Training frequency
Sessions per week three
Sessions per week four
Following these 4 weeks of beginner's exercising, the blocks can
be extended to 10 minutes of continuous rowing without a break.
If 3 weekly sessions of 20-30 minutes are preferred (at later sta-
ges), a free day should be planned between each two days with
exercise.
Accompanying gymnastic exercises
Gymnastik exercises are an ideal complement to rowing. Always
do warming-up exercises before starting rowing. Activate the cir-
culation with a few minutes of easy rowing (10-15 strokes per
minute). Stretching exercises should then be carried out before
the real rowing exercise is started. Easy rowing should also be
done at the end of the session, with further stretching exercises
during the cooling-down period.
Instructions for exercising with the KETTLER STROKER
Besides rowing, the KETTLER STROKER is also suitable for exerci-
ses designed to increase general fitness, but with special empha-
sis on muscle-building. In order to achieve maximum benefit from
the KETTLER STROKER, the following points should be noted:
1. beginners should avoid exercising with high resistances;
2. use only resistances which do not cause strained breathing;
3. carry out all movements smoothly and regularly - not in sud-
den jerks;
4. do not exercise with the back curved upwards or with roun-
ded shoulders;
5. always remember, that muscles and strength increase relati-
vely quickly, i.e. at a pace which tendons, ligaments and
joints cannot always follow.
In brief: Increase resistance only gradually in the course of regu-
lar training.
Some methods of exercising
For general fitness, a method of exercising which emphasizes
both strength and stamina is recommended. This means that exer-
cises at low resistance levels (approx. 40-50% of personal maxi-
mum strength"*) should be repeated 15-20 times.
(*Here, the term "maximum strength"*) means the maximum
strength which a person has to concentrate in order to raise a
heavy weight once.

S.* = Serie
Always warm up before exercising. Rest for approx. 60seconds
after each series of repeats, and use these intervals for loosening
and stretching exercises.
Exercise 2-3 times per week with your KETTLER STROKER and
make use of every opportunity for alternative forms of exercise
such as walking, cycling, swimming etc. You will then find that
regular exercising increases your physical fitness and your gene-
ral sense ot wellbeing.
