7. WARNING! Systems of the heart frequency supervision can be inexact. Excessive training can lead to serious health damage or to the death. Consult a doctor before beginning a planned training programme. He can define the maximum exertion (pulse, Watts, duration of training etc.) to which you may expose yourself and can give you precise information on the correct posture during training, the targets of your training and your diet. Never train after eating large meals.
8. Only train on the machine when it is in correct working order. Use original spare parts only for any necessary repairs. WARNING! Replace the worm parts immediately and keep this equipment out of use until repaired.
9. When setting the adjustable parts, observe the correct position and the marked, maximum setting positions and ensure that the newly adjusted position is correctly secured.

10. Unless otherwise described in the instructions, the machine must only be used for training by one person at a time. The exercise time should not overtake 60 min./daily.

11. Wear training clothes and shoes which are suitable for fitness training with the machine. Your clothes must be such that they cannot catch during training due to their shape (e.g. length). Your training shoes should be appropriate for the trainer, must support your feet firmly and must have non-slip soles.

12. WARNING! If you notice a feeling of dizziness, sickness, chest pain or other abnormal symptoms, stop training and consult a doctor.
13. Never forget that sports machines are not toys. They must therefore only be used according to their purpose and by suitably informed and instructed persons.
14. People such as children, invalids and handicapped persons should only use the machine in the presence of another person who can give aid and advice. Take suitable measures to ensure that children never use the machine without supervision.

Operating and exercising instructions

Exercise 1

a) Begin this exercise with your legs straight, knees together and the upper part of your body upright.
b) Bend forward without bending your knees, grip the handle bar and pull back until the upper part of your body is upright again.

Important: The oar levers should be pulled back with the arms (and not with the body) until your hands have reached your body.

c) Bring the handle bar back to the starting position again.
d) Rest for a moment and then carry out the exercise again, repeating it quietly and continuously.

Exercise 2

a) Begin this exercise sitting upright with the seat as far forward as possible and your knees bent.
b) Push back with the legs keeping your knees together and at the same time pulling the handle bar towards you.
c) Continue pulling until your legs are straight and your hands have reached your body.
d) Relax your arms and legs and let the seat slide forward until you have reached the start position (a) again and then repeat the exercise again.

Training instructions

You must consider the following factors in determining the amount of training effort required in order to attain tangible physical and health benefits:

1. Intensity:

The level of physical exertion in training must exceed the level of normal exertion without reaching the point of breathlessness and / or exhaustion.

A suitable guideline for effective training can be taken from the pulse rate.

During training this should rise to the region of between 70% to 85% of the maximum pulse rate (see the table and formular for determination and calculation of this).

During the first weeks, the pulse rate should remain at the lower end of this region, at around 70% of the maximum pulse rate. In the course of the following weeks and months, the pulse rate should be slowly raised to the upper limit of 85% of the maximum pulse rate. The better the physical condition of the person doing the exercise, the more the level of training should be increased to remain in the region of between 70% to 85% of the maximum pulse rate. This should be done by lengthening the time for the training and / or increasing the level of difficulty.

If the pulse rate is not shown on the computer display or if for safety reasons you wish to check your pulse rate, which could have been displayed wrongly due to error in use, etc., you can do the following:

a. Pulse rate measurement in the conventional way (feeling the pulse at the wrist, for example, and counting the number of beats in one minute).
b. Pulse rate measurement with a suitable specialised device (available from dealers specialising in health-related equipment).

2.Frequency

Most experts recommend a combination of health-conscious nutrition, which must be determined on the basis of your training goal, and physical training three times a week. A normal adult must train twice a week to maintain his current level of condition. At least three training sessions a week are required to improve one's condition and reduce one's weight. Of course the ideal frequency of training is five sessions a week.

3. Planning the training

Each training session should consist of three phases: the warm-up phase, the training phase, and the cool-down phase. The body temperature and oxygen intake should be raised slowly in the warm-up phase. This can be done with gymnastic exercises lasting five to ten minutes.

Then the actual training (training phase) should begin. The training exertion should be relatively low for the first few minutes and then raised over a period of 15 to 30 minutes such that the pulse rate reaches the region of between 70% to 85% of the maximum pulse rate.

In order to support the circulation after the training phase and to prevent aching or strained muscles later, it is necessary to follow the training phase with a cool-down phase. This should be consist of stretching exercises and / or light gymnastic exercises for a period of five to ten minutes.

You find further information on the subject warm-up exercises, stretch exercises or general gymnastics exercises in our download area under www.christopeit-sport.com

4. Motivation

The key to a successful program is regular training. You should set a fixed time and place for each day of training and prepare yourself mentally for the training. Only train when you are in the mood for it and always have your goal in view. With continuous training you will be able to see how you are progressing day by day and are approaching your personal training goal bit by bit.

Calculation formula: Maximum pulse rate = 220 - age (220 minus your age)

90% of the maximum pulse rate = (220 - age) x 0.9

85% of the maximum pulse rate = (220 - age) x 0.85

70% of the maximum pulse rate = (220 - age) x 0.7
