CORRECT EXERCISING POSITION
The seat height should be set so that the middle part of the foot reaches the pedal with the leg almost straight and the pedal at its lowest point. To raise or lower the seat:
1.First turn the locking knob counterclockwise.
2.Then pull the locking knob out so that the seat tube can be moved freely up and down.
3.When the height is right, let go of the knob. The seat locks into place.
4.Tighten the locking knob clockwise.
NOTE! Always make sure that the locking knob is fastened properly before starting to exercise.
The design of the handlebar allows you to exercise either in an upright position or with the upper body leaning forward. Remember, however, always to keep your back straight.
ADJUSTING PEDALLING RESISTANCE
To increase or decrease resistance, turn the adjustment knob at the top of the handlebar support tube clockwise (+ direction) to increase resistance and counterclockwise (- direction) to decrease resistance. The scale above the knob
EXERCISING
Working out using an exercise cycle is excellent aerobic exercise, the principle being that the exercise should be suitably light, but of long duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving the body’s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn improves endurance and fitness. The ability of the body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent on its oxygen- uptake capacity. Aerobic exercise should above all be pleasant. You should perspire, but you should not get out of breath during the workout. You must, for example, be able to speak and not just pant while pedalling. You should exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time, to reach a basic fitness level. Maintaining this level requires a few exercise sessions each week. Once the basic condition has been reached, it is easily improved, simply by increasing the number of exercise sessions.
Exercise is always rewarding for weight loss, because it is the only way of increasing the energy spent by the body. This is why it is always worthwhile to combine regular exercise with a healthy diet. A dieter should exercise daily - at first 30 minutes or less at a time, gradually increasing the daily workout time to one hour.
You should start slowly at a low pedalling speed and low resistance, because for an overweight
person strenuous exercise may subject the heart and circulatory system to excessive strain. As fitness improves, resistance and pedalling speed can be increased gradually. Exercise efficiency can be measured by monitoring the pulse. The pulse meter helps you monitor your pulse easily during exercise, and thus to ensure that the exercise is sufficiently effective but not
