EXERCISE INSTRUCTIONS Beginning How to start your exercise will vary from person to person. If you have not exercised for a long period of time, have been inactive for a while, or are severely overweight, you must start slowly, and gradually increasing your exercise time by a few minutes each session. Pair your exercise routine with a nutritious diet to help you lose weight and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Aerobic Fitness Aerobic exercise is simply defined as any sustained activity that increases the supply of oxygen to your muscles via the blood pumped by your heart. With regular exercise, your cardiovascular system will become stronger and more efficient. Your recovery rate, the time it takes for your heart to reach its normal resting level, will also decrease. Those new to exercise should exercise no more than every other day to start. Once you build your physical endurance, you can exercise up to 6 days per week. Always take at least one day off per week. Exercising in your target zone To ensure that your heart is its target zone, you need to be able to take your pulse. If you do not have a pulse monitor, you will need to locate the pulse in your carotid artery. This is situated in the side of the neck and can be felt by using the index and middle fingers. Simply count the number of beats you feel in 10 seconds and then multiply by six to get your pulse rate. This should be taken before you start to exercise for easy reference. Warm Up This stage allows your body to gradually adjust to the increased demand of your heart by getting your blood flowing. This phase will also reduce the risk of cramp and muscle injury. It is advised to do a few of the 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! Cool Down This stage is to let your cardiovascular system and muscles wind down. Start by reducing the tempo of your workout and continuing for approximately 5 minutes. Next, repeat the warm-up phase by doing the stretching exercises again, and remember, do not force your muscles into a stretch! 8

Rotate your head to the left for one count to feel the pull on the right side of your neck, then drop your head to your chest for one count. Repeat 2-3 times. Toe Touch Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your back and shoulders relax as you stretch toward your toes. Reach as far as you can and hold for 15 counts. Shoulder Lift Lift your right shoulder up towards your ear for one count. Relax, then repeat for the left shoulder. Repeat 3-4 times. Side Stretch Open both arms to the side and gently lift them above your head. Reach your right arm as high as you can for one count, gently stretching the muscles of the stomach and lower back. Repeat the action with your left arm. Repeat 3-4 times. 9

ADJUSTMENT INSTRUCTIONS RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT To ensure smooth and efficient cycling motions, the belt tension braking system on your Folding Recumbent Bike has been pre-tensioned by our factory during production. To adjust the tension during use, turn the Tension Knob (No. 11) clockwise to increase the tension. Turn the Tension Knob (No. 11) counter-clockwise to decrease the level of tension. LEVELING THE CYCLE For security and stability, your Folding Recumbent Bike has a factory welded frame and once properly assembled, should not need further alignment. However, in the interest of safety, please always ensure that your Folding Recumbent Bike is positioned on a solid, flat surface. If necessary, use a rubber mat underneath to reduce the possibility of slipping while in use. If you need to make adjustments in order to level your bike, simply twist the end of either of the Adjustable End Caps (No. 3a) on the Rear Stabilizer (No. 3) to compensate for uneven floors. 11
