M O N I T O R I N G Y O U R H E A R T R A T E
ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN BEFORE BEGINNING AN EXERCISE PROGRAM.
HOW OFTEN? (Frequency of Workouts)
The American Heart Association recommends that you exercise at least 3 to 4 days per week to maintain
cardiovascular fitness. If you have other goals such as weight or fat loss, you will achieve your goal faster with
more frequent exercise. Whether it’s 3 days or 6 days, remember that your ultimate goal should be to make
exercise a lifetime habit. Many people are successful staying with a fitness program if they set aside a specific
time of day to exercise. It doesn’t matter whether it’s in the morning before breakfast, during lunch hour or while
watching the evening news. What’s more important is that it’s a time that allows you to keep a schedule, and a
time when you won’t be interrupted. To be successful with your fitness program, you have to make it a priority in
your life. So decide on a time, pull out your day planner and pencil in your exercise times for the next month!
CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
Feedback
Your Horizon Fitness upright bike offers two heart rate feedback options. You may choose to use the heart rate
handlebars, or the chest transmitter for a hands free workout.
Heart Rate Handlebar
Place the palm of your hands directly on the heart rate handlebars. Both hands must grip the bars for your
heart rate to register. When griping the handlebars, do not grip tightly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate
your blood pressure. Try to maintain moderate pressure while holding onto the heart rate handlebars. It is
recommended that you hold the handlebars only long enough the see your heart rate readout on the
console. You may experience an erratic readout if consistently holding the handlebars.
Telemetric Chest Transmitter
Prior to wearing the chest transmitter on your chest, moisten the two rubber electrodeswith water. Center the
chest strap just below the breast or pectoral muscles, directly overyour stermum, with the Horizon Fitness logo
facing out. NOTE: The chest strap must be tight and properly placed to receive an accurate and consistent
readout. If the chest strap is too loose, or positioned improperly, you may receive an erratic or inconsistent
heart rate readout.
If you have any problems with the heart rate function please refer to pages 17 & 18 in the troubleshooting
section.
Warning!
The heart rate function is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the accuracy of your heart rate
reading. The heart rate reading is intended only as an exercise aid.
Mountain
Improves performance and stamina by raising the resistance level to high peaks
to simulate the most difficult outdoor terrains.
Fit-Test (Pago 4 Only)

12 13
HOW LONG? (Duration of Workouts)
For aerobic exercise benefits, it’s recommended that you exercise from between 24 and 60 minutes per session.
But start slowly and gradually increase your exercise times. If you’ve been sedentary during the past year, it may
be a good idea to keep your exercise times to as little as five minutes initially. Your body will need time to adjust
to the new activity. If your goal is weight loss, a longer exercise session at lower intensities has been found to
be most effective. A workout time of 48 minutes or more is recommended for best weight loss results.
HOW HARD? (Intensity of Workouts)
How hard you workout is also determined by your goals. If you use your machine to prepare for a 5K workout,
you will probably work out at a higher intensity than if your goal is general fitness. Regardless of your long
term goals, always begin an exercise program at low intensity. Aerobic exercise does not have to be painful to
be beneficial! There are two ways to measure your exercise intensity. The first is by monitoring your heart rate
(using the grip pulse handlebars or a wireless chest transmitter - may be sold separately), and the second is by
evaluating your perceived exertion level (this is simpler than it sounds!).
PERCEIVED EXERTION LEVEL
A simple way to gauge your exercise intensity is to evaluate your perceived exertion level. While exercising, if you
are too winded to maintain a conversation without gasping, you are working out too hard. A good rule of thumb
is to work to the point of exhilaration, not exhaustion. If you cannot catch your breath, it’s time to slow down.
Always be aware of these warning signs of overexertion.
Heart Rate Chart
T A R G E T H E A R T R A T E Z O N E
Your `Target Heart Rate Zone' is a percentage of your maximum heart rate. Target Zoneswill vary for each
individual, depending on age, current level of conditioning, and personal fitness goals. The American Heart
Association recommends workingout at a`Target Heart Rate Zone' of between 60% and 75% of your maximum
hear trate. See thechart below for convenient reference. Example for a 42-year old user: find age along thebot-
tom of the chart (round to 40), follow age column up to the target zone bar. Results:60% of maximum Heart
Rate = 108 Beats Per Minute, 75% of maximum Heart Rate = 135Beats Per Minute.
STRETCH FIRST
Before using your product, it is best to take a few minutes to do a few gentle stretching exercises. Stretching
prior to exercise will improve flexibility and reduce chances of exercise related injury. Ease into each of these
stretches with a slow gentle motion. Do not stretch to the point of pain. Make sure not to bounce while doing
these stretches.
1. STANDING CALF MUSCLE STRETCH
Stand near a wall with the toes of your left foot about 18" from the wall, and
the right foot about 12" behind the other foot. Lean forward, pushing against
the wall with your palms. Keep your heels flat and hold this position for a
count of 15 seconds. Make sure that you do not bounce while stretching.
Repeat on the other side.
2. STANDING QUADRICEP STRETCH
Using a wall to provide balance, grasp your left ankle
with your left hand and hold your foot against the back
of your thigh for 15 seconds. Repeat with your right
ankle and hand.
3. SITTING HAMSTRING & LOWER BACK MUSCLE STRETCH
Sit on the floor with your legs together and straight out in front of you. Do
not lock your knees. Extend your fingers towards your toes and hold for a
count of 15 seconds. Make sure that you do not bounce while stretching. Sit
upright again. Repeat one time.

TIPS

14 15
WARM UP
The first 2 to 5 minutes of a workout should be devoted to warming up. The warm-up will limber your
muscles and prepare them for more strenuous exercise. Make sure that you warm-up on your product at a
slow pace. The warm up should gradually bring your heart rate into your Target Heart Rate Zone.
COOL DOWN
Never stop exercising suddenly! A cool-down period of 3-5 minutes allows your heart to readjust to the
decreased demand. Make sure that your cool down period consists of a very slow pace to allow your heart
rate to lower. After the cool-down, repeat the stretching exercises listed above to loosen and relax your
muscles.
An important step in developing a long-term fitness program is to determine your goals. Is your primary
goal for exercising to lose weight? Improve muscle? Reduce stress? Prepare for the spring racing schedule?
Knowing what your goals are will help you develop a more successful exercise program. Below are some
common exercise goals:
•Weight Loss - lower intensity, longer duration workouts
•Improve Body Shape and Tone - interval workouts, alternate between hi and low intensities
•Increased Energy Level - more frequent daily workouts
•Improved Sports Performance - high intensity workouts
•Improved Cardiovascular Endurance - moderate intensity, longer duration workouts
If possible try to define your personal goals in precise, measurable terms, and then put your goals in writing.
The more specific you can be, the easier it will be to track your progress. If your goals are long term, divide
them up into monthly and weekly segments. Longer term goals can lose some of the immediate motivation
benefits. Short-term goals are easier to achieve. Your console provides you with several readouts that can
be used to record your progress. You can track Distance, Calories or Time.

PROBLEM: Erratic or inconsistent Readout.
SOLUTION: This is often caused by dry electrodes or a loose chest strap. Moisture on the rubber
electrodes is required for proper operation. Try a more generous coating of water on the electrodes and
tightening the chest strap.
Chest your exercise environment for sources of interference such as high power lines, large motors, etc.
You may experience an erratic readout under the following conditions:
• Gripping the heart rate handlebars too tight. Try to maintain moderate pressure while holding onto the
heart rate handlebars.
• Constant movement and vibration due to constantly holding the heart rate grips while exercising.
• When you are breathing heavily during a workout.
• When you hands are constricted by wearing a ring.
• When you hands are dry or cold. Try moistening your palms or rubbing themtogether to warm.
• Anyone with heavy arrhythmia.
• Anyone with arteriosclerosis or peripheral circulation disorder.
• Anyone whose skin on the measuring palms is especially thick.
Note:Outside interference sources such as computers, motors and fluorescentlights may cause the heart
rate reading to be erratic.
If the above thoubleshooting section does not remedy the problem,discontinue use and turn the power
off.Please contact your local dealer for further assistance.
C O M M O N P R O D U C T Q U E S T I O N S
ARE THE SOUNDS MY BIKE MAKES NORMAL?
Our upright bikes are some of the quietest available because they use belt drives and friction free
magnetic resistance. We use the highest grade bearings and belts to minimize noise. However, because
the resistance system itself is so quiet, you will occasionally hear other slight mechanical noises. Unlike
older, louder technologies, there are no fans, friction belts, or alternator noises to mask these sounds on
our upright bikes. These mechanical noises, which may or may not be intermittent, are normal and are
caused by the transfer of significant amounts of energy to a rapidly spinning flywheel. All bearings, belts
and other rotating parts will generate some noise which will transmit through the casing and frame. It is
also normal for these sounds to change slightly during a workout and over time because of thermal
expansion of the parts.
WHY IS THE UPRIGHT BIKE I HAD DELIVERED LOUDER THAN THE ONE ATTHE STORE?
All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom because there is generally more background
noise than in your home. Also, there will be less reverberation on a carpeted concrete floor than on a
wood overlay floor. Sometimes a heavy rubber mat will help reduce reverberation through the floor. If a
fitness product is placed close to a wall, there will be more reflected noise.
HOW LONG WILL THE DRIVE BELT LAST?
The computer modeling we have done indicated virtually thousands of maintenance free hours. Belts are
now commonly used in far more demanding applications such as motorcycle drives.
CAN I MOVE THE BIKE TRAINER EASIER ONCE IT IS ASSEMBLED?
Your Horizon Fitness Upright Bike has a pair of transport wheels built into the front foot. It is easy to
move your Upright Bike by rolling it on the front transport wheels. It is important that you place your
Horizon Fitness Upright Bike in a comfortable and inviting room. Your Upright Bike is designed to use
minimal floor space. Many people will place their Upright Bike facing the TV or a picture window. If at all
possible, avoid putting your Upright Bike in a unfinished basement. To make exercise a desirable daily
activity for you, the Upright Bike should be in an attractive setting.
