4.4 MAXIMIZING WORKOUTS ON A LIFE FITNESS TREADMILL

SELECTING A LEVEL

The steps for setting up a HILL, RANDOM, SPORT TRAINING 5K, and SPORT TRAINING 10K

workout include selecting a level. The word “level” refers to a range of incline percentages. The tread-

mill features 20 levels, with Level 1 having the lowest average incline grade and Level 20 having the

highest.

LEVEL % Incline LEVEL % Incline

1 0.0 - 1.5 11 2.0 - 8.5

2 0.0 - 2.2 12 3.0 - 9.2

3 0.0 - 2.9 13 3.5 - 9.9

4 0.0 - 3.6 14 5.0 - 10.6

5 0.0 - 4.3 15 5.5 - 11.3

6 0.0 - 5.0 16 6.5 - 12.0

7 0.0 - 5.7 17 7.0 - 12.7

8 0.0 - 6.4 18 8.0 - 13.4

9 0.5 - 7.1 19 8.7 - 14.1

10 1.5 - 7.8 20 9.0 - 15.0

Within each level are seven incline percentages, or hills. During a workout, each hill appears in the

WORKOUT PROFILE window as rows of light stacked in a column. The number of lit rows within a

column corresponds to an incline percentage. For example, in Level 5, the lowest incline is 0.0 per-

cent and is represented as one lit row. The highest incline, 4.3 percent, is represented by a column

with all seven rows lit.

In the HILL and RANDOM workouts, these varying hills occur for equal durations, as discussed

in the HILL workout description. When the workout program brings up a new hill, the incline per-

centage changes automatically to match that hill.

To change levels during a workout, use the ARROW keys or the NUMERIC keypad.

OOLDOWN

Life Fitness' unique Cooldown Protocol automatically customizes every cooldown based on

each user's workout performance. Workout performance factors, such as speed, incline, dura-

tion, and heart rate, determine the duration and intensity of the cool-down.
