HANDLEBARS Place the palm of your hands directly on the grip pulse handlebars. Both hands must grip the bars for your heart rate to register. It takes 5 consecutive heart beats (15-20 seconds) for your heart rate to register. When gripping the pulse handlebars, do not grip tightly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate your blood pressure. Keep a loose, cupping hold. You may experience an erratic readout if consistently holding the grip pulse handlebars.
ALWAYS CONSULT YOURPHYSICIAN BEFORE BEGINNING ANEXERCISE PROGRAM. HOWOFTEN? (Frequency of Workouts) The American Heart Association recommends that you exercise at least 3 to 4 flays per week to maintain cardiovascular fitness. If you ha ve other goals such as weight or fat loss, you will achieve your goal faster with more frequent exercise. Whether it's 3 flays or 6 flays, remember that your ultimate goal should be to make exercise a fifetime habit.
Whatis TargetHeartRateZone? Target Heart Rate Zone tells you the number of times per minute your heart needs to beat to achieve a desired workout effect. It is represented as a percentage of the maximum number of times your heart can beat per minute. Target Zone will vary for each individual, depending on age, current level of conditioning, and personal fitness goals. The American Heart Association recommends working-out at a Target Heart Rate Zone of between 60% and 75% of your maximum heart rate.
STRETCHFIRST Before using your product, it is best to take a few minutes to do a few gentle stretching exercises. Stretching prior to exercise will improve flexibility and reduce chances of exercise related injury. Ease into each of these stretches with a slow gentle motion. Do not stretch to the point of pain. Make sure not to bounce while doing these stretches. I.
WARMLIP The first 2 to 5 minutes of a workout should be devoted to warming up. The warm-up will limber your muscles and prepare them for more strenuous exercise. Make sure that you warm-up on your product at a slow pace. The warm up should gradually bring your heart rate into your Target Heart Rate Zone. COOLDOWN Never stop exercising suddenly! A cool-flown period of 3-5 minutes allows your heart to readjust to the decreased demand.

ARETHESOUNDS MYBIKEMAKES NORMAL? Our bikes are some of the quietest available because they use belt drives and friction free magnetic resistance. Weuse the highest grade bearings and belts to minimize noise. However, because the resistance system itself is so quiet, you will occasionally hear other slight mechanical noises. Unlike older, louder technologies, there are no fans, friction belts, or alternator noises to mask these sounds on our bikes.
WHAT KINDOFROUTINE MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED? Weuse sealed bearings throughout our bikes so lubrication is not needed. Themost important maintenance step is to simply wipe your perspiration off the bike after each use. HOWDOI CLEAN MYBIKE? Clean with soap and water cleaners only. Never use solvents on plastic parts. Cleanliness of your bike and its operating environment will keep maintenance problems and service calls to a minimum.
