MONITORING YOUR HEART RATE

FEEDBACK

Your Horizon Fitness upright bike offers two heart rate feedback options. You may choose to use the heart rate handlebars, or the chest transmitter for a hands free workout. (B30 model only)

HEART RATE HANDLEBAR

Place the palm of your hands directly on the heart rate handlebars. Both hands must grip the bars for your heart rate to register. When griping the handlebars, do not grip tightly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate your blood pressure. Try to maintain moderate pressure while holding onto the heart rate handlebars. It is recommended that you hold the handlebars only long enough to see your heart rate readout on the console. You may experience an erratic readout if consistently holding the handlebars.

TELEMETRIC CHEST TRANSMITTER

Prior to wearing the chest transmitter on your chest, moisten the two rubber electrodes with water. Center the chest strap just below the breast or pectoral muscles, directly over your sternum, with the Horizon Fitness logo facing out. Note: The chest strap must be tight and properly placed to receive an accurate and consistent readout. If the chest strap is too loose, or positioned improperly, you may receive an erratic or inconsistent heart rate readout. (B30 model only)

If you have any problems with the heart rate function please refer to (pages 28 & 29) in the troubleshooting section.

WARNING!

The heart rate function is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the accuracy of your heart rate reading. The heart rate reading is intended only as an exercise aid.

USING YOUR RACE PROGRAM

Your Race Program is designed to add motivation to a workout by allowing you to compete against a selected pacer. To use your Race Program, follow these instructions:

I. Choose the Race program by either pressing the 'Up' or 'Down' buttons. Press 'Enter'.
2. Choose the desired Pace (average speed) using the 'Up' or 'Down' buttons. There are a total of 16 Pace levels to choose from, ranging from 15mph to 30mph in increments of 1mph, with 15mph being the lowest and 30mph being the highest. Once the desired Pace is selected, press 'Enter'.
3. Choose the desired Distance by pressing the 'Up' or 'Down' buttons. Press 'Enter'.
4. Choose your weight by pressing the 'Up' or 'Down' buttons. Press 'Enter'.
5. Press 'Start' and begin your Race Program.

The time of the program will default accordingly to the pace (average speed) and distance that you entered. After the Race Program has started, press the 'Up' or 'Down' buttons or the quick resistance keys to adjust your resistance (levels 1-20). Your goal in this program is to beat the pacer to the finish line by covering an equal distance at a faster pace.

The top row of bars shows the computer pacer position. The bottom row of bars indicates your position. If you trail the pacer, you should pedal at a faster speed to catch and pass the pacer.

If you beat the pacer to the finish line, the screen will flash "Time Over" and the program will end. Note: If you beat the pacer to the finish line, you will complete the program before the projected finish time. If the pacer beats you to the finish line, the entire program time will elapse.

USING YOUR PULSE Zone™ PROGRAM

The Pulse Zone Program is designed to keep the user at an optimum exercise level, while adjusting the resistance levels to keep the user at a target heart rate. To choose the Pulse Zone Program, follow these instructions. (B30 only)

1. Choose the Pulse Zone Program by pressing the 'Up' or 'Down' buttons. Press 'Enter'.
2. Determine your target Pulse Zone by using the heart rate chart (reference target heart rate Pulse Zone chart in table of contents). Choose your target pulse zone by pressing the 'Up' or 'Down' buttons. Your target pulse zone should be set at a number that you will be able to exercise throughout the majority of your workout.
3. The Pulse Zone Program will have a 5 minute warm-up period before it will start adjusting the resistance levels to get you to your target pulse zone.
4. After the 5 minute warm-up period, the resistance levels will increase gradually to get the user to the selected target pulse zone. Once the user is at the target pulse zone; plus or minus 5 beats, the resistance level will remain at the current resistance level.
5. If the actual heart rate of the user is above the target pulse zone, the resistance levels will gradually begin decreasing to keep the user in the target pulse zone. If the user is more than 25 beats above the target pulse zone, the console will shut down for safety purposes.
6. The last 5 minutes of the program will be dedicated to a cool-down period. At this time, the program will gradually decrease the resistance level to give the user a smooth and easy cool down.

NOTE: The chest strap is required to use the Target Pulse Zone Program

CHEST STRAP TRANSMITTER PLACEMENT AND MOISTENING THE ELECTRODES

USING YOUR ADVENTURE PROGRAM

Your Adventure Program is designed to allow you to create your own programming, with the ability to save your program settings for future workouts. To use your Adventure Program, follow these instructions: (B30 only)

1. Once the Adventure Program has been selected, press 'Enter'.
2. Choose your desired time using the 'Up' or 'Down' button and press 'Enter'.
3. Choose your desired speed using the 'Up' or 'Down' button and press 'Enter'. You will need to select a speed for all 15 segments, pressing 'Enter' after each segment.
4. Once you have chosen your desired resistance level for all 15 segments, press 'Start' to begin your program. At this time, your program has been successfully saved into memory, and can be used for future workouts.
5. To reset your program information and delete it from memory, press and hold the 'Enter' button for 5 seconds once you have selected the Adventure Program in the start menu.
6. While using your saved program in the Adventure Program, you are able to adjust the resistance, but any changes will not be saved.

TARGET HEART RATE ZONE

Your 'Target Heart Rate Zone' is a percentage of your maximum heart rate. Target Zones will vary for each individual, depending on age, current level of conditioning, and personal fitness goals. The American Heart Association recommends working-out at a 'Target Heart Rate Zone' of between 60% and 75% of your maximum heart rate. See the chart below for convenient reference. EXAMPLE for a 42-year old user: find AGE along the bottom of the chart (round to 40), follow AGE column up to the TARGET ZONE BAR. RESULTS: 60% of maximum Hear Rate = 108 Beats Per Minute, 75% of maximum Heart Rate = 135 Beat Per Minute.

Your Horizon Fitness upright bike is designed to be reliable and maintenance free. However, if you do experience problems with your upright bike, please reference the troubleshooting guide listed below.

PROBLEM: There is no display on the console.

SOLUTION: Remove the console and verify that the console cable is attached properly, making sure that the cable is securely inserted into the console.

PROBLEM: The upright bike makes a squeaking or chirping noise.

SOLUTION: Loosen all bolts attached during the assembly process, grease the threads and tighten again.

PROBLEM: The resistance levels seem to be incorrect, seeming too hard or too easy.

SOLUTION: Reset the console and allow the resistance to reset to the default position. Restart the console and retry the resistance levels. (B30 only)

HEART RATE TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM: There is no heart rate reading

SOLUTION: If you are using the chest strap, there may be a poor connection between the electrodes and the skin. Remoisten the electrodes with water. (B30 only)

SOLUTION: The chest strap may not be positioned properly. Reposition the chest strap. It may be necessary to experiment with the fit and position of the chest strap. (B30 only)

SOLUTION: Verify that the distance between the chest strap and the console is not beyond the recommended range of 36 inches. (B30 only)

SOLUTION: The battery in the chest strap may be dead. Take the chest strap to a jewelry store or return to Horizon Fitness for a battery replacement. (B30 only)

PROBLEM: Erratic or Inconsistent Readout.

SOLUTION: This is often caused by dry electrodes or a loose chest strap. Moisture on the rubber electrodes is required for proper operation. Try a more generous coating of water on the electrodes and tightening the chest strap. (B30 only)

Chest your exercise environment for sources of interference such as high power lines, large motors, etc.

You may experience an erratic readout under the following conditions:

- Gripping the heart rate handlebars too tight. Try to maintain moderate pressure while holding onto the heart rate handlebars.

- Constant movement and vibration due to constantly holding the heart rate grips while exercising.

- When you are breathing heavily during a workout.

- When your hands are constricted by wearing a ring.

- When your hands are dry or cold. Try moistening your palms or rubbing them together to warm.

- Anyone with heavy arrhythmia.

- Anyone with arteriosclerosis or peripheral circulation disorder.

- Anyone whose skin on the measuring palms is especially thick.

Note: Outside interference sources such as computers, motors and fluorescent lights may cause the heart rate reading to be erratic.

If the above troubleshooting section does not remedy the problem, discontinue use and turn the power off.

COMMON PRODUCT QUESTIONS

ARE THE SOUNDS MY UPRIGHT BIKE MAKES NORMAL?

Our upright bikes are some of the quietest available because they use belt drives and friction free magnetic resistance. We use the highest grade bearings and belts to minimize noise. However, because the resistance system itself is so quiet, you will occasionally hear other slight mechanical noises. Unlike older, louder technologies, there are no fans, friction belts, or alternator noises to mask these sounds on our upright bikes. These mechanical noises, which may or may not be intermittent, are normal and are caused by the transfer of significant amounts of energy to a rapidly spinning flywheel. All bearings, belts and other rotating parts will generate some noise which will transmit through the casing and frame. It is also normal for these sounds to change slightly during a workout and over time because of thermal expansion of the parts.

All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom because there is generally more background noise than in your home. Also, there will be less reverberation on a carpeted concrete floor than on a wood overlay floor. Sometimes a heavy rubber mat will help reduce reverberation through the floor. If a fitness product is placed close to a wall, there will be more reflected noise.

HOW LONG WILL THE DRIVE BELT LAST?

The computer modeling we have done indicated virtually thousands of maintenance free hours. Belts are now commonly used in far more demanding applications such as motorcycle drives.

CAN I MOVE THE UPRIGHT BIKE EASILY ONCE IT IS ASSEMBLED?

Your Horizon Fitness upright bike has a pair of transport wheels built into the front foot. It is easy to move your upright bike by rolling it on the front transport wheels. It is important that you place your Horizon Fitness upright bike in a comfortable and inviting room. Your upright bike is designed to use minimal floor space. Many people will place their upright bikes facing the TV or a picture window. If at all possible, avoid putting your upright bike in a unfinished basement. To make exercise a desirable daily activity for you, the upright bike should be in a attractive setting.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

Always consult your physician before beginning an exercise program.

HOW OFTEN?

The American Heart Association recommends that you exercise at least 3 to 4 days per week to maintain cardiovascular fitness. If you have other goals such as weight or fat loss, you will achieve your goal faster with more frequent exercise. Whether it's 3 days or 6 days, remember that your ultimate goal should be to make exercise a lifetime habit. Many people are successful staying with a fitness program if they set aside a specific time of day to exercise. It doesn't matter whether it's in the morning before your shower, during lunch hour or while watching the evening news. What's more important is that it's a time that allows you to keep a schedule, and a time when you won't be interrupted. If you are to be successful with your fitness program, you have to make it a priority in your life. So decide on a time, pull out your day planner and pencil in your exercise times for the next month!

HOW LONG?

For aerobic exercise benefits, it's recommended that you exercise from between 24 and 32 minutes per session. But start slowly and gradually increase your exercise times. If you've been sedentary during the past year, it may be a good idea to keep your exercise times to as little as five minutes initially. Your body will need time to adjust to the new activity. If your goal is weight loss, a longer exercise session at lower intensities has been found to be most effective. A workout time of 48 minutes or more is recommended for best weight loss results.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

WHAT KIND OF ROUTINE MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED?

We use sealed bearings throughout our bikes so lubrication is not needed. The most important maintenance step is to simply wipe your perspiration off the bike after each use.

HOW DO I CLEAN MY HORIZON FITNESS UPRIGHT BIKE?

Clean with soap and water cleaners only. Never use solvents on plastic parts.

Cleanliness of your Horizon Fitness upright bike and its operating environment will keep maintenance problems and service calls to a minimum. For this reason, Horizon Fitness recommends that the following preventive maintenance schedule be followed.

AFTER EACH USE (DAILY)

- Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. (B30 only)

WARNING!

To remove power from the upright bike, the power cord must be disconnected from the wall outlet.

• Never use solvents, as they can cause damage to the upright bike.
• Inspect the power cord. If the power cord is damaged, contact Horizon Fitness. (B30 only)
• Make sure the power cord is not underneath the upright bike or in any other area where it can become pinched or cut. (B30 only)

EVERY WEEK

Clean underneath the upright bike, following these steps:

• Unplug the power cord at the wall outlet.
• Move the upright bike to a remote location.
• Wipe or vacuum any dust particles or other objects that may have accumulated underneath the upright bike.
• Return the upright bike to its previous position.

EVERY MONTH

- Inspect all assembly bolts and pedals on the machine for proper tightness.

HOW HARD?

How hard you workout is also determined by your goals. If you use your Horizon Fitness upright bike to prepare for a 5K race, you will probably work out at a higher intensity than if your goal is general fitness. Regardless of your long term goals, always begin an exercise program at low intensity. Aerobic exercise does not have to be painful to be beneficial! There are two ways to measure your exercise intensity. The first is by monitoring your heart rate (see page 17), and the second is by evaluating your perceived exertion level (this is simpler than it sounds!). Note: Always consult your physician before beginning an exercise program.

PERCEIVED EXERTION LEVEL

The second and simpler way to gauge your exercise intensity is to evaluate your perceived exertion level. While exercising if you are too winded to maintain a conversation without gasping, you are working out too hard. A good rule of thumb is to work to the point of exhilaration, not exhaustion. If you cannot catch your breath, it's time to slow down. Always be aware of other warning signs of overexertion.

STRETCH FIRST

Before using your Horizon Fitness product, it is best to take a few minutes doing a few gentle stretching exercises. Stretching prior to exercise will improve flexibility and reduce chances of exercise related injury. Ease into each of these stretches with a slow gentle motion. Do not stretch to the point of pain. Make sure not to bounce while doing these stretches.

WALL PUSH

Stand near a wall with the toes of one foot about 18" from the wall, and the other foot about 12" behind the other foot. Lean forward, pushing against the wall with your palms. Keep your heels flat and hold this position for a count of 15 seconds. Make sure that you do not bounce while stretching. Alternate positions of your feet and repeat for a total of 8 repetitions.

STANDING QUADRICEPS STRETCH

Using a wall to provide balance, grasp your left ankle with your left hand and hold your foot against the back of your thigh for a count of 15 seconds. Repeat with your right ankle and hand, and continue alternating for a total of 8 repetitions.

SEATED TOE TOUCH

Sit on the floor with your legs together and straight out in front of you. Do not lock your knees. Extend your fingers towards your toes and hold for a count of 15 seconds. Make sure that you do not bounce while stretching. Sit upright again. Repeat for a total of 8 repetitions.

THE IMPORTANCE OF WARM UP AND COOL DOWN

WARM UP

The first 2 to 5 minutes of a workout should be devoted to warming up. The warm-up will limber your muscles and prepare them for more strenuous exercise. Make sure that you warm-up on your Horizon Fitness product at a slow pace.

COOL DOWN

Never stop exercising suddenly! A cool-down period allows your heart to readjust to the decreased demand. Make sure that your cool down period consists of a very slow pace to allow your heart rate to lower. After the cool-down, repeat the stretching exercises on page 28 to loosen and relax your muscles.

ACHIEVING YOUR FITNESS GOALS

An important step in developing a long term fitness program is to determine your goals. Is your primary goal for exercising on your Horizon Fitness upright bike to lose weight? Improve muscle? Burn Stress? Prepare for the spring racing schedule? Knowing what your goals are will help you develop a more successful exercise program. Below are some common exercise goals:

• Weight Loss
• Improve Body Shape and Tone
• Increased Energy Level
• Improved Sports Performance

• Improved Cardiovascular Endurance

• Weight Maintenance

• Strengthen Leg Muscles
• Improved Sleep Patterns
• Stress Reduction

If possible try to define your personal goals in precise, measurable terms, and then put your goals in writing. The more specific you can be, the easier it will be to track your progress. If your goals are long term, divide them up into monthly and weekly segments. Longer term goals can lose some of the immediate motivation benefits. Short term goals are easier to achieve. Your Horizon Fitness upright bike console provides you with several readouts that can be used to record your progress. You can track Distance, Calories or Time. Time is the most important and useful of test functions.

KEEPING AN EXERCISE DIARY

Photocopy the weekly and monthly log sheets on the following pages to make your personal exercise log book. As time goes by you'll be able to look back with pride at the work you've done. As your fitness improves, you can look back and see how far you've come.
