CONSOLE FUNCTIONS

EXERCISE INSTRUCTIONS

Using your Trojan Shape 240 Exercise Bike, provides you with several benets, it will improve your physical

tness, tone muscle and in conjunction with a calorie controlled diet, help you lose weight.

THE WARM UP PHASE

This stage helps get the blood owing around the body and the muscles working properly. It will also reduce

the risk of cramp and muscle injury. It is advisable to do a few stretching exercises as shown below. Each

stretch should be held for approximately 30 seconds, do not force or jerk your muscles into a stretch.

If it hurts, STOP.

THE EXERCISE PHASE

This is the stage where you put the effort in. After regular use, the muscles in your legs will become

stronger. Work at your own pace, but it is very important to maintain a steady tempo throughout.

The rate of work should be sufcient to raise your heart beat into the target zone shown on the

graph below.

SIDE BENDS OUTER THIGH CALF STRETCHINNER THIGHFORWARD

BENDS

EXERCISE INSTRUCTIONS

This stage is to let your Cardiovascular System and muscles wind down. This is a repeat of the warm up

exercise i.e. reduce your tempo, continue for approximately 5 minutes. The stretching exercises should now

be repeated, again remembering not to force or jerk your muscles into the stretch.

As you get tter you may need to train longer and harder. It is advisable to train at least 3 times a week,

and if possible space your workouts evenly throughout the week.

MUSCLE TONING

To tone muscle while on the Trojan Shape 240 Exercise Bike you will need to have the resistance set

quite high. This will put more strain on your leg muscles and may mean you cannot train for as long as you

would like. If you are also trying to improve your tness, you need to alter your training program. You should

train as normal during the warm up and cool down phases, but towards the end of the exercise phase you

should increase resistance, making your legs work harder than normal. You may have to reduce your speed to

keep your heart rate in the target zone.

WEIGHT LOSS

The important factor here is the amount of effort you put in. The harder and longer you work the more

calories you will burn.

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING

The Trojan Shape 240 Exercise Bike can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Do not use

abrasives or solvents on plastic parts. Please wipe your perspiration off the Trojan Shape 240 Exercise

Bike after each use.

necessary.

TROUBLESHOOTING

FITNESS TIPS & TECHNIQUES

AEROBIC EXERCISE

Aerobic exercise is any sustained activity that sends oxygen to your muscles via your heart and lungs.

Aerobic exercise improves the tness of your lungs and heart − your body’s most important muscle. Aerobic

exercise tness is promoted by any activity that uses your large muscles (arms, legs, or buttocks, for

example). Your heart beats quickly and you breathe deeply. An aerobic exercise should form part of your

entire exercise routine.

WEIGHT TRAINING

Along with aerobic exercising which helps get rid of and keep off the excess fat that our bodies can store,

weight training is an essential part of the exercise routine process. Weight training helps tone, build and

strengthen muscle. If you are working above your target zone, you may want to do a lesser amount of reps.

Always consult your physician before beginning any exercise program.

MUSCLE CHART

The exercise routine that is performed on the Trojan Shape 240 Stationary Bike will develop the lower body

muscle group as well as condition the circulatory system and provide a good aerobic workout. These muscle

groups are highlighted on the muscle chart below.

Trapezius

Posterior

Tricep

Latissimus Dorsi

Gluteals

Hamstrings

Gastrocnemius

Trapezius

Pectoralis Major

Serratus Anterior

Biceps

Abdominal

Sartorius

Quadriceps

Tibialis

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you have been inactive for

several years, or are severely overweight, you must start slowly and increase your time on the equipment, a

few minutes per workout.

Initially, you may be able to exercise only for a few minutes in your target zone, however, your aerobic

tness will improve over the next 6 to 8 weeks. Don’t be discouraged if it takes longer. It’s important

to work at your own pace. The better your aerobic tness, the harder you will have to work to stay in your

target zone. Please remember these essentials:

• Have your doctor review your training and diet programs to advise you of a workout routine you should adopt.

• Begin your training program slowly with realistic goals that have been set by you and your doctor.

• Monitor your pulse frequently.

• Establish your target heart rate based on your age and condition.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

To maximise the benets of exercising, it is important to exercise with the proper intensity. The proper

intensity level can be found by using your heart rate as a guide. For effective aerobic exercise, your heart rate

should be maintained at a level between 65% and 85% of your maximum heart rate as you exercise. This is

known as your target zone. You can nd your target zone in the table below.

During the rst few months of your exercise program, keep your heart rate near the low end of your target

zone as you exercise. After a few months, your heart rate can be increased gradually until it is near the middle

of your target zone as you exercise.

To measure your heart rate, stop exercising but continue moving your legs or walking around and place 2

ngers on your wrist. Take a 6 second heartbeat count and multiply the results by 10 to nd your heart rate.

For example, if your 6 second heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per minute. (A 6 second

count is used because your heart rate will drop rapidly when you stop exercising).

Adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is at the proper level.
