Tension Adjustment
This stage should last for a minimum of 12 minutes though most people start at about
15-20 minutes
The assembly of your strider is now complete. When you try it for the first time, you should
adjust the tension to the correct level before you begin a full workout.
For minute tension adjustment, simply use the tension adjustment knob (21) found at the top
center. Using this adjustment knob to vary intensity of workout when you exercise can change
the tension level
3. The Cool Down Phase
This stage is to let your Cardio-vascular System and muscles wind down. This is a repeat of the
warm up exercise e.g. reduce your tempo, continue for approximately 5 minutes. The stretching
exercises should now be repeated, again remembering not to force or jerk your muscles into the
stretch.
As you get fitter you may need to train longer and harder. It is advisable to train at least three
times a week, and if possible space your workouts evenly throughout the week.
MUSCLE TONING
To tone muscle while on your Magnetic cycle you will need to have the resistance set quite high.
This will put more strain on our leg muscles and may mean you cannot train for as long as you
would like. If you are also trying to improve your fitness you need to alter your training program.
You should train as normal during the warm up and cool down phases, but towards the end of
the exercise phase you should increase resistance making your legs work harder. You will have
to reduce your speed to keep your heart rate in the target zone.
WEIGHT LOSS
The important factor here is the amount of effort you put in. The harder and longer you work the
more calories you will burn. Effectively this is the same as if you were training to improve your
fitness, the difference is the goal.
