g to exercise
How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you have been inactive for
several years, or are severely overweight, you must start slowly and increase your time on the equipment;
a few minutes per workout.
Initially, youmaybe ableto exercise onlyforafewminutes in your target zone, however, your aerobic fitness
willimprove over thenextsixto eight weeks. Don’tbe discouraged if it takes longer. It’simportant to work
at your ownpace. Ultimately, you’llbe able to exercise continuously for30 minutes. Thebetter your aerobic
fitness, theharder youwill haveto work to stay in your target zone.
Please remember these essentials:
•Have your doctor review your training anddiet programs to advise youof aworkout routine youshould adopt.
•Begin your training program slowly withrealistic goalsthat havebeensetby youandyour doctor.
•Monitor your pulse frequently. Establish your target heartrate based on your ageandcondition.
•Setup your equipment on aflat even surface at least 3feet from walls andfurniture.
Exercise intensity
To maximize thebenefitsof exercising, it is important to exercise withtheproper intensity. Theproper intensity
level can be found by using your heart rate as a guide. For effective aerobic exercise, your heart rate should
be maintained at a level between 65% and 85% of your maximum heart rate as you exercise. This is known as
your target zone. You canfind your target zone in thetable below.
200
180
160
140
120
100
80 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 70
During thefirst fewmonths of your exercise program, keep your heartrate near thelowendof your target zone
as you exercise.After a few months, your heart rate can be increased gradually until it is near the middle of
your target zone as youexercise.
To measure your heart rate, stop exercising but continue moving your legs or
walking around andplace twofingers on your wrist. Takeasix-second heartbeat
count andmultiply theresults by 10 to find your heartrate. Forexample, if your
six-second heartbeat count is 14, your head rate is 140 beats per minute.
(A six-seconds count is used because your heart rate will drop rapidly when you
stop exercising.) Adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is at the
proper level.

Aerobic Exercise
Aerobic exercise improves thefitness of your lungs andheart-your body’smost important muscle. Aerobic
exercise fitness is promoted by anyactivity that uses your large muscles (arms, legs, or buttock, forexample).
Your heart beats quickly and you breathe deeply. An aerobic exercise should be part of your entire exercise
routine.
Weight Training
Along with aerobic exercising which helps get rid of and keep off the excess fat that our bodies can store,
weight training is an essential part of the exercise routine process. Weight training helps tone, build and
strengthen muscle. If youareworking aboveyour target zone, youmaywant to do alesser amount of reps.
As always, consult your doctor before beginning any exercise program.
Targeted Muscle Groups
The exercise routine that is performed on the Cycle/Cross Trainer will develop the upper and lower body
muscle groups. These muscle groups are highlighted on the muscle chart below.

Each workout should include the following three parts:
1. Awarm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise.Aproper warm-up increases
your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.
2. Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 minutes of exercising withyour heartrate in your training
zone. (Note:During thefirst fewweeks of your exercise program, do notkeep your heartrate in your
training zone forlonger than 20 minutes.)
3. Acool-down, with 5to 10 minutes of stretching. This will increase theflexibility of your muscles andwillhelp
to prevent post-exercise problems.
Exercise Frequency

between workouts. After afewmonths of regular exercise, youmaycomplete up to fiveworkouts each
week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your
