Changing Battery
The physical conditioning benefits that can be achieved with the
Mini Step & Flex 2.0 require regular and consistent use. It is
important that you consult with your physician before starting
this or any exercise program.
During your first several workouts, exercise 3-5 minutes at an
easy pace, then stop, walk around and stretch for 1 minute.
Return to the Mini Step & Flex 2.0 and perform one of the basic
arm exercises for 3-5 minutes. Exercise in this manner for 10-15
minutes every other day for the first several weeks. Progress at
your own pace, gradually adding 1 minute to your total exercise
time until you are exercising at least 15 minutes every other day.
Tension for the upper body exercises is provided by two resist-
ance cords. Each cord provides approximately 5-8 pounds of
resistance. Cords may stretch and lengthen after vigorous or pro-
longed use.
For a total body workout, perform at least one of the upper-body
exercises while stepping.
