GENERAL TRAINING NOTES

Body weight training is an excellent way

to increase your muscle mass and improve

functional mobility.

Combine these pieces of equipment with a brisk

walk, jog or run between stations and you will get a good blend of cardio

and resistance training.

There are two ways that may prove helpful when designing your

program. You can use repetitions (which are the number of times you do

a particular exercise) or you can use time as your goal (e.g. one minute on

and then move to the next piece of equipment).

Always maintain good technique and never push through any pain that

is worrying you. Concentrate on your breathing so your body is best

equipped to work harder for longer.

Steering Wheel

Helps with shoulder and

arm mobility

Rider

• Uses major leg muscles and chest.

It can also help increase your

heart rate

• Use good rhythm and a suitable time

period to achieve this result

of the Circular Head Council, supported by the
