of strokes changes, the current power is calculated from the
(constant) braking moment (brake stage) and the number of
strokes, and displayed. During exercise, the brake stage can
be increased or decreased by pressing the "+" or "–" button.
Following this, the braking moment is kept constant and the
power indication recalculated as described above when the
number of strokes changes.
Recovery
Pulse measurement during the recovery phase after exercising.
From the pulse rate at the beginning and end of a minute, the
difference is determined and a fitness mark awarded. With
constant exercising, the improvement of this mark is a measure
of improving fitness.
Reset
Cancellation of display content and re-initialisation of the
display.
Target pulse
Pulse rate to be achieved which is set manually or by the pro-
gram.

Exercising with the KETTLER COACH
The KETTLER COACH rowing machine provides all of the advan tages of
"real life" rowing without the trouble or expense of "taking to the water".
Rowing is a sport that improves not only the performance of the cardio-
vascular system, but also improves stamina and endurance. The following
points should be observed before commencing a course of training:
Important
Before commencing a course of training, have your family doctor check
that you are fit enough to exercise with the COACH. The result of the me-
dical check-up should be used as a basis for planning the exercise pro-
gramme. The following directions are only to be recommended to healthy
persons.
The advantages of rowing
As mentioned above, rowing is an excellent way to increase the efficiency
of the cardio-vascular system. It also improves the ability to absorb oxy-
gen. In addition, rowing is also suitable for "burning off" fat by calling up
the fat reserves (in the form of fatty acids) to be transformed into energy.
Another important advantage of rowing lies in the strengthening of all of
the body's important muscle groups, whereby the strengthening of the
back and shoulder muscles can be considered especially beneficial from
the orthopaedic point of view. The strengthening of the back muscles can
help prevent such orthopaedic problems as are encountered all too often
nowadays. Exercising with the KETTLER COACH is therefore a compre-
hensive way to exercise. It improves endurance and strength while at the
same time not putting the joints under stress.
Which muscles are called on

groups. Although some are concentrated upon more than others. These
groups are shown in the lower illustration.
As can be seen in the illustration, rowing activates the upper and lower
body to the same extent. In the legs, rowing exercises the extensors (1),
the flexors (2) and the shin and calf muscles (5, 4). The movement of the
hips also calls on the seat (gluteus) muscles (3).
In the torso region, rowing calls primarily upon the latissimus (6) and the
erectors (8), but also on the trapezius (7), the deltoid (9) and the arm ex-
tensor muscles (10).
The KETTLER COACH can also be used for other special exercises to
concentrate on further muscles groups. These are described in one of the
following sections.
