HEART RATE PROGRAMS

Each heart rate program heUps you to keep your heart
rate near a certain percentage of your maximum heart
rate during your workout, ('Your maximum heart rate is
estimated by subtracting your age from 220, For
exampb, if you are 30 years cud, your maximum heart
rate is 190,) Heart rate program 1 is designed to keep
your heart rate between 50% and 80% of your maximum heart rate while you exercise; heart rate program 2 is designed to keep your heart rate between
50% and 85% of your maximum heart rate,

Hold the handgrip

putse sensor.

To use a heart rate program, you must use the
handgrip pulse sensor (see step 5 on page 10)
or the optional chest pulse sensor, if you use the
handgrip pulse sensor, it is not necessary to hold
the handgrips continuously during the program,
However, you should hold the handgrips fiequently for the program to operate properly, Each
time you hoM the handgrips, keep your hands
on the metal contacts for at Jeast 30 seconds.

Follow the steps bebw to use a heart rate program,

Note: When you are not holding the handgrips,
the letters "PLS" will appear in the right display
instead of your heart rate,

EXERCmSE GUIDEUNES
Fat Burning

_WARNING:
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively low intensity level for a sustained period of time,
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for energy, Only after the first few minutes of exercise does
your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy, if
your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your
exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest number or the middle number in your training zone as you
exercise,

- Before beginning this or any exercise pro=
gram, consult your physician. This is especially important for individuals over the
age of 35 or individuals with pre-existing
health problems.
* The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is
intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.

Aerobic

if your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be "aerobic," Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged periods of time, This increases the demand
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the
lungs to oxygenate the blood, For aerobic exercise,
adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart
rate is near the highest number in your training zone,

The following guidelines wiii help you to plan your
exercise program, Remember that proper nutrition and
adequate rest are essential for successful results,
EXERCISE iNTENSiTY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide, The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise,

WORKOUT

GUiDELiNES

Each workout should include the following three parts:
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise, A proper warm-up increases your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise,

_

Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 rain=
utes of exercising with your heart rate in your training
zone, (During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate in your training
zone for longer than 20 minutes,)

_

A cooFdown, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching, This
will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will
help to prevent post-exercise problems,

To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the
nearest ten years), Next, find the three numbers above
your age; the three numbers are your "training zone,"
The lowest number is the recommended heart rate for

EXERCmSEFREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three workouts each week, with at bast one day of rest between
workouts, After a few months of regular exercise, you
may complete up to five workouts each week, if
desired, The key to success is make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life,

fat burning; the middle number is the recommended
heart rate for maximum fat burning; and the highest
number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise,
