RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE
- If you are a beginner, start by training for several days at a low speed, without overexerting yourself, and taking rest pe- nods if necessary. Gradually increase the number or duration of sessions. During your workout, be sure to ventilate the room in which the treadmill is located.
- Keep firearm-up: Gradual effort starting from 10 minutes: To maintain or rehabilitate, work out every day for at least 10 minutes. This type of exercise helps work the muscles and joints gently and can be used as a warm-up before more strenuous physical activity. To increase muscle tone in the legs, choose a greater incline and increase the duration of the exercise.
- Aerobic exercise for weight loss: Moderate effort for 35 to 60 minutes: This type of training is an effective way of burning calories. The. re is no point in pushing yourself unduly; for the best results, the most important thing is the frequency of exercise (at least 3 times a week) and the duration of the session (35 to 60 minutes). Exercise at average intensity (moderate effort so you are not out of breath).
In order to lose weight, as well as take regular physical exercise, it’s essential to follow a balanced diet. - Improve your stamina: Sustained effort for 20 to 40 minutes: This type of exercise helps strengthen the heart muscle and improves your respiratory health. Exercise at least 3 times a week at a steady pace (rapid breathing). As your training progresses, you will be able to maintain this effort for longer and at an improved pace.
Training at a faster pace (anaerobic and in the red zone) is reserved for athletes and requires special preparation. - Cooldown: After each training session, walk slowly for a few minutes to bring your body gradually to rest. This cool-down phase helps your cardiovascular and respiratory systems, blood circulation and muscles return to normal. It also helps to eliminate side effects such as the accumulation of lactic acid which is one of the major causes of muscle pain (cramps and stiffness).
- Stretching: y You are advised to perform stretching movements after each session in order to relax your muscles and recover more effectively.t
