BEFORE STARTING THIS OR ANY OTHER EXERCISE PROGRAM, CONSULT
YOUR PHYSICIAN, who should assist you in determining the target heart rate zone
appropriate for your age and physical condition. Certain exercises, programs or types
of equipment may not be appropriate for all people. This is especially important for
persons over the age of 35, pregnant women, or those with pre-existing health 
problems or balance impairments.

START OUT SLOWLY AND PROGRESS SENSIBLY. Progress at a pace that is 
comfortable for you. For best results, perform all of the exercises at the tempo 
demonstrated in the videos.

MONITOR YOUR HEART RATE WHILE YOU EXERCISE AND KEEP YOUR 
ESTIMATED PULSE RATE WITHIN YOUR TARGET HEART RATE ZONE. Follow
the instructions on page 10 in this manual regarding heart rate monitoring and how 
to determine your appropriate target heart rate zone. When used properly, the heart 
rate pulse sensors and display monitor provide a reasonably accurate estimate of your
actual heart rate. This estimate is not exact and persons with medical conditions, 
and/or a specific need for accurate heart rate monitoring, should not rely on the 
estimations provided.

DO NOT OVER EXERT YOURSELF WITH THIS OR ANY OTHER EXERCISE
PROGRAM. Listen to your body and respond to any reactions you may be having. 
You must distinguish “good” pain, like fatigue, from “bad” pain, which hurts. If you
experience any pain or tightness in your chest, an irregular heartbeat or shortness of
breath, stop exercising immediately. Consult your physician before continuing.

USE CARE WHEN STEPPING ON AND OFF EQUIPMENT.
Set up and use your unit on a solid, level, carpeted surface. Follow the instructions
demonstrated in your video and on page 11 in this manual for proper entry and exit
techniques.

– Keep children out of rooms where you have your exercise equipment.

– Store exercise equipment in a room that can be locked.

– Know exactly where your children are when you work out.

– If you have small children at home, don’t wear headphones while you work out.

– Talk to your kids about the dangers of exercise equipment.

Use the chart below and the charts on the following pages to keep track of your
progress over time. Before writing on them, make as many copies as you think you’ll
need. We suggest you keep these in a notebook. You will find it both informative and
motivational to look back at what you’ve done, and this data will help you to chart
future fitness goals as you progress. Every two weeks, measure yourself to rechart 
your progress.
