hand while you pull out the adjustment knob with

your right hand. Snap the knob back into the

desired position. Check to make sure it is secured

in position.

BEGINNING AN EXERCISE SESSION

To avoid muscular pain and strain, begin

and end each workout by stretching.

Stand on the landing rails to the left and

right of the running belt. Do not stand on

the running belt.

Always hold the handrail for support when

getting on or off the treadmill and when changing

the speed during exercise. Do not jump off

the running belt while it is moving!

If you experience nausea, dizziness or other

abnormal symptoms while exercising, stop your

workout at once and consult a physician.

FINISHING AN EXERCISE SESSION

Never leave the safety tether key in

the treadmill.

Use the main power switch to turn the unit off.

Unplug the electrical cord from the wall outlet

and from the treadmill.

If necessary clean the treadmill from sweat

with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents.

Store the electrical cord where it is clear from

all pathways and out of childrens’ reach.

HOW TO MOTIVATE YOURSELF

TO CONTINUE

In order to reach the goals you have set, you’ll need

to keep finding the motivation to continue so you

achieve your ultimate goal: life-long health and a

new quality of living.

Set yourself realistic targets.

Progress step-by-step according

to your schedule.

Keep a fitness diary and write down

your progress.

Change your way of exercising from

time to time.

Use your imagination.

Learn self-discipline.

One important aspect of your training is versatility.

Varying your training exercises different muscle

groups and helps maintain motivation.

No matter what your goal, you’ll get the best

results by training at the right level of effort,

and the best measure is your own heart-rate. First

find your maximum heart-rate i.e. where the rate

doesn’t increase with added effort. If you don’t

know your maximum heart-rate, please use the

following formula as a guide:

WOMEN :

226 - age

MEN :

220 - age

These are average values and the maximum varies

from person to person. The maximum heart-rate

diminishes on average by one point per year. If you

belong to one of the risk groups mentioned earlier,

ask a doctor to measure your maximum heart-rate

for you. We have defi ned three different heart-rate

zones to help you with targeted training.

BEGINNER

: 50-60 % of maximum heart-rate

Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents

and those who haven’t exercised for a long time.

Three sessions a week of at least a half-hour each

is recommended. Regular exercise considerably

improves beginners’ respiratory and circulatory

performance and you will quickly feel your

improvement.

TR AINER

: 60-70 % of maximum heart-rate

Perfect for improving and maintaining fi tness.

Even reasonable effort develops the heart and lungs

effectively, training for a minimum of 30 minutes

at least three times a week. To improve your

condition still further, increase either frequency or

effort, but not both at the same time!

ACTIVE TR AINER :

70-80 % of maximum heart-rate

Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and

presupposes long-endurance workouts.
