HOW TO USE THE HEART RATE MONITOR

HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR

The heart rate monitor has two components: a chest strap and a sensor unit (see the drawing below). Insert the tab on one end of the chest strap into one end of the sensor unit, as shown in the inset drawing. Press the end of the sensor unit under the buckle on the chest strap. The tab should be flush with the front of the sensor unit.

The heart rate monitor should be under your clothes, tight against your skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the logo on the sensor unit is facing forward and is right-side-up.

Pull the sensor unit away from your body a few inches and locate the two electrode areas on the inner side (the electrode areas are covered by shallow ridges). Using saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution, wet both electrode areas. Return the sensor unit to a position against your chest.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

???Dry the heart rate monitor after each use. The heart rate monitor is activated when you wet the electrode areas and put on the heart rate monitor; the heart

rate monitor shuts off when it is removed and the electrode areas are dried. If the heart rate monitor is not dried after each use, the battery may be drained prematurely.

???Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place. Do not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag or other container that may trap moisture.

???Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct sun- light for extended periods of time or to temperatures above 122?? F (50?? C) or below 14?? F (-10?? C).

???Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit when using or storing the heart rate monitor.

???Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth???never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. Hand wash and air dry the heart rate monitor.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the heart rate monitor does not function properly, try the suggestions below.

???Make sure that you are wearing the heart rate monitor as described at the left. Note: If the heart rate monitor does not function when positioned as described, move it slightly lower or higher on your chest.

???Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution to wet the two electrode areas on the sensor unit. If heart rate readings do not appear until you begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.

???Position yourself near the console. For the console to display heart rate readings, the user must be within arm???s length of the console.

???The heart rate monitor is designed to work with people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate reading problems may be caused by medical condi- tions such as premature ventricular contractions (pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.

???The operation of the heart rate monitor can be affected by magnetic interference caused by high power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that this is a problem, try relocating the elliptical.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physi- cian. This is especially important for persons over age 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.

The heart rate monitor is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The heart rate monitor is intended only as an exercise aid in determin- ing heart rate trends in general.

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician. Remember, proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for successful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten- sity is the key to achieving results. You can use your heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near- est ten years). The three numbers listed above your age define your ???training zone.??? The lowest number is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat???To burn fat effectively, you must exer- cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your heart rate near the middle number in your training zone.

Aerobic Exercise???If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up???Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch- ing and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise???Exercise for 20 to 30 min- utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise???never hold your breath.

Cooling Down???Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch- ing. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exer- cise, you may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
