BASICS ON EXERCISING
Before training on a
Working out with this equipment 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.
Aerobic exercise should above all be pleasant. You should perspire, but your heart rate should stay at a comfortable level. This will allow for a longer training session. Three 30 to 60 minute sessions a week is recommended, depending on your goals, fitness level and schedule.
If you prefer a walking exercise, you can increase the versatility and effort level of your workout by adjusting the elevation. For a more versatile walking exercise, you can also use light dumbbells to work your arm muscles. Remember to pay attention to safety concerns, such as maintaining your balance.
