EXERCISE GUIDE
PLEASE NOTE:
Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician. This is
important especially if you are over the age of 45 or individuals with pre-
existing health problems.
The pulse sensors are not medical devices. Various factors, including the
user’s movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse
sensors are intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends
in general.
Exercising is a great way to control your weight, improve your fitness and
reduce the effect of aging and stress. The key to success is to make exercise
a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
The condition of your heart and lungs and how efficient they are in delivering
oxygen via your blood to your muscles is an important factor to your fitness.
Your muscles use this oxygen to provide enough energy for daily activity. This
is called aerobic activity. When you are fit, your heart will not have to work
so hard. It will pump a lot fewer times per minute, reducing the wear and tear
of your heart.
So as you can see, the fitter you are, the healthier and greater you will
feel.
WARM-UP
Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and some light
exercises. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate and
circulation in preparation for exercise. Ease into your exercise.
After warming up, increase the intensity to your desired exercise program. Be
sure to maintain your intensity for maximum performance. Breathe regularly and
deeply as you exercise.
COOLDOWN
Finish each workout with a light jog or walk for at least 1 minute. Then
complete 5 to 10 minutes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the
flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-exercise problems.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
**** This is how your pulse should behave during general fitness exercise.
Remember to warm up and cool down for a few minutes.
The most important factor here is the amount of effort you put in. The harder
and longer you work, the more calories you will burn.
