CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

The following guidelines will help you to plan your

exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition and

adequate rest are essential for successful results.

WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise

program, consult your physician. This Is especially

important for individuals over the age of 35 or

individuals with pre-existing health problems.

WHY EXERCISE?

Exemise has proven essential for good health and

general well-being. Regular padicipatton in a well-

rounded exercise program also results in a stronger

and more efficient head, improved respiratory function,

increased stamina and endurance, better weight

management and body fat control, increased ability to

deal with stress, and greater self-esteem and

confidence.

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 ret'e

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 exemtse.

This is known as your training zone. You can find your

training zone in the table below. Training zones are

listed according to age and physical condition.

114-139

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 of regular

exercise, your heart rate can be increased gradually

until it is near the middle of your training zone as you

exercise,

To measure your

heart rate, stop

exercising and

place two fingers

on your wrist. Take

asix-second

heartbeat count.

Multiply the result

by ten to find your

heart rate. (A six-

second count is

used because your

heart rate drops quickly when you stop exercising.) If

your heart rate is too high, decrease the intensity of

your exercise. If your heart rate is too low, increase the

intensityof your exercise.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

A well-rounded workout includes the following three

phases:

A warm-up phase, lasting 5 to 10 minutes. Begin with

slow, controlled stretcl_es, and progress to more

rhythmic stretches. This will increase the body

temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation

for strenuous exercise.

A cardiovascular phase, including20 to 30 minutes

of exercising with your heart rate in your training zone.

A cool-down phase, consisting of 5 to 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.

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three

workouts each week, with at least one day of rest

between workouts. After a few months of regular

exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each

week, if desired. Find the best time of day for your

workouts, and then stickwith it.

Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a

regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
