EXERCISE SAFETY AND TIPS

EXERCISE SAFETY

• Consult with your physician before beginning a new exercise program.
• Incorrect or excessive exercise or overexertion can be damaging to your health. Always exercise within the heart-beat intensity level and time limits recommended by your doctor.
• Stop exercising immediately and consult your doctor if you begin to feel faint, dizzy, nauseous, or experience pain, irregular heartbeat, or shortness of breath.
• When using the AeroFlex as a balance board, the surface is highly unstable because it is designed to challenge your balance. Be aware, you may fall off the AeroFlex, which could result in injury.
• Always maintain control and move slowly while exercising with the AeroFlex to prevent falling.
• Wear comfortable athletic shoes with non-slip soles. Never use the AeroFlex when wearing only socks or stockings as the slick material could cause you to slip and fall.
• Use a dry towel to wipe sweat off the surface of the platform before use and during the workout. Sweat can make the surface very slippery.
• Never use the AeroFlex while intoxicated. Do not use the AeroFlex during or immediately after eating or when you feel tired. Do not use if injured, ill, or if you have a fever.
• Do not perform other activities while using the AeroFlex to avoid accidents or injury.
• Always inspect the AeroFlex for damage before use.
• Remove items, especially sharp objects, from your pockets before using. Do not wear jewelry, belts, or other accessories that could get snagged and cause injury or falling.

SAFE PLACEMENT OF YOUR AEROFLEX

• Ensure you have adequate clear space around you (at least seven feet on all sides) in case you fall. Remove all objects from the surrounding area.
• To reduce the risk of injury in the event of a fall, place an exercise mat or pad over hard flooring, such as wood, tile, and linoleum.
• Use the AeroFlex only on a flat, non-slip floor.

USING THE AEROFLEX

USING THE AEROFLEX AS A BALANCE BOARD

WARNING: Standing on the AeroFlex in either of the two balance configurations has an increased risk of falling because the platform can tip rapidly.

• If you choose to stand on the platform, take extra precautions against falling, such as:
• Hold onto an appropriately-secured hand-hold, such as a door frame, piece of heavy furniture, etc.
• Place mats on the floor around the balance board.
• Be extremely cautious if holding dumbbells or other equipment in your hands.
• Be prepared to fall. Even with precautions, standing on the platform is a very advanced activity which could result in serious injury or death.

EXERCISE TIPS

• Start slow and easy with 5–10 minute workouts. Work your way up to longer, more challenging workouts over a period of several weeks.
• Breathe naturally during exercise. Never hold your breath. Exhale during exertion and inhale after exertion. For example, during a push-up, inhale as you lower your body to the floor, exhale as you push yourself up.
• Use proper form. Focus on only working the muscle groups intended for the exercise you are performing. Maintain control through the entire range of motion.
• Drink plenty of water before and after exercise.
• Spend at least five minutes warming up, including stretching, before exercise and at least five minutes cooling down after exercise to prevent pulled muscles and other sports injuries.
• Make sure to take sufficient breaks between exercises. Also, take sufficient time off between workout sessions.
• Always wear appropriate athletic clothing. Appropriate clothing should be comfortable, loose, and allow you to move freely.

USING THE AEROFLEX AS A BALANCE BOARD

STEP 1: GETTING COMFORTABLE STEPPING  ON AND OF
Before you begin using the AeroFlex as a balance board, it is very important to get comfortable stepping on and off the surface of the trainer.

1. Start with the AeroFlex in the Front-to-Back Balance Board configuration, which is best for beginner use. Follow the setup instructions on page 10.
2. Place the AeroFlex flat on the ground.
3. Step slowly onto the platform. Always move slowly, with controlled movements.
4. Then, walk forward and off the platform, to the floor. See image above.
5. Repeat several times to get comfortable with the way the platform moves under your feet. Make sure to alternate which foot you step onto the platform with first.
6. After you become comfortable walking forward on the platform, try standing to the side of the AeroFlex and stepping up and down from the side of the platform.
7. After practicing mounting the platform from each side several times, try stepping up and down off the platform backwards (the platform will be behind you). Remember to always move slowly and with control.
   • CAUTION: If you feel like you are beginning to lose your balance while standing on the platform, simply step off the AeroFlex and onto the floor.

STEP 2: GETTING COMFORTABLE STANDING

When you are comfortable stepping on and off the platform from all directions, you’re ready to practice standing on the platform:

1. Step onto the platform with both feet.
2. Stand with your feet in the center of the platform, about hip-width apart.
3. Put your arms up and out to the sides if you need help with balancing. Alternately, you can place your hands on your hips to make balancing more challenging.
4. Do the best you can to maintain good posture:
   • a. Keep your knees slightly bent. Don’t lock your knees.
   • b. Keep your feet as flat as possible.
   • c. Keep your head up, your back straight, and your shoulders back.
5. You should feel the muscles in your abs and back—your core muscles— engaging to help you maintain your balance. You should also feel the muscles in your lower legs and feet working.
6. Relax while still maintaining proper posture. You will notice that it is very difficult to maintain your balance while standing completely still. This is completely normal. As you get more and more used to using the AeroFlex and your core strength increases, you will find it easier to maintain your balance with just small adjustments.
7. To increase the challenge: turn or tilt your head from side to side, or close your eyes for a few seconds. These variations are more challenging and it may take some time and effort to master them.

STEP 3: PERFORMING EXERCISES

• While sitting, lying, or standing on the platform,  you can perform body-weight training exercises,including calf raises, squats, planks, push-ups, glute bridges, arm circles, leg circles, and tricep dips.
• WARNING: Use extra caution when standing on the AeroFlex. Standing on the platform increases the risk of falling which can cause serious injury and even death.

STEP 4: INCREASING EXERCISE DIFFICULTY

• You can increase the difficulty of your workouts gradually over time:
• Slowly increase the time you hold each exercise. Start by holding each exercise for 5–10 seconds. Once you’ve mastered that, try holding each for 15 seconds, then 30 seconds. Continue to slowly increase.
• Slowly increase the number of repetitions you perform of each exercise.
• Start with 5–10 repetitions. Then, try increasing the number of repetitions to 15–20, then 25–30. Continue to slowly increase.
• Try incorporating more advanced bodyweight exercises into your workouts with the AeroFlex, such as mountain climbers, burpees, side planks, lunges, donkey kicks, single-leg planks, supermans, plank jacks, plank climbers, and more!
• Try using the AeroFlex in the more advanced Four-Way Balance Board configuration. See setup instructions on page 11.

STEP 5: INCORPORATING STRENGTH TRAINING

• To continue improving your strength and stamina, you can incorporate strength training equipment such as dumbbells, resistance/yoga bands, and ankle/wrist weights. Start with a low weight, such as 2 lbs. dumbbells or resistance bands, and increase the weight slowly. Example variations:
• Hold a small exercise ball between your knees as you do glute bridges.
• Hold a dumbbell in each hand or use wrist weights when performing exercises that work your arms, shoulders, chest, and upper back.
• Use ankle weights when performing exercises that work your legs, hips, and glutes.
• Use resistance bands or elastic yoga bands to increase the challenge when performing a wide range of body-weight exercises.
  • WARNING: Use extra caution when standing on the AeroFlex. Standing on the platform increases the risk of falling which can cause serious injury and even death.

USING THE AEROFLEX AS A AEROBIC STEP PLATFORM

STEP 1: PERFORMING EXERCISES WITH YOUR AEROFLEX
Step aerobics is a fun, fast-paced cardio workout that provides endless workout variations.
Step up front-to-back:

1. Stand on the ground behind the AeroFlex
2. Step up onto the platform with your left foot. Step up with your right foot.
3. Step backwards off the platform with your left foot. Return your right to the floor.
4. Repeat 10–20 times.
5. Switch feet (step with your right foot first).

Step up side-to-side:

1. Stand on the ground to one side of the AeroFlex.
2. Step sideways up onto the platform with your inside foot. Step up with your outside foot.
3. Step off the side of the platform with your outside foot. Return your inside foot to the floor.
4. Repeat 10–20 times.
5. Stand on the other side of the board and switch feet.

STEP 2: INCREASING EXERCISE DIFFICULTY

• Perform step aerobic variations:
• Lift your knees up high as you step up.
• Touch your opposite elbow to your knee as you step up.
• Raise your arms above your head as you step up and down.
• Slowly increase the number of step repetitions you perform. Start with 10–20 repetitions. Then, try increasing the number of repetitions to 20–30, then 30–40. Continue to slowly increase.
• Pick up the pace. Try putting on some up-beat music and increase the speed of your steps.

STEP 3: INCORPORATING STRENGTH TRAINING
To continue improving your strength and stamina, you can add strength training equipment such as dumbbells, resistance/yoga bands, ankle/wrist weights, or a medicine ball to your step aerobic workout. Start with a low weight, such as 2 lbs. dumbbells or resistance bands, and increase the amount of weight you use slowly.
Strength training options:

• Hold a small dumbbell in each hand.
• Wear wrist weights.
• Hold a medicine ball in your hands.
• Wear ankle weights.
• Use resistance bands or elastic yoga bands.

PRO TIP: While sitting, lying, or standing on the platform in the stepaerobic configuration, you can perform body-weight training exercises, including calf raises, incline planks, push-ups, side planks, glute bridges, single-leg planks, and tricep dips.

USING THE AEROFLEX AS AN INCLINE STRETCHING BOARD
STRETCHING WITH YOUR AEROFLEX

• Use AeroFlex in the incline position to stretch your hamstrings, shins, calves, ankles, Achilles tendons, and feet.

ENDURANCE TRAINING

PREPARING FOR TRAINING
It is important to make an appointment with your physician for a checkup and to discuss your training goals. Your physician can advise you on the most suitable exercise type, duration, and exertion level for you and help you create a suitable exercise plan before you begin using the AeroFlex. This is especially important for people who:

• Are older than 35 years of age.
• Have blood pressure that is too high or too low.
• Have heart problems.
• Are overweight.
• Have not done endurance or cardio workouts for a long period of time.

TRAINING RECOMMENDATIONS HYDRATION

• Adequate hydration is essential before and during exercise. During a training session of 30 minutes it is possible to lose up to 4 cups of liquid. You should drink about 1.5 cups of water 30 minutes before beginning exercise. Take care to maintain balanced hydration during your workout.

TRAINING FREQUENCY

• Experts recommend endurance training 3–4 days a week to keep your cardiovascular system fit. The more you train, the faster you will achieve your training goals. However, it is important to plan sufficient breaks, to give your body enough time for rest and recovery. After each training session, you should take at least one day off.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

• Many beginners make the mistake of training too intensely. If your goal is to run a marathon, your training intensity will certainly be high.
• However, most people have training goals such as weight reduction, cardiac/exercise training, stress reduction, and therefore should exercise at a lower intensity.
• We recommend aiming for the appropriate target heart rate for your particular training goal. See CALCULATING TARGET HEART RATE on page 23 for more information.

DURATION OF INDIVIDUAL TRAINING SESSIONS

• For endurance training or weight reduction, the duration of each training session should be 25–60 minutes.
• Beginners and those who have not exercised regularly for a long period of time should start with short training sessions of 10 minutes or less in the first week and slowly increase training duration week to week.

TRAINING DOCUMENTATION

• To stay motivated and to evaluate the success of your training, create a training plan before beginning a new exercise routine.
• In your plan, document data from each training session, such as distance, training time, pulse, as well as data, such as body weight, blood pressure, resting heart rate (measured in the morning right after waking up), and how you feel during exercise. See the SAMPLE WEEKLY TRAINING PLAN on the bottom of page 22.

TRAINING INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1: WARM-UP PHASE

• Spend about 5 minutes doing warm-up stretches before exercising; this prevents pulled muscles and other exercise injuries.
• Stretching gets blood flowing and helps loosen your muscles so they are ready for exercise.
• While doing the following stretches, do not force or jerk your muscles, and most importantly, if it hurts: STOP.
• After stretching, continue your warm-up by walking or riding a bike for 3–5 minutes at a low speed.

TOUCH YOUR TOES

1. Bend your knees slightly. Let your back and shoulders relax as you bend over and try to touch your toes.
2. Hold the stretch for 10–15 seconds. Repeat 3 times.

STRETCH YOUR LEGS, CALVES, AND BUTTOCKS

1. Sit on the floor or a cushion. Place your left foot against your right inner thigh.
2. Bend toward your right foot and try to touch your toes.
3. Hold the stretch for 10–15 seconds.
4. Switch legs and repeat. Stretch each leg 3 times.

STRETCH YOUR QUADS

1. Place your left hand on a wall or a table to help with balance.
2. With your right hand, grab your right ankle. Pull your heel in toward your buttocks.
3. Hold the stretch for 10–15 seconds.
4. Switch legs and repeat. Stretch each leg 3 times.

STRETCH YOUR GROIN AND INNER THIGH MUSCLES

1. Sit on the floor or a cushion with your knees bent and the soles of your feet together.
2. Hold your ankles and bend forward at your hips.
3. Hold the stretch for 10–15 seconds. Repeat 3 times.

STEP 2: EXERCISE PHASE

• During the exercise phase you’re building muscle, stamina, and improving your cardiovascular health slowly over time.
• The most important thing is to always listen to your body.
• If you are tired or sore, slow down or stop training for the day.

STEP 3: RECOVERY PHASE

• After exercising, it’s important to give your body time to cool down and recover.
• Walk or ride a bike for another 3–5 minutes at low speed.
• Then, spend 5 minutes completing the above warm-up stretches to continue cooling down your muscles.
• Be careful not to force or jerk your muscles as you stretch.

CALCULATING TARGET HEART RATE

Calculate your personal target heart rate when training based on your fitness goals:

MAXIMUM HEART RATE: 220 – Your Age = Max Heart Rate

• This value represents your maximum heart rate (“max HR”) and serves as a basis from which to calculate your personal training heart rate.

HEALTH & WELLNESS TRAINING: Target Zone = 50-60% of Max HR

• Ideal for people who are overweight, older, beginners, or who do not exercise often.
• Burn approx. 4–6 calories per minute to produce energy in this zone.

FAT BURNING TRAINING: Target Zone = 60-70% of Max HR

• Ideal for athletes and sports people who aim to lose weight.
• Burn approx. 6–10 calories per minute to produce energy in this zone.

CONDITIONING & FITNESS TRAINING: Target Zone = 70-80% of Max HR

• Ideal for athletes and sports people who want to improve their stamina and/or conditioning.
• Burn approx. 10–12 calories per minute to produce energy in this zone.

For best results, calculate the average value of selected target zone (see chart above):

• Health & Wellness: target zone average = 55% of max HR (max HR x 0.55)
• Fat Burning: target zone average = 65% of max HR (max HR x 0.65)
• Conditioning & Fitness: target zone average = 75% of max HR (max HR x 0.75)
