7. Exercise instructions
Many different factors have to be considered when you plan your training program. If you have been
physically inactive for a long time or if you suffer from any kind of illness you need to consult with a physician
before you plan your exercise program.
Intensity
• To achieve the best possible results the right intensity needs to be selected, this is based on your pulse.
This equation is often used to calculate your maximum pulse:
Max pulse = 220 – Your age
• During training your pulse should be between 60% and 85% of your maximum pulse (see the pulse chart
at the end of the instruction manual).
• For the first few weeks of exercise your workout pulse should be 60% of your maximum pulse.
• When you have improved your values and have been training for a few weeks you can allow your workout
pulse to increase up to 85% of your maximum pulse.
