SEAT HEIGHT

The seat height should be set so that the arch of
the foot reaches the pedal with the leg almost
straight and the pedal at its lowest point. To raise
or lower the seat: First turn the locking knob one
turn counter-clockwise. Then pull the locking
knob outwards, so that the seat tube can be moved
freely up and down. Once the height is right, let go
of the knob and the seat locks into place. Turn the
locking knob clockwise to tighten.
Always make sure that the locking knob is
N O T E !
properly fastened before starting to exercise!
The scale on the seat tube helps you remember
the seat height that suits you best. The seat can be
inclined forward or backward by turning the green
adjustment ring below the saddle. The seat inclines
forward when the ring is turned counter-clockwise,
and back when the ring is turned clockwise. A
correctly inclined seat enhances your training
comfort. Do not try to adjust seat inclination when
you're sitting on the seat - the ring won't turn.
HAN DL E BA R
Loosen the gray knob in front of the handlebar and
adjust the handlebar position until your training
position feels comfortable. Tighten the gray knob
carefully.
PED A L S
Select strap tightness, set the appropriate strap
hole on the retainer from below and pull forcibly
upward. Especially when the equipment is new, the
strap fastening may seem relatively tight.

When you've not exercised for a long time,
you should have your condition checked and
consult a doctor, if you are over 40, your physical
condition is poor, you suffer from a chronic illness
or have health problems, or you have injuries
to or problems in your muscles. For endurance
exercising, it's good to exercise at least 3 times a
week, but remember for your health that once
a week is better than not at all. The effects of
exercising will show after just a few weeks. If you're
very unfi t, start with a 20 minute workout. Once
your condition improves, you can train for 30-60
minutes depending on your goal.

The best training to improve your general fi tness
is properly effi cient, not too heavy and not too
easy. It's good to sweat while working out, but
important still to be able to talk comfortably. This
type of exercise is called aerobic or endurance
exercise and your body produces the required
energy by burning body fat with the aid of oxygen.
This in turn leads to a reduction in fat tissue. No
matter what your goal, you'll get the best results
by training at the right level of effort, and the best
measure is your own heart rate. First fi nd your
maximum heart rate i.e. where the rate doesn't
increase with added effort. If you don't know your
maximum heart rate, please use the following
formula as a guide:
2 0 8 - 0, 7 X AG E
This is an average value and the maximum varies
from person to person. The maximum heart-rate
diminishes on average by one point per year. If you
belong to one of the risk groups mentioned earlier,
ask a doctor to measure your maximum heart rate
for you. We have defi ned three different heart-rate
zones to help you with targeted training.
•
Beginner 50-60 % of maximum heart rate
Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents
and those who haven't exercised for a long time.
Three sessions a week of at least a half-hour each
is recommended. Regular exercise considerably
improves beginners' respiratory and circulatory
performance and you will quickly feel your
improvement.
•
Trainer 60-70 % of maximum heart rate
Perfect for improving and maintaining fi tness.
Even reasonable effort develops the heart and lungs
effectively, training for a minimum of 30 minutes
at least three times a week. To improve your
condition still further, increase either frequency or
effort, but not both at the same time!
