LUBRICATING

FORCE

The CARDIO FORCE should be oiled every six months in
the locations shown at the right. Apply a few drops of light
multi-purpose oil between each of the indicated dome caps
and the frame. Be sure to apply oil to each side of the CARDIO FORCE.

CONDITIONING

GUIDELINES

The following guidelines wilt help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition and
adequate rest are essential for successful resuits.

During the first few months of your exercise program,
keep your head rate near the low end of your training
zone as you exercise. After a few months, your heart
rate carl be increased graduatJy until it is near the middle of your training zone as you exercise.

WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is
especially important for persons over the age
of 35 or persons with pre-existing health
problems.

To measure
your heart
rate, stop
exercising and
place two fingers on your
wrist. Take a

EXERCISE iNTENSITY
To maximize the benefits of exercising, it is important
to exercise with the proper intensity. The proper 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 70% and
85% of your maximum heart rate as you exercise.
This is known as your training zone. You can find your
training zone in the table below. Training zones are
listed for both unconditioned and conditioned persons
according to age.

count, and
multiply the
result by 10 to find your heart rate. For example, if
your six-second heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate
is 140 beats per minute. (A six-second count is used
because your heart rate wilt drop rapidly when you
stop exercising.) Adjust the intensity of your exercise
until your heart rate is at the proper level.
WORKOUT

GUIDELINES

A well-rounded
three phases:

workout should include the following

A warm-up phase, lasting 5 to 10 minutes. Begin with
slow, controlled stretches, and progress to more rhythmic stretches to increase the body temperature, heart
rate and circulation in preparation for strenuous exercise. Stretching also guards against muscle, tendon
and ligament sprains.
A cardiovascular
phase, including 20-30 minutes of
exercising with your heart rate in your training zone.
A cool-down phase, consisting of 5-10 minutes of
stretching. Thorough stretching offsets muscle contractions and other problems caused when you stop
exercising suddenly. Stretching for increased flexibility
is often most effective during this phase. This phase
should leave you relaxed and comfortably tired.
After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired.
Remember, the key to success is make exercise a
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
