USING YOUR DUAL TRAINER
ALWAYS
consult a physician before beginning any exercise program. Ask your doctor to evaluate
your present fitness level and determine the exercise program that is most appropriate for your
particular age and/or physical condition.
TO USE THE DUAL TRAINER:
Stand on the unit, making sure that each foot is securely positioned on each Pedal and that you have
sure footing on the Pedal pads (Do not use this machine barefoot or with socks only.) Firmly grasp the
Poles in each hand, and using the Poles only, move them back and forth so that the machine begins
to pedal in a forward fashion. Once it is fully in motion, you can begin using your leg muscles to as-
sist in pedaling. It is strongly recommended that you do not attempt to use this machine in a reverse
direction.
You can also mount the Dual Trainer like a bicycle. With your body securely centered on the seat, use
your leg muscles to move the pedals.
NEVER
attempt to suddenly stop pedaling or switch the direction of pedaling while moving, as
serious injury and/or severe damage to the unit can occur, for which Pure Global is not liable.
TO INCREASE THE RESISTANCE ON YOUR DUAL TRAINER:
Use the Tension Control Knob to adjust the resistance on the Dual Trainer. Turn the knob towards the
“+” to increase the resistance and “-” to decrease the resistance.
Warm-up
Before every training you should warm-up for 5~10 minutes. Here you can do some stretching and
training with low resistance.
Cool down
To introduce an effective cool-down of the muscles and the metabolism, the intensity should be
drastically decreased during the last 5~10 minutes, but a prolonged exercise session should not be
suddenly and completely stopped. Stretching is also helpful for the prevention of muscle aches.
Training session
The time-length of your training session can be calculated with the following rule of thumb:
Daily training session: approx. 10 min. per unit
2-3 x per week: approx. 30 min. per unit
1-2 x per week: approx. 60 min. per unit
