FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced consob offers a selection of features

designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and

effective, When the manual mode of the console is

selected, the resistance of the exercise cycle can be

changed with the touch of a button, As you exercise,

the console will provide continuous exercise feedback,

You can even measure your heart rate using the hand-

grip pulse sensor. Note: For information about an

optional chest pulse sensor, see page 21,

The console also offers six resistance and pace pro-

grams, Each program automatically changes the resis-

tance of the exercise cycle and prompts you to

increase or decrease your pace as it guides you

through an effective workout,

in addition, the console features two heart rate pro-

grams that automatically change the resistance of the

exercise cycle and prompt you to vary your pace to

keep your heart rate near a target heart rate as you

exercise,

The console also features iFIT,com interactive technoF

ogy, Having iFIT,com technology is like having a per-

sonal trainer in your home, Using the included audio

cable, you can connect the exercise cycle to your

home stereo, portable stereo, computer, or VCR and

play special iFIT,com CD and video programs (iFIT,com

CDs and videocassettes are available separately),

iFIT,com CD and video programs automatically control

the resistance of the exercise cycle and prompt you to

vary your pace as a personal trainer coaches you

through every step of your workout, High-energy music

provides added motivation, To purchase iFIT.com

CDs and videocassettes, call toil-free 1-800-735-

0768.

With the exercise cycle connected to your computer,

you can also go to our Web site at www, iFIT,com and

access programs directly from the intemet, Explore

wwwJFIT.com for more information.

and one pace setting are programmed for each

segment, (Note: The same resistance setting

and/or pace setting may be programmed for two or

more consecutive segments,) The resistance set-

HOWTOUSE HEART RATE PROGRAMS

Each heart rate program heUpsyou 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 maxi-

mum heart rate while you exercise; heart rate pro-

gram 2 is designed to keep your heart rate between

50% and 85% of your maximum heart rate,

Follow the steps bebw to use a heart rate program,

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 fie-

quently for the program to operate properly, Each

time you hoM the handgrips, keep your hands

on the metal contacts for at Jeast 30 seconds.

Note: When you are not holding the handgrips,

the letters "PLS" will appear in the right display

instead of your heart rate,

Press the Program Start button or begin

pedaling to start the program.

When the program is started, the exercise cycle

target heart rate setting may be programmed for

two or more consecutive segments,

During the last three seconds of each segment, a

series of tones will sound, The resistance of the

exercise cycle will then automatically change if a

PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function proper-

EXERCmSE GUIDEUNES

_WARNING:

-Before beginning this or any exercise pro=

gram, consult your physician. This is espe-

cially 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 deter-

mining heart rate trends in general.

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 recom-

mended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat burn-

ing, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise,

165 155 I45 !40 130 125 115 _

!45 138 !30 125 I18 110 103 _

125 120 115 110 105 95 90

20 30 40 50 60 70 80

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

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,

Fat Burning

To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-

ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time,

During the first few minutes of exercise, your body

uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-

gy, 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 num-

ber or the middle number in your training zone as you

exercise,

Aerobic Exercise

if your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-

tem, 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,

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 prepa-

ration 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 pro-

gram, 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,

EXERCmSEFREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, plan three work-

outs 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 regu-

lar and enjoyable part of your everyday life,
