To select a per­sonal trainer work­out, press the
Random Workouts
button, the Interval
Workouts button,
or the Terrain Workouts button repeatedly until the
name of the desired workout appears in the dis­play. Random workouts use preset random speed
and incline settings. Interval workouts use incline
settings to provide a personalized workout. Terrain
workouts use speed and incline settings to simu­late an actual walking experience.

When a workout is selected, the display will show
the name, the maximum incline setting, the maxi­mum speed setting and the duration of the work­out. The display will also show a profile of the in­cline settings of the workout.

Press the Enter button to select the desired work­out. Select your age and your weight using the
Increase and Decrease buttons next to the Enter
button. Press the Enter button after each selec-
tion. Note: To use the Interval workouts, you must
also enter your minimum and maximum incline set­tings using the Quick Touch Incline buttons or the
Incline increase and decrease buttons.

3. Press the Start/Stop button to start the workout.

A moment after you press the Start/Stop button,
the incline trainer will automatically adjust to the
first speed and incline settings of the workout. Hold
the handrails and begin walking.

Each workout is divided into segments. One speed
setting and one incline setting are programmed for
each segment. Note: The same speed and/or incline
setting may be programmed for consecutive seg­ments.

During the workout, the profile will show your
progress. The flashing segment of the profile repre­sents the current segment of the workout. The
height of the flashing segment indicates the incline

setting for the cur­rent segment. At
the end of each

egment, the next

s
segment of the pro-

ile will begin to

f
flash and the speed and incline settings will appear
at the top of the display for a few moments to alert
you.

The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment of the profile flashes in the display and
the last segment ends. The walking belt will then
slow to a stop.

If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low
at any time during the workout, you can manually
override the setting by pressing the Speed or
Incline buttons; however, when the next segment

of the workout begins, the incline trainer will au­tomatically adjust to the speed and incline set­tings for the next segment. Note: If you use an

Interval workout, the speed will not adjust automati­cally.

To stop or restart the workout at any time, press
the Start/Stop button.

4. Select a display mode and monitor your
progress with the display.

The console offers three display modes. The dis­play mode that you select will determine which
workout information is shown. Press the Display
button repeatedly to select the desired display
mode.

The display can show the speed of the walking belt,
the incline of the incline trainer, a profile of the
workout, the time remaining in the workout, the dis­tance you have walked or run, the approximate
number of calories you have burned, your exercise
intensity in METs, the approximate number of calo­ries burned per hour, your pace, and your power
output in watts.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning any

xercise program, consult your physician.

e
This is especially important for persons over
age 35 or persons with pre-existing health
problems.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is in­tended only as an exercise aid in determining
heart rate trends in general.

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise
program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a
reputable book or consult your physician. Remember,
proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for
successful results.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer­cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of
time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your
body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after
the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin
to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to
burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is near the lowest number in your training
zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your
heart rate near the middle number in your training
zone.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exer­cise, which is activity that requires large amounts of
oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic ex­ercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is near the highest number in your training
zone.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten­sity is the key to achieving results. You can use your
heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.
The chart below shows recommended heart rates for
fat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the
bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near­est ten years). The three numbers listed above your
age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is
the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the
heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest
number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching

and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation
for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min­utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During
the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not
keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer
than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you
exercise–never hold your breath.

Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch­ing. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles
and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest be­tween workouts. After a few months of regular exer­cise, you may complete up to five workouts each
week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to
make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your
everyday life.
