INTRODUCTION

CONGRATULATIONS ON PURCHASING YOUR

EDGE 595r RECUMBENT BIKE

With this product in your home, you have everything you need to start your own workout program to tone and firm the major muscle groups of your lower body. This is vital for all of us, regardless of age, sex, or fitness level, and regardless of whether your primary goal is toning, health maintenance, or more energy for daily activities.

Proper exercise, including a low fat diet, strength training and aerobic exercise, tones and conditions the muscles we use every day to stand, walk, lift and turn. It can actually transform our body composition by reducing body fat and increasing the proportion of lean muscle in our bodies. Using the bike will help in reducing body fat and increasing cardiovascular endurance.

Be sure to read through this Owner’s Manual carefully.

It is the authoritative source of information about your Recumbent Bike.

Retain this manual for future reference.

4. Back Stretch

Stand with your legs shoulder length apart and your knees slightly bent. Bend forward from your waist with your arms extending loosely in front of your body. Gently bend from the waist flexing your body as far forward as it will go.

Hold for 20 to 30 seconds. Straighten up and repeat.

5. Standing Hamstrings Stretch

Stand with your legs hip-width apart. Extend one leg out in front of you and keep that foot flat against the ground. With your hands resting lightly on your thighs, bend your back leg and lean forward slightly from your hips until you feel a stretch in the back of your thigh. Be sure to lean forward from the hip joint rather than bending at your waist.

Hold for 20 to 30 seconds. Repeat for the opposite leg.

6. Buttocks, Hips and Abdominal Stretch
