ELEVATION SYSTEM.-
This unit has 2 levels of inclination.
Carry out the following steps to use the
different positions:
If you wish to raise the bench slightly
place the supports on the stabiliser in
the open position, Fig.8.
For maximum inclination rotate the rear
stabiliser (4) in the direction of the
arrow and this will lift it up fully, Fig.9.
USING AND BENEFITTING.-
CONDITION.
To be in good physical condition
means that one has the physical
capacity to live everyday life to the full.
Modern society has created a life-style

unanimous on the benefit of properly
selected exercise to improve physical
fitness,weight control and the ability to
relax.
WHAT EXERCISE DOES.
Regular physical exercise above a
certain minimum level and of a duration
of 15 to 20 mins becomes aerobic.
Aerobic exercise is exercise which
fundamentally
normally a continuous exercise without
any breaks. That is in addition to a
supply of sugar and fat the body
requires oxygen in the muscles.
With regular exercise the ability to take
oxygen into all the muscles in the body
increases: with better lung function,
increased pumping capacity of the
heart and better operation of the whole
blood circulation system. Clearly the
energy required to exercise burns off
kilocalories (more popularly known as
Calories).

RELATION BETWEEN EXERCISE
AND WEIGHT CONTROL.-
If one consumes more Calories that
one burns the result is a gain in
weight,if conversely one burns more
than is consumed one losses weight.At
rest our bodies burn about 70 Calories
per hour to keep the heart pumping,
the lungs operating and all other
organs functioning.
EXERCISE PROGRAMME.-
Admitting that programmes vary with
age and fitness we point out that
people of all ages have the potential to
adopt a fitness objective consultation
with a physician. The final goal is to
achieve a level of physical fitness,
weight control or rehabilitation. Your
programme should be gradual, planned

varied and safe. Our recommended is
three or five sessions of aerobic
exercise per week and lasting for about
20 - 25 minutes per session. It is
important to always warm up before
starting an exercise session. This
warm-up should last for 2-3 minutes.
This protect the muscles and prepares

The next step is to exercise for 15-20
minutes at a rhythm which leads to a
pulse rate of between 65 and 75% of
your maximum heart rate. If in good

Later, when our level of fitness has
improved we can divide the time
between both levels but taking care not
to exceed 85% (aerobic zone) and to
never reach the red zone, which
corresponds to the maximum heartbeat
rate which we must not exceed
depending on our age. Finally, it is
