal reaches its lowest point,
the leg is almost straight.

Try to ensure that your back is straight whilst
exercising, especially for long periods.

HOW LONG SHOULD I EXERCISE FOR?

That really depends on your current level of tness. If
you’re just starting out on a new exercise program, you
should start gradually and build up - do not try to do too
much too quickly. 30 minutes, 3 times a week should be
enough. Don’t push yourself too hard - you should never
feel overly exhausted during or following exercise.

HEART RATE TRAINING

To get the most out of your new piece of tness
equipment and see the best results from your training you
should exercise at the right level of eort, and that means
listening to your heart! Working out to a target heart rate
means you can direct your workout to achieve dierent
goals:

Good health - For those wishing to improve quality of life
and general well being, your sessions will need to be done
at an intensity of between 50 - 60% of your estimated
maximum heart rate, should last about 30 minutes and
can be done on most days of the week.

Weight loss - To see a signicant reduction in body fat,
your sessions must be a little more intense - between
60 - 70% of your estimated maximum heart rate. These
sessions can also be performed on most days of the week
for up to 30 minutes.

•

•

•

Improving tness levels - These sessions should be
performed at 70 - 80% of your estimated maximum heart
rate and can also involve bouts of interval training that
would have your heart rate peaking for short times near
your maximum heart rate level. These are intense sessions
and will require at least a 48 hour rest between sessions.

CALCULATING YOUR TARGET HEART RATE

First, you need to nd your estimated maximum heart rate
using the formula “220 minus your age in ve years”. So, if
you are 35 years old your estimated maximum heart rate
is: 220 - 35 = 185 beats per minutes (BPM)

Next, to calculate your target heart rate, simply multiply
your estimated maximum heart rate ( 185 BPM ) by the
applicable percentage. So, if your goal is better heart:

185 x 60% = 111 BPM

NOTE: The important issue to remember with all
estimated calculations is that they are just estimates

- if you don’t feel comfortable exercising at your target
then reduce it to a level you are comfortable with. Heart
rate training requires you to monitor your heart rate
throughout the workout. For this we recommend using
a chest strap (if you machine has a wireless receiver ) or
a heart rate monitor. For more information please visit
www.yorktness.com or get in touch using the CONTACT
US details.
