EXERCISE INSTRUCTIONS

Use of the ELLIPTICAL TRAINER offers various benefits; it will improve fitness, muscle tone and when used in conjunction with a calorie controlled diet it will help you to lose weight.

1. Warm-up phase

This phase speeds up the body's blood circulation and gets the muscles ready for exercise. It also reduces the risk of cramp and sprains. It is advisable to do some stretching exercises, as shown below. Each stretch should last approximately 30 seconds, do not overexert the muscles. If you feel pain, STOP.

2. Exercise phase

This phase requires the greatest physical exertion. After regular exercise the leg muscles will become more flexible. It is important to keep the rhythm constant.

The rhythm of the exercise should be fast enough to bring the heart rate into the target area, as shown on the following graph:

This phase should last at least 12 minutes, although it is advisable for most people to start off with sessions of 10-15 minutes.

3. Cool-down phase

This phase allows the cardiovascular and muscle system to relax. It consists of repeating the warm-up exercises, i.e. reducing the rhythm and continuing for approximately 5 minutes. Repeat the stretching exercises but remember not to overexert the muscles.

Eventually your training sessions will have to become longer and more intensive. It is advisable to exercise at least three days per week, on alternate days.

Muscle toning

You should select a high exertion level in order to tone muscles during exercise. This entails greater stress on the leg muscles, so it may be wise to reduce exercise times. If you also wish to improve your overall fitness then you should change your training program. Do the warm-up and cooldown exercises as normal but when you are reaching the end of the exercise phase, increase the exertion level in order to make your legs work harder. You should reduce speed in

order to keep your heart rate within the target area.

Weight loss

In this case the important factor is the effort made. The more intense and the longer the session, the greater the number of calories burned. Even though you are dong the same work as you do to improve fitness, the objective has changed.
