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. 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.

HEART RATE

No matter what your goal, you'll get the best results by
training at the right level of effort, and the best measure
is your own heart rate.
pULSE MEASUREMENT WITH
HANDGRIp SENSORS
Hand pulse is measured using the sensors located on
the handlebars. The sensors measure electric impulses,
which are formed when the person's heart is beating.
Measurement is started by touching both handlebar
sensors simultaneously. To ensure reliable pulse
measurement, skin must be slightly moist and skin
contact with sensors must be continuous. If skin is too
dry or too wet, the hand pulse measurement operation
is less reliable. Try to keep your upper body and palms
relaxed and still.

TELEMETRIC HEART RATE MEASUREMENT

The most reliable heart rate measurement is achieved
with a telemetric device, in which the electrodes of
the transmitter fastened to the chest transmit the
pulses from the heart to the console by means of an
electromagnetic field.
If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please consult
NOTE!
a physician before using a wireless heart rate monitor.
If you want to measure your heart rate this way
during your workout, moisten the grooved electrodes
on the transmitter belt with saliva or water. Fasten
the transmitter just below the chest with the elastic
belt, firmly enough so that the electrodes remain in
contact with the skin while exercising, but not so tight
that normal breathing is prevented. If you wear the
transmitter and belt over a light shirt, moisten the shirt
slightly at the points where the electrodes touch the
shirt. The transmitter automatically transmits the heart
rate reading to the console up to a distance of about 1
m.
If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the heart-rate
reading will not appear on the display. If the electrodes
are dry, they must be moistened again. Allow the
electrodes warm up properly to ensure accurate heart
rate measurement. If there are several telemetric
heart rate measurement devices next to each other,
the distance between them should be at least 1.5 m.
Similarly, if there is only one receiver and several
transmitters in use, only one person with a transmitter

should be within transmission range. The transmitter is
switched to an active state only when it is being used for
measurement. Sweat and other moisture can, however,
keep the transmitter in an active state and waste battery
energy. Therefore it is important to dry the electrodes
carefully after use.
When selecting training attire, please note that some
fibers used in clothes (e.g. polyester, polyamide) create
static electricity, which may prevent reliable heart
rate measurement. Please note that a mobile phone,
television and other electrical appliances form an
electromagnetic field around them, which will cause
problems in heart rate measurement.
First find your maximum heart rate i.e. where the rate
doesn't increase with added effort. If you don't know
your maximum heart rate, please use the following
formula as a guide:
220 - AGE
These are average values and the maximum varies from
person to person. The maximum heart-rate diminishes
on average by one point per year. If you belong to a risk
group, ask a doctor to measure your maximum heart
rate for you.
We have defined three different heart-rate zones to help
you with targeted training.
50-60 % of maximum heart-rate
BEGINNER:
Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents
and those who haven't exercised for a long time.
Three sessions a week of at least a half-hour each is
recommended. Regular exercise considerably improves
beginners' respiratory and circulatory performance and
you will quickly feel your improvement.
60-70 % of maximum heart-rate
TRAINER:
Perfect for improving and maintaining fitness. Even
reasonable effort develops the heart and lungs effectively,
training for a minimum of 30 minutes at least three
times a week. To improve your condition still further,
increase either frequency or effort, but not both at the
same time!
70-80 % of maximum heart-rate
ACTIVE TRAINER:
Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and
presupposes long-endurance workouts.
