PEDALS
Screw the pedals into the crank arms. Screw the
left pedal (marked L for left-hand thread) into

EXERCISE LEVEL

Working out using an exercise cycle is excellent
aerobic exercise, the principle being that the
exercise should be suitably light, but of long
duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving
the body's maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn
improves endurance and fitness. The ability of the
body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent on
its oxygen uptake capacity. Aerobic exercise should
above all be pleasant. You should perspire, but you
should not get out of breath during the workout.
You must, for example, be able to speak and not
just pant while pedaling. You should exercise at
least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time, to
reach a basic fitness level. Maintaining this level
requires a few exercise sessions each week. Once
the basic condition has been reached, it is easily
improved, simply by increasing the number of
exercise sessions. Exercise is always rewarding for
weight loss, because it is the only way of increasing
the energy spent by the body. This is why it is
always worthwhile to combine regular exercise
with a healthy diet. A dieter should exercise daily
- at first 30 minutes or less at a time, gradually
increasing the daily workout time to one hour.
You should start slowly at a low pedaling speed
and low resistance, because strenuous exercise
may subject the heart and circulatory system to
excessive strain. As fitness improves, resistance and
pedaling speed can be increased gradually. Exercise
efficiency can be measured by monitoring the
pulse. The pulse meter helps you monitor your
pulse easily
