CONDITIONING GUIDELINES How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you have been inactive for several years or are severely overweight, start slowly and increase your workout time gradually. Increase your workout intensity gradually by monitoring your heart rate while you exercise. Remember to follow these essentials: Have your doctor review your training and diet programs. Begin your training program slowly with realistic goals that have been set by you and your physician.
WARM-UP and COOL-DOWN Warm-Up The purpose of warming up is to prepare your body for exercise and to minimize injuries. Warm up for two to five minutes before strength training or aerobic exercising. Perform activities that raise your heart rate and warm the working muscles. Activities may include brisk walking, jogging, jumping jacks, jump rope, and running in place.
FitRiderX™ Workout Guide Important Safety Information 1. Always securely hold the handles throughout the entire workout. Do not let go of the handles until the workout is over. 2. Always keep your feet on the pedals and sit on the seat during the workout. 3. Use only accessories and attachments recommended by the manufacturer. The use of any attachments or accessories not recommended by the manufacturer will void the warranty and possibly cause serious personal injury or damage to you and the FitRiderX™.
Exercise Duration Always start your workout on the FitRiderX™ with a few minutes of slow, easy movements to help give your muscles time to stretch and flex. And make sure you drink plenty of water and have a towel nearby when exercising! If your goal is to strengthen your heart and gradually develop better stamina, we suggest that you exercise a minimum of 10 minutes a day, 3 times a week.
SQUATS: Tone and Firm your Butt and Thighs • Place your feet on the pedals and your hands on the top of the handlebars. • Pull the handlebar half way towards you and perform limited range of movements for a isolated ‘up and down’ riding movement. • This limited range of motion really isolates the contraction in your thighs and buttocks. • Focus on quads doing most of the work with arms providing minimal assistance.
SHOULDERS: Develop Shapely Shoulders • Place your feet on the pedals with your hands in an overhanded grip on the outside portion of the handlebar. • As you press your feet against the pedals, pull the handlebars up towards your chin. • Slowly return to the starting position and repeat. SEATED ABDOMINAL CRUNCH: Strengthen Abs and Entire Core • Place your feet on the pedals. Bend your upper body forward and place your hands in an overhanded grip on the top center portion of the handlebar.
Cool Down Stretches Stretching should be a key part of your exercise program since it helps increase flexibility and improve your range of motion. It is best to stretch after you’ve warmed your body up with five to ten minutes of light movements, or better, after you’ve finished your workout. As you stretch, hold each position for a minimum of 30 seconds and do not bounce while stretching. QUADRICEP STRETCH: Front of Thigh • Stand in the front of your FitRiderX™ for support.
CALF STRETCH – Back of your Lower Leg • Stand behind your FitRiderX™. • Place both hands on your FitRiderX™ seat. • Extend your right leg behind your left foot. • Slowly bend your left leg forward, keeping your right heel on the floor while pressing your hips forward. • Hold for 30 seconds, switch legs and repeat. • NOTE: To deepen the stretch, slightly bend your right knee as you bend your left leg forward.
