What to Wear
Wear rubber-soled athletic shoes. You will need the appropriate clothes for exercise that allow you to move freely.
How Often Should You Exercise
Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain or tightness in your chest, become short of
breath, or feel faint. Contact your doctor before you use the machine again. Use the values calculated or measured by the machine’s
computer for reference purposes only. The heart rate displayed on the console is an approximation and should be used for reference
only.
• 3 times a week for 30 minutes each day.
• Schedule workouts in advance and try to follow the schedule.
