HOW TO GREASE THE ROLLERS

See the EXPLODED DRAWING near the end of this

manual. If the Rollers (51) squeak when moving on

the Ramp (3), apply a small amount of white marine

grease equally to each Roller. Spread the grease

evenly around the Rollers. Pedal the elliptical exercis-

er until a thin film of grease is distributed along the

Ramp; wipe off any excess grease.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

113

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise

program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a

reputable book or consult your physician. Remember,

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, exercising at the proper inten-

sity is the key to achieving results. You can use your

heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.

The chart below shows recommended heart rates for

fat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the

bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near-

est ten years). The three numbers listed above your

age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is

the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the

heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest

number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-

cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of

time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your

body uses 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 in your training

zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your

heart rate near the middle number in your training

zone.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your

cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic

exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts

of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic

exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until

your heart rate is near the highest number in your

training zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching

and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body

temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation

for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min-

utes 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.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you

exercise–never hold your breath.

Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of

stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your

muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

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 exer-

cise, you may complete up to five workouts each

week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to

make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your

everyday life.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physi-

cian. This is especially important for persons

over age 35 or persons 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 determin-

ing heart rate trends in general.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right.

Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.

1. Toe Touch Stretch

Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from

your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach

down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts,

then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, backs of

knees, and back.

2. Hamstring Stretch

Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot

toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended

leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15

counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches:

Hamstrings, lower back, and groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your

hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back

foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward, and move

your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat

3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles

tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles

tendons, and ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch

With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp

one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your

buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3

times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

5. Inner Thigh Stretch

Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward.

Pull your feet toward your groin as far as possible. Hold for 15

counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip

muscles.
