BENEFITS / ADVANTAGES OF STATIONARY
CYCLING: Stationary cycling provides
an excellent aerobic workout while conditioning
your lower body especially your quadriceps
[front of thighs.] Cycling is a low- impact
workout that creates less stress on your
knees and joints. The exercise provides
for targeted weight loss on the Buns,
Thighs and lower abdomen. In addition
the recumbent cycle has the added advantage
of strengthening the Gluteus [rear] and
Hamstring muscles [back of thighs].
Cycling is an excellent
Cardio- vascular exercise and improves
your stamina and while strengthening your
legs gives you the benefit of targeting
your calorie burn- out, thereby, reducing
your weight where it matters most. Use
Fat burn Program 3 to 6 for weight loss
and 7 to 10 for endurance and strength.
Program 11 & 12 are heart rate programs.
Program 2 is a combination of endurance
& weight loss.
The Elliptical Trainer
has a large footpad offering you a variety
of foot positions. Moving your foot to
the forwardmost position of the footpad
increases your step height; your workout
in this position is most effective in
developing your quadriceps muscles. By
placing your feet to the toward the back
of the foot pad decreases your step height
and keeps the step pattern elliptical,
thereby your workout will feel more like
a ski glide or smooth run or walk.
IMPORTANT EXERCISE
GUIDELINES: The American Heart
association recommends that you exercise
at least 3 to 4 days per week to maintain
cardiovascular fitness. If you have other
goals such as weight or fat loss you will
achieve your goal faster with more frequent
exercise. Remember that your ultimate
goal should be to make exercise a lifetime
habit.
For aerobic exercise
benefits it’s recommended that you
exercise from between 24 to 32 minutes
per session. If your goal is weight loss
a longer exercise pattern at lower intensities
has been found to be most effective. A
workout of 48 minutes is recommended for
best weight loss results.
Always begin a program
at low intensity level. Aerobic exercise
does not have to be vigorous or painful
to be beneficial. There are two ways to
measure your exercise intensity. The first
is by monitoring your heart rate and the
second is by evaluating your perceived
exertion level. If while exercising you
are too winded to maintain a conversation
without gasping, It means you are working
too hard. If you cannot catch your breath
it is time to slow down.
The benefits of exercise
are --
-
Weight loss /
Weight maintenance.
-
Improve body shape
and tone / strengthen leg muscles.
-
Increased energy
level / Improved sleep patterns.
-
Improved cardiovascular
endurance and stress reduction.
-
Positive thinking
and hence a Positive attitude.
-
For Strength Training
it’s recommended that you use
optimum weight where you can do 8
to 10 repetitions. Do 3 to 4 sets
for each body part for example Chest
press for chest; Lat pulls down for
back and leg extension for quadriceps.
The weight factor must be such that
no discomfort or pain is felt while
exercising. Increase weight gradually
and it is recommended that 45 to 60
seconds break be taken between sets
of exercise.
We wish all users good
health and happiness. Start exercising
it will improve your outlook on life and
make you a healthier and happier individual.
Stay motivated and have realistic goals.
Monitor your progress every fortnight
and always exercise within your target
heart rate zone.
