PROPER USAGE
ENGLISH
WIRELESS HEART RATE
To connect your ANT+ or Bluetooth SMART heart rate device to the
console, touch and then touch HEART RATE DEVICE PAIRING.
The heart rate function on this product is not a medical device. The heart
rate reading is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate
trends in general. Please consult your physician.
When used in conjunction with a wireless chest strap or arm band, your
heart rate can be transmitted wirelessly to the unit and displayed on the
console.
WARNING!
Heart rate monitoring systems may be inaccurate. Over exercising may result
in serious injury or death. If you feel faint, stop exercising immediately.
DRAG RATIO
Drag ratio measures how much the flywheel is slowing down to
determine how fast or slow the “boat” is. The rate of deceleration is
called the drag ratio. For each stroke, the console uses the drag ratio
to determine how much work is being done based on the speed of
the flywheel. In this way, true effort is calculated regardless of resis-
tance setting. This self-calibration is what allows the user to compare
their performance on different indoor rowers.
Different indoor rowers can have different drag ratio ranges. A
resistance setting of 3 on one machine may feel like a 4 on another.
Differences in belt tension, magnet position, etc. can all affect the
drag ratio from machine to machine.
BRAKE SYSTEM
The Matrix rower utilizes magnetic resistance to set specific levels of
resistance. The resistance level setting in addition to the SPM is used
to determine the power (watts) output.
There are four phases to the rowing stroke:
1. CATCH – Grasp the handle evenly with both hands. With the seat slid forward
and the knees tucked into the chest (directly in line with the heel of the foot),
stretch the arms out in front and lean slightly forward from the hips.
2. DRIVE – Press rmly against the foot plates until the legs are fully extended, but
not locked. Let the arms come with you and bring the torso to 90 degrees.
3. FINISH – Pull the arms into the abdomen with legs fully extended,
and lean back with the torso slightly beyond 90 degrees.
4. RECOVERY – Extend the arms, bend the knees, and lean forward
from the hips and slid forward on the seat.
All four phases should be performed smoothly and in a continuous manner.
GETTING STARTED
Read the Owner’s Manual before setting up the Matrix Rower. Place the unit
where it will be used before beginning the setup procedure.
CHOOSING A LOCATION
The site should be well-lit and well-ventilated. Place the Rower on a structurally solid at surface
and kept a few feet from the wall or any equipment. If the site has a heavy plush carpet, to
protect the carpeting and machinery, you should place a rigid plastic base under the unit.
Please do not place the Rower in an area of high humidity, such as the vicinity of a
steam room, indoor pool, or sauna. Exposure to intensive water vapour or chlorine
could adversely affect the electronics, as well as other parts of the machine.
BEFORE YOUR FIRST ROW
• Consult your physician. Be sure that it is not dangerous for you to undertake a strenuous exercise program.
• Improper technique such as extreme layback or jumping off the seat can result in injury.
• Start each workout with several minutes of easy rowing for a warm-up.
• Start your exercise program gradually. Row no more than 5 minutes
the rst day to let your body adjust to the new exercise.
• Gradually increase your rowing time and intensity over the rst two weeks. Do not row
at full power until you are comfortable with the technique and have rowed for at least a
week. Like any physical activity, if you increase the volume and intensity too rapidly, fail
to warm up properly, or use poor technique, you will increase the risk of injury.
• The best resistance setting for a great cardiovascular workout is in the range of
3-5. Rowing with the resistance setting too high can be detrimental to your training
program because it may reduce your output and increase your risk of injury.
• Aim for a stroke rate (spm) of between 24 and 30 spm (strokes per minute).
