Exercising Information
Warm Up
A successful exercise program consists of three parts, Warm Up,
Aerobic Exercise and Cool Down. Never start a training session
without warming up. Never finish one without cooling down correctly.
Perform between five and ten minutes of stretching before starting
your workout to prevent muscle strains, pulls and cramps.
Aerobic Exercise Session
Those new to exercise should exercise no more than every other day
to start with.
As your fitness level increases, increase this to 2 in every 3 days.
When you are comfortable with your routine, exercise for 6 days per
week. Always take at least one day off per week.
Exercising in your Target Zone
To ensure that your heart is working in its exercise target zone, you
you will need to locate the pulse in your carotid artery. This is
situated in the side of the neck and can be felt by using the index and
middle fingers. Simply count the number of beats you feel in 10
seconds and then multiply by six to get your pulse rate. This should
be taken before you start to exercise for easy reference.
People who have a greater aerobic fitness, have a lower resting pulse
level and will also be able to exercise with a higher pulse level.

need to be able to take your pulse. If you do not have a pulse monitor,

Exercising Information
Cool
To decrease fatigue and muscle soreness, you should also cool down
by walking at a slow relaxed pace for a minute or so, to allow your
heart rate to return to normal.
Warm Up and Cool Down Exercise
Hold each stretch for a minimum of ten seconds and then relax.
Repeat each stretch two or three times. Do this before your Aerobic
Exercise session and also after you have finished.
Head Roll
Rotate your head to the right for one count, feeling a slight pull on the
left side of your neck. Next, rotate your head back for one count,
stretching your chin. Then rotate your head to the left for one count,
feeling a slight pull on the right side of your neck. Lastly, drop your
head to your chest for one count. Repeat 2 to 3 times.
Toe Touch
Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your back and shoulders
relax as you lower your trunk. Gently stretch down as far as is
comfortable and hold for 10 seconds.
Shoulder Lift
Rotate and lift your right shoulder up towards your ear for one count.
Relax then repeat for the left shoulder.
Repeat 3 - 4 times.

RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT
To ensure smooth efficient cycling action, the tension belt braking
system on your Exercise Cycle has been correctly adjusted by
our factory during production.
To adjust the pedaling resistance during use, start by turning the
Tension Control (32) fully COUNTER-CLOCKWISE at the start of
your workout. Gradually increase the pedalling resistance by turning
the Tension Controller Knob CLOCKWISE as required.
LEVELING THE CYCLE
For security and stability, your Cycle has a factory welded frame and
once fully assembled correctly, should not need further alignment.
However, in the interest of safety, please always ensure that your
Cycle is positioned on a solid, flat surface.

Assembly & Adjustments
EXERCISE MONITOR FUNCTIONS
The 6 function Exercise Monitor is set to start automatically when you begin
to cycle. However, it is possible to switch on the monitor by pressing the
Mode Button at the bottom of the monitor. To save battery consumption,
the monitor will also switch off after it has been idle for approximately four
minutes.
Please refer to the leaflet supplied with the Exercise Monitor for all
operational functions.
LUBRICATION and MAINTENANCE
The moving parts in your Cycle are all pre-lubricated at assembly and
should not require further attention. We recommend however that the
cycle is used inside and stored in a dry condition. To clean the metal
and plastic components, a general household cleaner can be used, but
please be sure to dry the cycle and any attachments before use.
Page 8
In the interest of safety, do not use polish or use any lubricant on the
saddle, foam handgrips or pedals.
