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.

3 times a week for 30 minutes each day.

You may not be able to complete 30 minutes of exercise at first. Gradually try to increase your workout time with each following session until you reach 30 minutes.

For optimal results, combine your workouts with strength training and a sensible diet plan.

Schedule workouts in advance. Try to work out even when you do not want to.
