Workout Tips
•
Before and after an exercise session, gently
stretch your lower body and back to help prevent
stiffness or soreness.
•
At the beginning of an exercise session, take
several minutes to bring your heart rate into your
target zone (shown in Diagram A on the other side
of this card).
•
To display your heart rate, use both hands to grasp
the touch-sensitive grips.
•
To pause during your workout, stop pedaling. Pause
mode has a 10-minute time limit.
•
Incorporate a cool-down period into your exercise
session to help lower your heart rate and minimize
muscle stiffness and soreness.
