low pedaling speed and low resistance, because
for an overweight person strenuous exercise
may subject the heart and circulatory system to
excessive strain. As fitness improves, resistance
and pedaling speed can be increased gradually.
HEART RATE
No matter what your goal, you'll get the best
results by training at the right level of effort, and
the best measure is your own heart rate.
HEART RATE MEASUREMENT WITH HANDGRIp
SENSORS
Heart rate is measured from the hands using the
sensors located on the handlebars. The sensors
measure electric impulses, which are formed
when a person's heart beats. Measurement
is started by touching both handlebar sensors
simultaneously. To ensure reliable heart rate
measurement, skin must be slightly moist and
skin contact with sensors must be continuous.
If skin is too dry or too wet, the heart rate
measurement operation from the hands is less
reliable. Try to keep your upper body and palms
relaxed and still.
TELEMETRIC HEART RATE MEASUREMENT
The most reliable heart rate measurement is
achieved with a telemetric device, in which the
electrodes of the transmitter fastened to the
chest transmit the pulses from the heart to the
console by means of an electromagnetic field.
If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please
NOTE!
consult a physician before using a wireless heart
rate monitor.
If you want to measure your heart rate this
way during your workout, moisten the grooved
electrodes on the transmitter belt with saliva or
water. Fasten the transmitter just below the chest
with the elastic belt, firmly enough so that the
electrodes remain in contact with the skin while
exercising, but not so tight that normal breathing
is prevented. If you wear the transmitter and belt
over a light shirt, moisten the shirt slightly at the
points where the electrodes touch the shirt. The
transmitter automatically transmits the heart rate
reading to the console up to a distance of about
1 m.
If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the heart-
rate reading will not appear on the display. If
the electrodes are dry, they must be moistened
again. Allow the electrodes warm up properly to
ensure accurate heart rate measurement. If there
are several telemetric heart rate measurement
devices next to each other, the distance between
them should be at least 1.5 m. Similarly, if there
is only one receiver and several transmitters in
use, only one person with a transmitter should
be within transmission range. The transmitter
is switched to an active state only when it is
being used for measurement. Sweat and other
moisture can, however, keep the transmitter in an
active state and waste battery energy. Therefore
it is important to dry the electrodes carefully after
use.
When selecting training attire, please note that
some fibers used in clothes (e.g. polyester,
polyamide) create static electricity, which may
prevent reliable heart rate measurement. Please
note that a mobile phone, television and other
electrical appliances form an electromagnetic
field around them, which will cause problems in
heart rate measurement.
First find your maximum heart rate i.e. where the
rate doesn't increase with added effort. If you
don't know your maximum heart rate, please use
the following formula as a guide:
220 - AGE
These are average values and the maximum
varies from person to person. The maximum
heart-rate diminishes on average by one point
per year. If you belong to a risk group, ask a
doctor to measure your maximum heart rate for
you.
We have defined three different heart-rate zones
to help you with targeted training.
50-60 % of maximum heart-rate
BEGINNER:
Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents
and those who haven't exercised for a long
time. Three sessions a week of at least a half-
hour each is recommended. Regular exercise
considerably improves beginners' respiratory and
circulatory performance and you will quickly feel
your improvement.
60-70 % of maximum heart-rate
TRAINER:
Perfect for improving and maintaining fitness.
Even reasonable effort develops the heart and
lungs effectively, training for a minimum of 30
minutes at least three times a week. To improve
your condition still further, increase either
frequency or effort, but not both at the same
time!
70-80 % of maximum heart-rate
ACTIVE TRAINER:
Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and
presupposes long-endurance workouts.
