HOW TO OPERATE THE STEPPER DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE n addition, you can connect the stepper to your VCR and TV and play iFIT.com video programs (videocassettes are available separately). Video programs offer the same benefits as iFIT.com CD programs, but add the excitement of working out with a class and an instructor—the hottest new trend at health clubs.

Note: After a SPEED button is pressed, it may take several seconds for the selected speed setting to be reached. You must step at a speed of 25 steps per minute or faster for the SPEED buttons to operate. HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE The innovative stepper requires no batteries or external power source.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES The following guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. Aerobic Exercise If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood.
