cardiovascular effect. Note: Although 70% was

used in this example, the heart rate range needed

to achieve results falls between 60% and 85% of

your maximum heart rate.

If you are just beginning your exercise program,

your target heart rate range should be roughly at

60% of your maximum heart rate. As you become

more conditioned (or if you are already in good

cardiovascular shape) you can increase your

target heart rate to 70%-85% of your maximum

heart rate. Remember, your target heart rate is

only a guide.

M8 washers

When checking heart rate during a workout, take

your pulse within five seconds after interrupting

allen bolt

exercise because it starts to go down once you

stop moving. Count pulse for 10 seconds and

multiply by six to get the per-minute rate.

Remember, your Recumbent Bike also comes with

pulse sensors located on the Rear Handlebar.

When used properly, the unit pulse sensors

can help you to determine your estimated

heart rate. To do so:

a) Push the START button on your Computer.

b) Gently grab both metal pulse sensors on

both handlebars. Wait 6 seconds.

c) Your estimated heart rate range will be

displayed on screen. Check the chart on the

following page to see if you are within your

range according to your age.

When used properly, the heart rate pulse

sensors and display monitor provide a

reasonably accurate estimate of your

M8 nylon nuts

actual heart rate. This estimate is not

exact and persons with medical conditions

and/or a specific need for accurate heart

rate monitoring should not rely on the

estimations provided.

By using the chart on the following page you can

see where your heart rate falls in the minimum and

maximum target zones.

The above are guidelines, people with any medical

limitations should discuss this formula with their

physician.

CLOTHING

All exercise clothing should be loose-fitting to

permit freedom of movement, and should make

the wearer feel comfortable and self-assured.

Never wear rubberized or plastic clothing, such

garments interfere with the evaporation of

perspiration and can cause body temperature

to rise to dangerous levels.

We recommend wearing a workout shoe with a

rubberized sole unless instructed otherwise.

TIPS TO KEEP YOU GOING

1) Adopt a specific plan and write it down.

2) Keep setting realistic goals as you go along,

and remind yourself of them often.

3) Keep a log to record your progress and make

sure to keep it up-to-date. See pages 22 - 24.

4) Include weight and/or percent body fat

measures in your log. Extra pounds can

easily creep back.

5) Upgrade your fitness program as you progress.

Your Edge 491r provides 12 different workout

programs to keep your workouts challenging.

6) Enlist the support and company of your family

and friends.

7) Update others on your successes.

8) Avoid injuries by pacing yourself and including

a warm up and cool down period as part of

every workout. See page 16.

9) Reward yourself periodically for a job well done!
