!EXERCISE GUIDELINES

Check with your physician before beginning any type of exercise program. People who have diabetes or high blood pressure, a family history of heart

disease, high cholesterol or have led a sedentary lifestyle should get a medical check-up and a stress test before working out. Medical research has

shown us that there is an amount of exercise which is enough to condition the cardio respiratory system and the muscles of the body. The amount of

exercise is between 60% and 85% of your maximum heart rate measured during a training session. This range allows enough exercise to achieve fitness,

but not an exercise amount to cause injury.

If at any time during exercise you experience dizziness or chest pain stop immediately and seek medical advice

TARGET HEART RATE ZONE

220-your age=maximum heart rate

Do not workout at your maximum heart rate. The recommended heart rate zone is between 60% and 85% of your maximum heart rate.

right foot up. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold
