V. EXERCISE GUIDE
PLEASE NOTE:
Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician. This is important for individuals over
the age of 45 or with pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensors are not medical devices. Various factors, including the user’s movement, may
affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors are intended only as an exercise aid in
determining heart rate trends in general.
Exercising is great way to control your weight, improve your fitness and reduce the effect of aging and
stress. The key to a healthy lifestyle is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday
life.
The condition of your heart and lungs and how efficient they are in delivering oxygen via your blood to
your muscles is an important factor to your fitness. Your muscles use this oxygen to provide enough
energy for daily activity. This is called aerobic activity. When you are fit, your heart will not have to work
so hard. It will pump a lot fewer times per minute, reducing the strain on your heart.
So as you can see, the fitter you are, the healthier and greater you will feel.
WARM UP
Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and some light exercises. A proper warm-up
increases your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise. Ease into your
exercise.
After warming up, increase the intensity to your desired exercise program. Be sure to maintain your
intensity for maximum performance. Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise.

COOL DOWN
Finish each workout with a light jog or walk for at least 1 minute. Then complete 5 to 10 minutes of
stretching to cool down. This will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-
exercise problems.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
This is how your pulse should behave during general fitness exercise. Remember to warm up and
cool down for a few minutes.
