AEROBIC EXERCISE

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

IMPROVESTHElTNESSOFYOURLUNGSANDHEARTYOURBODYSMOSTIMPORTANTMUSCLE!EROBICEXERCISElTNESSISPROMOTED

by any activity that uses your large muscle -arms, legs, or buttock, for example. Your heart beats quickly and you breathe

deeply. An aerobic exercise should be 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 train-

ing 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 less amount of reps. And as always consult your physician before

beginning any exercise program.

MUSCLE CHART

CYCLE

The exercise routine that is performed on the cycle 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.

7. 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.

8. WARM-UP AND COOL-DOWN

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Each workout should include the following three parts:

A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your body

temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.

Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 minutes of exercising with your heart rate in your training zone. (Note:
