INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the Eclipse® 4100HR/A Elliptical Trainer. You have selected one of the most advanced, durable and convenient aerobic exercise products on the market today. With the Eclipse 4100HR/A, you can get the physiological and tech- nical benefits of health club models at an incredible value. Whether you are interested in weight loss, strengthening your heart and lungs, toning muscles or a combination of these, the Eclipse 4100HR/A Elliptical Trainer can help you achieve your goals.

To give you the best fitness results, aerobic equipment should be simple, fun and well- designed. The Eclipse 4100HR/A delivers straight across the board. Its patented Orbital Linkage Systemgives you an easy, low-impact stride that follows a true elliptical path with no “drop off” sensation found in so many elliptical trainers. You can change your muscle involvement quickly and easily by simply changing from a forward to a reverse foot motion or by changing your position slightly. You’ll use the muscles of your upper and lower body for a calorie burn approximately equal to running on a treadmill without sacrificing your knees, hips and ankles. State of the art electronics and built-in pulse sensors give you an estimated pulse reading which can help maintain a consis- tent heart rate. And the Eclipse 4100HR/A is so easy to use that you’ll be able to step on and begin your workout right away. Finally the streamlined profile of the Eclipse

4100HR/A will fit in any home or apartment and the transportation wheels make it easy to maneuver and store.

Just one hour a week - three twenty minute sessions - is all it takes to begin experienc- ing the health benefits of aerobic exercise. With regular use of your Eclipse 4100HR/A Elliptical Trainer, you may soon notice some important changes in yourself, such as:

More endurance and stamina

Less body fat and excess weight (if you do not increase your caloric intake)

Improved muscle tone in both your upper and lower body

Increased energy for daily tasks

Less stress and a more positive outlook

And if you increase your exercise program to 20 minutes every day, you can accelerate these benefits dramatically.
