TREADMILL OPERATION
LUBRICATING THE WALKING PLATFORM
Before the treadmill is used, the walking platform
should be lubricated. Open the included lubricant
bottle. Reach under one side of the walking belt as far
as you can, and apply half of the lubricant to the walk
ing platform. Then, reach under the other side of the
walking belt and apply the remainder of the lubricant.
After you have applied the lubricant, walk on the
treadmill for a few minutes to spread the lubricant.
Apply lubricant here

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition and
adequate rest are essential for successful results.
WARNING: Before beginning this
or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for individuals over the age of 35 or individuals withpreexisting health problems.
WHY EXERCISE?
Exercise has proven essential for good health and
well-being. A well-rounded exercise program helps to
develop a stronger and more efficient heart, improved
respiratory function, increased stamina, better weight
management, increased ability to handle stress, and
greater self-esteem.
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.
Burning Fat
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at the proper
intensity level for a sustained period of time. During
the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easi
ly accessible
after the first few minutes 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 between the lower two numbers in your
training zone as you exercise.
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 effective aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure your
heart rate, stop exercising and place two
fingers on your wrist
as shown. Take a
six-second heartbeat
count, and multiply
the result by ten to
find your heart rate.
(A six-second count is used because your heart rate
drops quickly when you stop exercising.) If your heart
rate is too high, decrease the intensity of your exer
cise. If your heart rate is too low, increase the intensity
of your exercise.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three important parts:
A warm-up, consisting of five to ten minutes of
stretching and light exercise. This will increase your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.
Training zone exercise, including 20 to 30 minutes of
exercise with your heart rate in your training zone.
