WORKOUTGUIDELINES
GoodHealthisanExerciseinCommonSense
Inthestudytitled,“TheSurgeonGeneral’sCall‐To‐ActionToPreventandDecreaseOverweightandObesity”,thesurgeongeneralindicates
that61%ofAmericanadultsareeitheroverweightorobese.Thestudyindicatesthatbeingoverweightincreasestheriskofhealthproblems,
suchasheartdisease,certaintypesofcancer,aswellasType‐2diabetesamongotherafflictions.
HeartRateisanImportantKeytoYourExercise
TheSurgeonGeneralalsoreleasedareportonphysicalactivityandhealth.Thisreportdictatesthatexerciseandfitnessarebeneficialfora
person’shealthandreiteratedtheneedforexerciseasakeycomponentfordiseasepreventionandhealthierliving.
Thebestwaytodetermineexerciseintensityistomonitoryourpulserate.Yourheartratecaneasilybedeterminedbycountingthenumber
ofheartbeatsperminuteatthechest,wristorthecarotidarteryonyourneck.Itisdifficulthowevertocountyourownpulsewhileexercising
asitisnotpossibletocountfastenoughtoaccuratelytrackthenumberofbeatsperminute.ThisDiamondbackFitnessunitisequippedwitha
setoftouchheartratesensors.

NOTE:Ifaninconsistentheartrateisdisplayedwhileusingthehandpulsesensors: 
Ensurethepalmsofbothhandsaretouchingthecontactareasofthetouchheartratesensors.
Maintainconstantandevenpressureonthegrips.Donotclutchthesensorstightly.
Trytokeepbothhandsstillwhilegripingthetouchheartratesensor.

UsingtheWirelessHeartRateReceiver
Ingeneral,awirelessheartratecheststrapisthemostaccurateandconvenientmethodofdetectingandmonitoringaheartratesignalandis
aconsiderableupgradefromthetouchtypeheartratesensors.Occasionally,certainfactorscannegativelyaffecttheaccuratetransmissionof
theheartratesignal.WiFinetworks,cordlesstelephonesandlargeelectricalappliancesmaydegradeorcorruptthesignalsothattherate
appearserraticorimpossiblyhigh.Theonlyremedyforsuchasymptomistoisolatetheunitfrompotentialdisturbances.Additionally,a
person’sbodychemistryorlackofperspirationcanpreventthecheststrapfromprovidingastrongoraccurateheartratesignal
Awirelesstelemetryheartratereceivingsystemisonefeaturefoundonthisunit.Inorderfortheconsoletodetectanddisplayyourheart
ratewirelessly,four(4)conditionsmustbepresent:
Acompatibleheartratecheststraptransmitter(notincluded)mustbefunctioningandworn.Forproperfunctionofthecheststrap,
pleaserefertothemanufacturer’sinstructions.Non‐codedtransmitterssuchasthePolarmodelT31andT34areexamplesof
wirelesscheststrapsknowntobecompatiblewiththisunit.
Theunitmustbepoweredon.
Aworkoutprogrammustberunning.
Theuseriswithinthree(3)feetoftheconsole.
CalculatedMaximumHeartRate&TargetTrainingZone
Yourtargetheartratedependsprimarilyuponyourage.Itisimportanttoworkwithina
safeandproductivezone,foriftheexerciseintensityistoolowortoohigh,onlymodest
gainswillbemadeinstrengthandcardio‐vascularfitness.Aworkoutataverylowintensity
willnotoffermaximumbenefits.Conversely,iftheworkoutintensityistoohigh,injuryor
fatiguemayslowtheprogressionofyourexercisegoalsasthebodyattemptstorecover.
Note: Itismosteffectivetotrainataheartratebetween60%and85%ofyour
maximumheartrate.Maximumheartrateiscalculatedasapercentage
ofyourmaximumheartrate(estimatedas220BPMminusyourage).
Tocalculateyourmaximumheartrateandfindtheappropriatetargettrainingzone,usethe
followingformulas.Thefollowingestimationwouldberelevantfora35year‐olduser:
220–35=185BPM(220–Age=CalculatedMaximumHeartRateinBeats‐per‐minute/BPM)
0.60x185=111BPM(60%of185BPM[CalculatedMaximumHeartRate]=111BPM)
0.85x185=157BPM(85%of185BPM[CalculatedMaximumHeartRate]=157BPM)

WORKOUTQUALITYANDQUANTITY
Itisrecommendedthatyouaccumulateatleastthirty(30)minutesofphysicalactivitymostdaysoftheweek.TheAmericanCollegeofSports
Medicinemakesthefollowingrecommendationsforthequantityandqualityoftrainingfordevelopingandmaintainingcardio‐respiratory
fitnessinhealthyadults:
Anactivitythatuseslargemusclegroups,maintainedcontinuously,andisrhythmicalandaerobicinnature.
Duration:20to60minutesofcontinuousaerobicactivity,includingawarm‐upandcool‐downperiodforeachsession.
Frequency:3to5timesperweek.
Intensity: 60%to85%ofmaximumheartrate.
Inadditiontoaerobicexercise,strengthtrainingofmoderateintensitytwiceperweekisrecommended.Womenespeciallymaybenefitfrom
weight‐bearingexercises.Selectactivitiesyouenjoyandcanfitintodailylife.HavingDiamondbackFitnessequipmentathomeoffersyouthe
opportunitytoworkoutwithoutgoingtothegym.
GetaSmartStartonExercising
Anyoneovertheageof35,aswellasyoungerpersonswhomareoverweight,shouldcheckwithhis/herphysicianbeforecommencingan
exerciseprogram.Personswhohavediabetesorhighbloodpressure,afamilyhistoryofheartdisease,highcholesterolorhaveledsedentary
lifestylesshouldprotectthemselveswithamedicalcheck‐upandstresstestadministeredbyahealthcareprofessional.
Stretchingandmassagingmajormuscles(suchasyourquadriceps)followingaworkoutsessionwillaidinthedissipationoflactic
acidandspeedyourbody’srecovery.
Thefirstfewminutesofyourworkoutshouldbedevotedtowarmingupthemusclesbeforeavigorousworkout.Concentrateon
raisingyourheartrateslowly.
Afteranaerobicworkoutofroughly20‐30minutes,spend10minutesgraduallyreducingyourheartratebymovingslowerorwith
lessresistance.
NOTE:Startslow,withintensitylowuntilyoubuildupenduranceandstrength.Alwaysconsultyourphysicianbefore
beginninganyexerciseprogram.
