WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF
TUNTURI EXERCISING!
Your choice shows that you really want to invest in
your well being and condition; it also shows you
really value high quality and style. With Tunturi
Fitness Equipment, you’ve chosen a high quality,
safe and motivating product as your training
partner. Whatever your goal in training, we are
certain this is the training equipment to get you
there. You’ll find information about using your
exercise equipment and what makes for efficient
training at Tunturi’s website at
WWW.TUNTURI.COM.
EXERCISING
Working out using an elliptical trainer is excellent
aerobic exercise, the principle being that the
exercise should be suitably light, but of long
duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving
the body ‘s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn
improves endurance and fi tness. The ability of the
body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent on
its oxygen-uptake capacity. Aerobic exercise should
above all be pleasant. You should perspire, but you
should not get out of breath during the workout.
You must, for example, be able to speak and not just
pant while pedaling.
You should exercise at least three times a week,
30 minutes at a time, to reach a basic fi tness level.
Maintaining this level requires a few exercise
sessions each week. Once the basic condition
has been reached, it is easily improved simply by
increasing the number of exercise sessions. Exercise
is always rewarding for weight loss, because it is
the only way of increasing the energy spent by the
body. This is why it is always worthwhile to combine
regular exercise with a healthy diet. A dieter should
exercise daily, at fi rst 30 minutes or less at a time,
gradually increasing the daily workout time to one
hour.
You should start slowly at a low pedaling speed
and low resistance, because for an overweight
person strenuous exercise may subject the heart
and circulatory system to excessive strain. As
fitness improves, resistance and pedaling speed
can be increased gradually. Exercise efficiency can
be measured by monitoring the pulse. The pulse
meter helps you monitor your pulse easily during
exercise, and thus to ensure that the exercise is
sufficiently effective but not over-strenuous. Start
your workout with slow tempo and low resistance.
Gradually increase tempo and resistance according
to your own condition. Keep your head up and neck
long in order to avoid stress on your neck, shoulders
and back. Keep also your back straight. Make sure
that your feet are centered on the foot pedals and
that your hips, knees, ankles and toes are facing
forward. Keep your body weight centered over your
lower body regardless of whether you lean forward
or stand upright. Stop your workout by gradually
decreasing tempo and resistance.
Don’t forget to stretch afterwards. To strengthen
cardiovascular system, maintain low resistance but
high tempo. Exercising with higher resistance and
slow tempo strengthens correspondingly your back
and hips.
HEART RATE
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.
The C80 meter has a heart rate receiver compatible
with Polar equipment, so you can also use Polar
uncoded heart rate transmitter belts for heart rate
measurement.
NOTE! If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please
consult a physician before using a heart rate
transmitter belt.
The most reliable heart rate measurement is
achieved with a telemetric device, in which the
electrodes of the transmitter fastened to the chest
transmit the pulses from the heart to the console
by means of an electromagnetic field. If you want
to measure your heart rate this way during your
workout, moisten the grooved electrodes on the
transmitter belt with saliva or water. Fasten the
transmitter just below the chest with the elastic
belt, firmly enough so that the electrodes remain
in contact with the skin while exercising, but not so
tight that normal breathing is prevented. If you wear
the transmitter and belt over a light shirt, moisten
the shirt slightly at the points where the electrodes
touch the shirt. The transmitter automatically
transmits the heart rate reading to the console up to
a distance of about 1 m.
If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the heart-
rate reading will not appear on the display. If the
electrodes are dry, they must be moistened again.
Allow the electrodes warm up properly to ensure
accurate heart rate measurement. If there are several
