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
