Use

Before your workout

You should generally perform warm-up exercises before any athletic activity. Warm-up exercises stimulate and improve all physical and psychological performance aspects. The risk of injury is also reduced. The following exercises will warm up large muscle groups through movement.

Jogging

Run on the spot or through the room in a relaxed manner for approximately 5-10 minutes. Alternate with a few turning and hopping jumps in between running.

Workout

ATTENTION!

☐ Each time before using the device, check to make sure that it is correctly assembled, that the base has been correctly set up, and that the safety pin has been inserted in order to secure the angle of incline!

☐ Immediately stop your workout if you feel weak or dizzy. In the event of nausea, pain in the chest or limbs, heart palpation or other symptoms, please immediately contact a physician.
☐ Take adequate breaks between workouts.
☐ Wear suitable clothing for your workout (e.g. a track suit). It is important that your clothing is comfortable and breathable.
☐ Never workout on a full stomach. Do not eat at least one hour before and after your workout.
☐ Risk of injury! Do not workout if you are already tired and exhausted.
□ Always remember that the body needs plenty of liquids when performing physical activity. You should definitely satisfy the body's need for liquids.
□ Always perform warm-up exercises before beginning your workout (see chapter “Before your workout”) in order to minimise the risk of injury.
☐ After your workout, always perform stretching exercises (see chapter “After your work-out”) in order to slowly bring your cardiovascular system back down to a normal level.

• Always remember that your workout can greatly benefit your health if you follow the most important rules. The goal is not to perform a few exercises in a hurry, but to work out regularly over the long term.
  • You can adjust the angle of incline of the main frame to increase the difficulty.

I. Assemble the device (see chapter "Before first use", section "Assembling the device").

1. Insert a battery in the workout computer (see chapter "Before first use", section "Inserting/changing the battery").

2. If you have not already done so, straighten the base and set up the device in a suitable area. Make sure that the base has securely locked into place before getting on the device.

3. Set the workout computer as described in the chapter "Operating the workout computer".

4. Adjust the angle of incline for the base and secure it with the safety pin. Please note: Increasing the angle of incline will increase the difficulty of your workout. We recommend that beginners set a flat angle of incline and gradually increase the level of diffi culty.
