CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following general guidelines will help you to planyour exercise program. Remember that proper nutri-tion and adequate rest are essential for successfulresults.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen yourcardiovascular system, the key to achieving thedesired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.The proper intensity level can be found by using yourheart rate as a guide.
The chart below shows recommended heart rates forfat burning, maximum fat burning, and cardiovascular(aerobic) exercise.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your agenear the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off tothe nearest ten years). Next, look above your age andfind the three numbers in light grey boxes. The threenumbers are your Òtraining zone.Ó The lowest numberis the recommended heart rate for fat burning; themiddle number is the recommended heart rate formaximum fat burning; the highest number is the rec-ommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time.During the first few minutes of exercise, your bodyuses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-
gy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise doesyour body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. Ifyour goal is to burn fat, adjust your pace until yourheart rate is near the lowest number in your trainingzone as you exercise.
Maximum Fat Burning
For increased fat burning, adjust your pace until yourheart rate is near the middle number in your trainingzone as you exercise.
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-tem, your exercise must be Òaerobic.Ó Aerobic exerciseis activity that requires large amounts of oxygen forprolonged periods of time. This increases the demandon the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on thelungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,adjust your pace until your heart rate is near the high-est number in your training zone.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure yourheart rate, firstexercise for atleast four min-utes. Then, stopexercising andplace two fin-gers on yourwrist as shown.Take a six-sec-ond heartbeatcount, and multi-ply the result by 10 to find your heart rate. For exam-ple, if your six-second heartbeat count is 14, yourheart rate is 140 beats per minute. (A six-secondcount is used because your heart rate will drop rapidlywhen you stop exercising.)
Adjust your pace until your heart rate is at the desiredlevel.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three parts:
A warm-up, lasting 5 to 10 minutes. Begin with slow,controlled stretches, and progress to more rhythmicstretches to increase the body temperature, heart rate,and circulation in preparation for strenuous exercise.(Refer to SUGGESTED STRETCHES on page 13.)
WARNING: Before beginning this or any exer-cise program, consult your physician. This isespecially important for persons over the ageof 35 or persons with pre-existing healthproblems.
MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING

HOW TO REPLACE THE BATTERIES
If the display of the monitor becomes dim, the batteriesshould be replaced. Push on the battery drawer andthen pull it open. Remove the old batteries and inserttwo new 1,5V batteries into the battery drawer.

HOW TO LUBRICATE THE SPORT RIDER
Every three months, a small amount of light multi-pur-pose oil should be applied to the SPORT RIDER. Applya few drops of oil between the axle caps or acorn nutsand the frame in the locations shown at the right. Makesure to apply oil to both sides of the SPORT RIDER.

ADJUSTMENT AND OPERATION
We strongly recommend that you begin every exercise session in this posi-tion. As a warm-up, it provides a balanced workout, distributing the empha-sis between upper and lower body. Vary emphasis by pulling more with thearms or pushing more with the legs. Keep your back vertical and upright atall times. You should also vary your hand grip to target certain musclegroups. For example, a wide overhand grip will target your shoulders; aclose overhand grip (shown) will target your triceps; and a close underhandgrip will target your biceps.
Muscles affected: All Major Muscle Groups

ADJUSTING THE SEAT
The position of theseat can be adjust-ed to accommo-date differentusers. To adjust theseat, loosen theknob under theseat, move the seatto the desired posi-tion, and retightenthe knob. To deter-mine if the seat is properly adjusted, sit on the seatand pull the handlebar as close as possible to yourstomach. Your legs should be almost straight, but yourknees should not be locked.
PROPER EXERCISE FORM
Learning how to properly use the SPORT RIDER isvital to the success of your exercise program. On thefollowing pages are photographs of the positions thatyou can use to get the maximum benefit from theSPORT RIDER.
In addition, we offer the following tips to help you getthe most from your exercise routine:
¥ Always start each exercise session in the standard workout position to warm up.
¥ You should be able to feel yourself pivot or bendfrom the hip, not from the back. DonÕt round yourback as the bar moves forward.
¥ Always place the ball of each foot in the centre ofeach pedal.
¥ Always bring the handlebar as close to your stom-ach or rib cage as possible. If you are new to exer-cise, donÕt extend the bar too far forward for thefirst few weeks of your exercise program. As yourback becomes stronger and more flexible, allowthe handlebar to travel farther forward forincreased range of motion.
¥ Change grip positions and toe positions often toadd variety and balance to each workout.
¥ Your thumbs can be positioned next to the first fin-ger or wrapped around the handlebar. Changethumb positions during each workout for greaterforearm endurance.
