The seat transforms the machine into a pedaler, plus
a pedaler with upper body exercise. To accommo-
date differences in limb lengths, it may be necessary
to lower the hand grips and adjust the seat horizon-
tally and vertically. Beginners can perform a legs-
only exercise comfortably by pushing and pulling
with the feet. While bicycles have fixed range of
motion, stroke length on the VersaClimber is con-
trolled by the user from 1" to 20" through a complete
range of pedaling rates. By grasping the moving
hand grips, the muscles of the arms, shoulders,
chest and back are added to the leg muscle activity.
The seated exercise is for warming up and low to
medium level exercises.

To perform "cross body" strength sets, adjust the hydraulics to the appropriate speed and tighten the foot
straps. Climb using cross body forces by pulling down with the arm on one side of the body and lifting with the
leg on the other side of the body. Move as though you were going to touch the elbow of the right arm to the
opposite knee of the left leg as they come together. Then alternate.
To perform an alternate cross body strength set, push up with the left arm and down with the right leg. Alternate

CLIMBING and RUNNING MOTIONS To perform full body strength sets, adjust the hydraulics to the desired
speed and secure the foot straps. Exert upward and downward forces with the arms and simultaneously exert
upward and downward forces with the legs. This activity is equivalent to a lat pull and military press for the
upper body and a leg press and weighted lift for the lower body.
Interval training on the VersaClimber is for advanced level workouts. User's should be thoroughly familiar
with all functions of the VersaClimber and be able to comfortably climb a minimum of 30 minutes per workout
session before attempting this method of conditioning.
Interval training is for the advanced person who wants to increase their aerobic and anaerobiccapacity. The purpose
of interval training is to increase the intensity of the workload for a short period of time so that the oxygen sup-
plied to the muscles is less than the amount of oxygen required to maintain the workload. An oxygen debt is
created in the muscles and therefore they must work anaerobically or without oxygen for a short period of time.
The intense portionof the interval is then followed by a short, low intensity, recovery period.
Intervals on the VersaClimber are achieved by sprinting, that is, by increasing the speed and the stroke length
of each step (faster rates of motion) or by exerting maximal forces against a preset rate of motion (slower rates
of motion). Both of these methods of interval training condition the cardiovascular system to become used to
extremely strenuous work loads.
Sprint intervals consist of short sprints (hydraulic control set to a minimum) of 5 - 15 seconds with both arms
and legs pushing and pulling in the upward and downward directions (full body sets). Motion should be as quick
as possible until the anaerobic threshold (not to exceed 85% of predicted maximal heart rate) is achieved. The
foot straps should also be used for vertical lift. The upper torso should remain stable during the sprint interval
Page 20
to ensure unwasted motion. The interval should be followed by a recovery period of 2 - 3 minutes or until breath-
ing is controlled and muscle fatigue has diminished. Repeat. As you become better conditioned, the rest time
between each interval should become shorter.
Remember to always warm up 10 - 15 minutes on the VersaClimber before beginning intervalworkouts and to always
stay within your target heart rate. It is also very important to always continue climbing during recovery periods
at a slow, easy pace taking a 2 - 4 inch step. The following aerobic-anaerobic training chart is a general guideline for
advanced interval trainingon the VersaClimber. This advanced training technique is not for beginnersor for those
who have health problems.
0 - 10 min Warm Up To Aerobic Rate Resting To 60-75%
10 - 20 min Aerobic-Anaerobic Interval
Interval: Exert maximal power (Force and Speed) against a restricted rate of
motion set by the hydraulic knob. Push and pull with both arms and legs
for 8-12 strokes on each side through a full range of motion. Do not bottom out.
Restricted rate of motion should be set to allow user to complete the 8-12 strokes and
not exceed the upper percentages of maximal heart rate. After power strokes have
been completed, relax and take a shorter, slower step until heart rate returns to lower
aerobic recovery level. Start next interval. Complete as many as possible during the
interval time limits.
