FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The treadmill console offers a selection of features
designed to make your workouts more effective. When
the manual mode of the console is selected, the speed
and incline of the treadmill can be changed with the
touch of a button. As you exercise, the five displays
will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can
even measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse
sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.
Six preset programs are also offered. Each program
automatically controls the speed and incline of the
treadmill as it guides you through an effective workout.
The console also features iFIT interactive technology.
Having iFIT technology is like having a personal trainer
in your home. Using a stereo audio cable, you can connect the treadmill to your portable stereo, home stereo,
computer, or VCR and play special iFIT MP3, CD, and
video programs (iFIT MP3 programs, CDs, and videocassettes are available separately). iFIT programs automatically control the speed and incline of the treadmill
as a personal trainer guides you through every step of
your workout; high-energy music provides added motivation. To purchase and download iFIT MP3 pro-
grams, go to www.iFIT.com.
To purchase iFIT CDs
or videocassettes, call the toll-free telephone number on the front of this manual.
With the treadmill connected to your computer, you
can also go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com and access programs directly from the internet. See
www.iFIT.com for more information.
To use the manual mode of the console, follow thesteps beginning on page 13. To use a preset program, see page 15. To use an iFIT.com CD or video
program, see page 19. To use an iFIT.com program
directly from our Web site, see page 21.
Note: To prevent damage to the walking platform, wear
clean athletic shoes while using the treadmill. The first
time the treadmill is used, observe the alignment of the
walking belt, and center the walking belt if necessary
(see page 25).
THE OPTIONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR
A chest pulse sensor is
available separately. The
chest pulse sensor con
tinuously monitors your
heart rate and offers
hands-free operation.To
purchase a chest pulse
sensor, call the toll-free
telephone number on
the front of this manual.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
WARNING: Before beginning this
or any exercise program, consult your physi-
ian. This is especially important for individu-
c
als over the age of 35 or individuals with preexisting health problems.
The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors, including your movement,
may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings.
The sensor is intended only as an exercise aid
in determining heart rate trends in general.
The following guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For more detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.
is to burn fat, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the lowest number in
our training zone.
y
For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed and incline
of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middle
number in your training zone.
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,
adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your
heart rate is near the highest number in your training
zone.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three parts:
A Warm-up—Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes
of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to
the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers
above your age. The three numbers define your “training zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended
heart rates for fat burning; the higher number is the
recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively
low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible
ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body
begin to use stored
carbohydrate calories
fat calories
for energy. If your goal
for en-
Training Zone Exercise—After warming up, increase
the intensity of your exercise until your pulse is in your
training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the first few
weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your
pulse in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.)
Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise—never
hold your breath.
A Cool-down—Finish each workout with 5 to 10 min
utes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the
flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent postexercise 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, you may complete up to five workouts each week if desired. The key
to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable
part of your everyday life.
