CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The followingguidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutritionand
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?
Exercise has proven essential for good health and
general well-being. Regular padlcipation in a well-
rounded exercise program results in a stronger and
more efficient heart, 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
intensitylevel 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
trainingzone in the table below. Training zones are
listed according to age and physical condition.
TRAINING ZONE (BEATS/MINo)
AGE UNCONDITIONED CONDITIONED
20 138-167 133-162
25 136-166 132-160
30 135-164 130-158
35 134-162 129-156
40 132-161 127-155
45 131-159 125-153
50 129-156 124-150

60 126-153 121-147
65 125-151 119-145

75 122-147 117-142
80 120-146 1.15-140
85 118-144 114-139
Duringthe firstfew months of your exemise program,
keep your heart 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
untilit 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
a six-second
heartbeat count
and multiplythe
result by ten to find
your heart rate. (A
six-second count
is used because your head rate will drop quickly when
you stop exercising.) If your heart rate is too high,
decrease the intensityof your exercise, if your head
rate is too low, increase the intensity of your exercise.
WORKOUT GUIDEUNES
Each workoutshould include the following three pads:
A warm-up, lasting 5 to 10 minutes. Begin with slow,
controlled stretches, and progress to more rhythmic
stretches. This will increase the body temperature,
heart rate, and circulation in preparation for strenuous
exercise.
A cardiovascular exercise pedod, consisting of 20 to
30 minutes of exercising with your heart rate in your
training zone.
A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.
Thorough stretchingoffsets muscle contractions and
other problems caused when you stop exercising
suddenly. Stretching for incraased flexibility is also
most effective after exercise. A proper cOol-down
should leave you relaxed and comfortably tired.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintainor improve your condition, complete three
workoutseach 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 youi"everyday life.
