Workout Tips and Recommendations

Using this machine not only strengthens the body and develops muscles, but also helps you lose weight when combined with a sensible diet.

Warm-up before exercise

The warm-up phase helps improve blood circulation, prepare the muscles for exercise and reduce the risk of cramps or muscle strains during the workout. Before you start, it is recommended to do the exercises suggested below. Each stretching exercise should be performed for at least 30 seconds. Do not make sudden movements while doing them to avoid muscle damage. If you get injured, stop exercising immediately.

Head rolls

First tilt your head toward your right shoulder, stretch your neck and rotate your head once clockwise and once counterclockwise; then tilt your head toward your left shoulder and make one counterclockwise rotation. Repeat.

Shoulder lifts

Raise your left shoulder and make 5 backward rotations; then raise your right shoulder and make 5 backward rotations, alternating sides.

Side stretch

Raise your arms above your head, then grasp your right wrist with your left hand and reach upward until you feel your right arm fully stretched. Hold for 5 seconds before switching to the other arm.

Quadriceps stretch

Holding onto a wall with your right hand for balance, pull your left foot back with your left hand, bringing the heel as close to your buttock as possible. Hold for 15 seconds, then repeat with the other leg.

Inner thigh stretch

Sitting on the floor, put the soles of your feet together, clasp them with both hands and pull them in as close to your body as possible. Slowly press down on both heels and hold this position for 15 seconds.

Toe touch

Slowly bend forward, relax your back and shoulders and reach for your toes. Bend as low as you can and hold the position for up to 15 seconds.

Hamstring stretch

Sit down, straighten your right leg, bend your left leg, grab your left ankle with your left hand and push it inward so that your left foot is as close to your torso as possible and the sole of the foot is against the inside of your right thigh. Then press forward with your body and reach both arms forward to touch your toes; the more pressure, the better. Hold this position for 15 seconds and switch to the left leg.

Calf stretch

Lean against a wall with both hands, tilt your body at a 45-degree angle to the floor and alternately move your left and right legs back, as if walking.

Workout phase

This is the full workout phase. After long regular practice you will be able to improve the flexibility of your leg muscles. During the workout it is important to keep a steady intensity that matches your fitness level. Choose a suitable load and keep your heart rate within the target zone shown on the chart below.

To keep your pulse within the target range, exercise for at least 12 minutes. On average, users exercise for 15–20 minutes at the start of the training process.

Recovery phase after exercise

At this stage, repeat the exercises you did during the warm-up. You can slightly reduce the range and speed of movements for about 5 minutes. This helps the body cool down gradually and the muscles relax after the load.

Over time, as your body adapts to the load, you can gradually increase the duration and intensity of your workouts. It is recommended to exercise at least 3 times a week. If possible, record your progress every week.

Muscle strengthening

If you want to use this machine to strengthen your muscles, you need to increase the resistance during exercise. In this way, long workouts of high intensity can bring significant progress. To do this, first warm up, then move on to the main exercises. Gradually increase the load and resistance, especially in the final part of the workout. However, monitor your pulse and do not leave the target zone. Be sure to cool down after exercise.

Weight loss

The key factors for weight loss are the time and intensity of the workout. The higher the load and duration, the more calories are burned. This is how the weight-loss effect is achieved. At the same time, regular exercise improves physical fitness and appearance. During the process you can adjust the exercises to your goals and objectives.
