EXERCISE INSTRUCTIONS

Exercise offers various benefits; it will improve fitness, muscle tone and when used in conjunction with a calorie

controlled diet, it will help you to lose weight.

TRAINING GUIDELINES

Exercise is one of the most important factors in the overall health of an individual. Listed among its benefits are:

Increased capacity for physical work (strength endurance)

Increased cardiovascular (heart and arteries/veins) and respiratory efficiency

Decreased risk of coronary heart disease

Changes in body metabolism, e.g. los ing weight

Delaying the physiological effects of age

Physiological effects, e.g. reduction in stress, increase in self-confidence, etc.

Basic Components of Physical Fitness

There are 4 all encompassing components of physical fitness and we need to briefly define and clarify their roles:

STRENGTH

Is the capacity of a muscle to exert a force against resistance. Strength contributes to power and speed and is of great

importance to a majority of sports people.

MUSCULAR ENDURANCE

Is the capacity to exert a force repeatedly over a period of time, e.g. it is the ability of your legs to carry you 10 Km

without stopping.

FLEXIBI LITY

Is the range of motion about a joint. Improving flexibility involves the stretching of muscles and tendons to maintain

or increase suppleness, and provides increased resistance to muscle injury or soreness.

CARDIO-RESPIRATORY ENDURANCE

Is the mos t essential component of phys ical fitness. It is the efficient functioning of the heart and lungs.

AEROBIC FITNESS

The largest amount of oxygen that you can us e per minute during exercise is called your maximum oxygen uptake

(MVo2). This is often referred to as your aerobic capacity

OXYGEN UPTAKE

The effort that you can exert over a prolonged period of time is limited by your ability to deliver oxygen to

the working muscles. Regular vigorous exercise produces a training effect that can increas e your aerobic capacity by

as much as 20 to 30%. An increased MVO2 indicates an increased ability of the heart to pump

blood, of the lungs to ventilate oxygen and of the muscles to take up oxygen.

ANAEROBIC TRAINING

This means “without oxygen” and is the output of energy when the oxygen supply is insufficient to meet

the body’s long term ener gy dema nds. (For exa mple, 100 meter sprint).

THE TRAINING THRESHOLD

This is the minimum level of exercise which is required to produce significant improvements in any

physical fitness parameter.

PROGRESSION

As your become more fit, a higher intensity of exercise is required to create an overload and therefore provide

continuous improvement

Quantum

TRAINING GUIDELINES (cont’d)

OVERLOAD

This is where you exercise at a level above that which can be carried out comfortably. The intensity, duration

and frequency of exercise should be above the training threshold and should be gradually increased as the body

adapts to the increasing demands. As your fitness level improves, the training threshold should be raised.

Working through your program and gradually increasing the overload factor is important.

SPECIFICS

Different forms of exercise produce different results. The type of exercise that is carried out is specific both to

the muscle groups being used and to the energy s ource involved.

There is little transfer of the effects of exercise, i.e. from strength training to cardiovascular fitness. That is why

it is important to have an exercise program tailored to your specific needs.

REVERSIBILITY

If you stop exercising or do not do your program often enough, you will lose thebenefits you have gained.

Regular workouts are the key to success.

WARM UP

Every exercis e program should start with a warm up where the body is prepared for the effort to come. It should

be gentle and preferably use the muscles to be involved later.

Stretching should be included in both your warm up and cool down, and should be performed after 3-5 minutes

of low intensity aerobic activity or callisthenic type exercise.

WARM DOWN OR COOL DOWN

This involves a gradual decrease in the intensity of the exercise session. Following exercise, a large supply of

blood remains in the working muscles. If it is not returned promptly to the central circulation, pooling of blood

may occur in the muscles.

HEART RATE

As you exercise, the rate at which your heart beat increases. This is often used as a measure of the required

intensity of exercise. You need to exercise hard enough to condition your circulatory system, and increase your

pulse rate, but not enough to strain your heart.

Your initial level of fitness is important in developing an exercise program for you. If you are starting off you

can get a good training effect with a heart rate of 110-120 beats per minute (BPM). If you are more fit, you will

need a higher threshold of stimulation.

To begin with, you should exercise at a level that elevates your heart rate to about 65 to 70% of your maximum.

If you find this is too easy, you may want to increase it, but it is better to lean on the conservative side.

As a rule of thumb, the maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age. As you increase in age, your heart, like other

muscles, loses some of its efficiency. Some of its natural loss is won back as fitness improves. The following

table is a guide to those who are “starting fitness”.

Pulse Count

The pulse count (on your wrist or carotid artery in the neck, taken with two index fingers) is done for ten

seconds, taken a few seconds after you stop exercising. This is for two reasons: (a) 10 seconds is long

enough for accuracy, (b) the pulse count is to approximate your BPM rate at the time you are exercising.

Since heart rate slows as you recover, a longer count is not as accurate.

The target is not a magic number, but a general guide. If you’re above average fitness, you may work quite

comfortably a little above that suggested for your age group.

The following table is a guide to those who are keeping fit. Here we are working at about 80% of maximum.

Don’t push yourself too hard to reach the figures on this table. It can be very uncomfortable if you overdo it.

Let it happen naturally as you work through your program. Remember, the target is a guide - not a rule, a

little above or below is just fine. Besides, heart rate measure through the devices on this machine including

the wireless receiver is not exact to a single beat of your heart but rather a rough guide. Do not use this

heart rate reading for medical purpose.

Two final comments:(1) don’t be concerned with da y to day variations in your pulse rate, being under

pressure or not enough sleep can affect it;(2) your pulse rate is a guide, don’t become a slave to it.

Muscle Soreness

For the first week or so, this may be the only indication you have that you are on an exercise program. This,

of course, does depend on your overall fitness level. A confirmation that you are on the correct program is a

very slight soreness in most major muscle groups. This is quite normal and will disappear in a matter of

days. If you experience major discomfort, you may be on a program that is too advanced or you have

increased your program too rapidly.

If you experience PAIN during or after exercise, your body is telling you something. Stop exercising and

consult your doctor.

What to Wear

Wear clothing that will not restrict your movement in any way while exercising. Clothes should be light

enough to allow the body to cool. Excessive clothing that causes you to perspire more than you normally

would while exercising, gives you no advantage. The extra weight you lose is body fluid and will be replaced

with the next glass of water you drink. It is advisable to wear a pair of gym or running shoes or “sneakers”.

Breathing during Exercise

Do not hold your breath while exercising. Breathe normally as much as possible. Remember, breathing

involves the intake and distribution of oxygen, which feeds the working muscles.

Rest periods

Once you start your exercise program, you should continue through to the end. Do not break off halfway

through and then restart at the same place later on without going through the warm-up stage again. The rest

period required between strength training exercises may vary from person to person. This will depend mostly

on your level of fitness and the program you have chosen. Rest between exercises by all means, but do not

allow this to exceed two minutes. Most people manage with half minute to one minute rest periods.

Quantum

STRETCHING

Stretching should be included in both your warm up and cool down, and should be performed after 3-5

minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or callisthenic type exercise. Movements should be performed

slowly and smoothly, with no bouncing or jerking. Move into the stretch until slight tension, not pain, is

Felt in the muscle and hold for 20-30 seconds. Breathing should be slow, rhythmical and under control,

making sure never to hold your breath.
