CLASSIC CONSOLE PROGRAM INFORMATION
NOTE: If speed or incline are changed during your workout, the remaining segments will be affected accordingly.
CLASSIC PROGRAMS: Workout programs include manual and interval training.
MANUAL: A workout that allows you to manually adjust the machine at any time.
INTERVALS: An incline-based workout that automatically adjusts the incline of the machine at regular intervals.
The first step in knowing the right intensity for your training is to
find out your maximum heart rate (max HR = 220 – your age).
The age-based method provides an average statistical prediction
of your max HR and is a good method for the majority of people,
especially those new to heart rate training. The most precise
and accurate way of determining your individual max HR is to
have it clinically tested by a cardiologist or exercise physiologist
through the use of a maximal stress test. If you are over the age
of 40, overweight, have been sedentary for several years, or
have a history of heart disease in your family, clinical testing is
recommended. This chart gives examples of the heart rate range
for a 30 year old exercising at 5 different heart rate zones. For
example, a 30-year-old’s max HR is 220 – 30 = 190 bpm and
90% max HR is 190 × 0.9 = 171 bpm.
TARGET HEART RATE: Automatically adjusts speed to maintain your target heart rate. Perfect for simulating the
intensity of your favorite sport or everyday activity. Time-based goal.
1) Select Target Heart Rate program and press ENTER.
2) Select TIME using and press ENTER.
3) The HEART RATE window will flash showing the default target heart rate of 80 beats per minute. Select your target
heart rate (from the chart above) using and press START to begin program.

FITNESS TEST PROGRAM: A workout based on the Gerkin protocol. This test has various stages
increasing treadmill speed and incline until your maximum heart rate is reached. Your score is based on
your gender, age and time needed to complete the test.
The Gerkin protocol was developed by Dr. Richard Gerkin of the Phoenix (Arizona) Fire Department. It is a sub-maximal graded treadmill
evaluation used by many Fire Departments across the United States to assess the physical condition of the firefighters. The test requires
constant monitoring of the user’s heart rate so the use of a telemetric chest strap is highly encouraged. The workout operates as follows:
4
WARM-UP: 3 minutes long at 1.0–3.0 mph (1.6–4.8 kph) and 0% incline.
1) STAGE 1: 1 minute long at 4.5 mph (7.2 kph) and 0% incline.
2) STAGE 2: 1 minute long at 4.5 mph (7.2 kph) and 2% incline.
3) STAGE 3: 1 minute long at 5.0 mph (8.0 kph) and 2% incline.
4) STAGES 4 THROUGH 15: After every odd minute, the incline will increase by 2%. After every even minute, the speed will increase by
0.5 mph (0.8 kph). Once the user’s heart rate exceeds the target heart rate (85% of maximum as determined by the equation [220 –
age] × [0.85] = target heart rate), the evaluation ends and the final evaluation stage is recorded.
5) COOL-DOWN: The test is completed when user's heart rate exceeds the target or the users completes all 15 stages, whichever
occurs first. Then the treadmill will enter cool down for 3 minutes.
FITNESS TEST SCORES (Estimated V02 MAX (ML/KG/MIN) per age category)
Note: Changing the speed or
incline during the test will end the
test and enter cool-down. Press
stop to end the test at any time and
see results.

SPRINT 8: The SPRINT 8 program is an anaerobic interval program designed to build muscle, improve
speed, and naturally increase the release of Human Growth Hormone (HGH) in your body. Producing HGH
through exercise and a proper diet has been shown as an effective way to burn fat and build lean muscle mass
according to Phil Campbell, author of Ready, Set, Go! Synergy Fitness. Please go to Mr. Campbell’s website,
www.readysetgofitness.com, for more details about this radical new approach to fitness.
1) WARM-UP (3:00) should gradually increase your heart rate and increase respiration and blood flow to working muscles.
The warm-up is controlled by the user to meet your specific needs.
2) INTERVAL TRAINING (14:30) starts immediately after the warm-up with a 30-second sprint interval; changing both speed
and incline. Seven recovery intervals of one minute and 30 seconds will alternate with the eight 30-second sprint intervals.
The sprints will increase speed and elevation at the 3rd and 5th interval. The recovery speed is about 2–3 mph slower
than your sprint and the recovery elevation is 0. You can alter your speed or incline during your workout.
3) COOL-DOWN (2:30) helps return your body’s systems to resting levels. Less demand is placed on your heart during
recovery if an appropriate cool-down is used following the exercise.
In order to keep track of each segment/interval, the segment time is counted down in the timer. It takes only 20 minutes to
complete the SPRINT 8 workout.

SPRINT 8: The SPRINT 8 program is an anaerobic interval program designed to build muscle, improve
speed, and naturally increase the release of Human Growth Hormone (HGH) in your body. Producing HGH
through exercise and a proper diet has been shown as an effective way to burn fat and build lean muscle mass
according to Phil Campbell, author of Ready, Set, Go! Synergy Fitness. Please go to Mr. Campbell’s website,
www.readysetgofitness.com, for more details about this radical new approach to fitness.
1) WARM-UP (3:00) should gradually increase your heart rate and increase respiration and blood flow to working muscles.
The warm-up is controlled by the user to meet your specific needs.
2) INTERVAL TRAINING (14:30) starts immediately after the warm-up with a 30-second sprint interval; changing both speed
and incline. Seven recovery intervals of one minute and 30 seconds will alternate with the eight 30-second sprint intervals.
The sprints will increase speed and elevation at the 3rd and 5th interval. The recovery speed is about 2–3 mph slower
than your sprint and the recovery elevation is 0. You can alter your speed or incline during your workout.
3) COOL-DOWN (2:30) helps return your body’s systems to resting levels. Less demand is placed on your heart during
recovery if an appropriate cool-down is used following the exercise.
In order to keep track of each segment/interval, the segment time is counted down in the timer. It takes only 20 minutes to
complete the SPRINT 8 workout.

FITNESS TEST PROGRAM: A workout based on the Gerkin protocol. This test has various stages
increasing treadmill speed and incline until your maximum heart rate is reached. Your score is based on
your gender, age and time needed to complete the test.
The Gerkin protocol was developed by Dr. Richard Gerkin of the Phoenix (Arizona) Fire Department. It is a sub-maximal graded treadmill
evaluation used by many Fire Departments across the United States to assess the physical condition of the firefighters. The test requires
constant monitoring of the user’s heart rate so the use of a telemetric chest strap is highly encouraged. The workout operates as follows:
WARM-UP: 3 minutes long at 1.0–3.0 mph (1.6–4.8 kph) and 0% incline.
1) STAGE 1: 1 minute long at 4.5 mph (7.2 kph) and 0% incline.
2) STAGE 2: 1 minute long at 4.5 mph (7.2 kph) and 2% incline.
3) STAGE 3: 1 minute long at 5.0 mph (8.0 kph) and 2% incline.
4) STAGES 4 THROUGH 15: After every odd minute, the incline will increase by 2%. After every even minute, the speed will increase by
0.5 mph (0.8 kph). Once the user’s heart rate exceeds the target heart rate (85% of maximum as determined by the equation [220 –
age] × [0.85] = target heart rate), the evaluation ends and the final evaluation stage is recorded.
5) COOL-DOWN: The test is completed when user's heart rate exceeds the target or the users completes all 15 stages, whichever
occurs first. Then the treadmill will enter cool down for 3 minutes.

CALORIES GOAL: A workout that allows you to select a specific number of calories you would like to burn during
your workout. Increasing the calorie goal of the workout will increase the duration of the workout based on your speed.

DISTANCE GOAL: A workout that allows you to select a specific distance you would like to travel during your workout.
Increasing the distance goal of the workout will increase the duration of the workout based on your speed. Estimated time

TARGET HEART RATE PROGRAMS: A workout designed to keep you in your specified target heart rate
zone. This workout requires you to wear a wireless heart rate strap. See next page for calculating your
target heart rate.
HR INCLINE: Program adjusts incline to bring to your target heart rate.
HR % INCLINE: Program adjusts incline to bring to your desired % maximum heart rate.
HR SPEED: Program adjusts speed to bring to your target heart rate.
HR % SPEED: Program adjusts speed to bring to your desired % maximum heart rate.
The first step in knowing the right intensity for
your training is to find out your maximum heart
rate (max HR = 220 – your age). The age-based
method provides an average statistical prediction
of your max HR and is a good method for the
majority of people, especially those new to heart
rate training. The most precise and accurate way
of determining your individual max HR is to have

TARGET HEART RATE NOTES:
• Warm-up and cool-down each last 5 minutes.
• After 5 minutes, the speed or incline will automatically adjust to bring you near your specified heart rate.
• The profile window shows your heart rate during exercise. The yellow line represents your target heart rate (THR) and
the red line represents your current heart rate. If you are working out beneath your THR, the treadmill will adjust speed
or incline accordingly to bring you near your target.
• If there is no heart rate detected, the unit will not change the speed or incline.
• If your heart rate is 25 beats over your target zone the program will shut down.
