3 THE WORKOUTS

3.1 WORKOUT OVERVIEWS

This section lists the treadmill’s pre-programmed workouts. For more detailed information, see Section 3.2, titled

Using the Workouts.

MANUAL is a workout in which the user manually selects and adjusts the elevation and speed.

SPEED INTERVAL alternates intervals of high and low speeds.

AEROBIC also alternates intervals of high and low speeds, but the low intervals are higher than those of SPEED

INTERVAL.

FAT BURNER alters uniform high elevation intervals with uniform low elevation intervals.

CROSS-COUNTRY alternates uniformly high and low elevations and features two peaks throughout the workout.

HILL CLIMB also alternates high and low elevations, building gradually to a peak.

TARGET DISTANCE targets a specific distance as a goal.

TARGET CALORIES targets a specific number of caloires as a goal.

TARGET TIME targets a specific time duration as a goal.

3.2 USING THE

ORKOUTS

All workouts last 30 minutes (15 intervals of 2 minutes each), except for the TARGET TIME workout, in which the user selects the dura-

tion. Different workouts require different setup steps. See the chart titled Treadmill Workout Set-up Steps, which appears

later in this section, for a quick glance at the steps for setting up any workout. This section provides details on the steps them-

selves.

BEGIN ANY WORKOUT SETUP

Switch on the treadmill. Then, make sure that the emergency stop key is properly inserted into the key-holder, and clip the key

cord to clothing.

SELECTING QUICK START

QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising, and it bypasses the steps involved in selecting a specific workout. Simply press

the START key immediately, and a workout begins at the default elevation of 0 percent and the default speed of 0.5 mph (1 kph)

speed. These settings can be changed manually during the workout, which lasts for 30 minutes.

SELECTING AND

USING A MANUAL WORKOUT

For MANUAL: Press the SPEED ARROW keys to select a workout speed of up to 10 mph (16 kmh). Press the

ELEVATION ARROW keys to select a workout elevation of up to 10 percent. Then, press START. After a displayed

three-second count-down, the workout begins. Change the speed and elevation values as desired throught the workout, which

lasts for 30 minutes.

SELECTING AND USING A SPEED INTERVAL OR AEROBIC WORKOUT

Press the SELECT key. The central DATA window displays “P1”, which corresponds to SPEED INTERVAL. To select

AEROBIC (displayed as “P2”), press the the SELECT PLUS key once. Press the SELECT MINUS key to scroll backward through

workout options.

For both workouts, the SPEED DATA window displays a default high speed of 6.0 mph (10 kmh). Use the SPEED keys to adjust

this value. The maximum possible speed is 10 mph (16 kmh). The treadmill computer automatically selects the speed for the

lower-speed intervals based on the high speed intervals chosen. The workout-in-progress alternates between these intervals.

The ELEVATION DATA window displays a default elevation of 0 percent, which is level. To change this value manually during the work-

out-in-progress, press the ELEVATION ARROW keys. The range is 0 percent to 10 percent. This ELEVATION does not change auto-

matically during either workout.

To begin the workout, press START. After a displayed three-second count-down, the workout begins.
