MOVING
Your elliptical trainer has a pair of transport wheels built into the front of the frame. To move, firmly
grasp the back end of the frame for the Elite 4.0E and console mast for Elite 3.0E and 2.0E. Using
the transport grips on the Elite 4.0E and the console mast on the Elite 3.0E and Elite 2.0E, carefully
lift and roll.
CAUTION! Our elliptical trainers are well built and heavy, weighing up to 200lbs.! Use care and
additional help if necessary when moving.
HOW HARD?
How hard you workout is also determined by your goals. If you use your elliptical trainer to prepare
for a 5K run, you will probably work out at a higher intensity than if your goal is general fitness.
Regardless of your long term goals, always begin an exercise program at low intensity. Aerobic
exercise does not have to be painful to be beneficial! There are two ways to measure your exercise
intensity. The first is by monitoring your heart rate, and the second is by evaluating your perceived
exertion level (this is simpler than it sounds!). Note: Always consult your physician before beginning
an exercise program.
PERCEIVED EXERTION LEVEL
The second and simpler way to gauge your exercise intensity is to evaluate your perceived exertion
level. While exercising if you are too winded to maintain a conversation without gasping, you are
working out too hard. A good rule of thumb is to work to the point of exhilaration, not exhaustion. If
you cannot catch your breath, it’s time to slow down. Always be aware of other warning signs of
overexertion.
