Choosing a Program

Choosing a program depends on your goals. If you are a beginner or returning to regular exercise, you can start a cardio-conditioning program to slowly return your body to a comfortable level of exercise. If you have been exercising and feel that you have an intermediate or advanced fitness level, you probably have established goals. The Precor web site (www.precor.com) can give you many ideas about fitness workouts and advice from the experts.

Several workout choices on the treadmill are pre- programmed with recommendations for incline levels, pace, and alternating intervals. You always have the option to override the suggested levels with the exception of the M9.35i Fitness Test.

If your level of exertion becomes too great, reduce your pace or change the incline using the arrow keys to override each upcoming column in the program profile. If you use the arrow keys, the program profile changes accordingly. When you complete a program that contains a time limit or distance limit, an automatic 5-minute cool-down period begins.

Program Tips

•Work out indefinitely in a program. At the ENTER TIME prompt, use the arrow keys to select NO LIMIT or, on the M9.35i, press the number zero. While you exercise, TIME indicates the amount of time you have been exercising. If you choose to exercise without a time limit, the automatic 5-minute cool-down period is eliminated. You will need to incorporate a cool-down period by accessing the Manual Program.

Note: Programs that bypass the ENTER TIME prompt have a fixed time limit or goal.

•If a workout time or goal exists, the TIME display indicates the amount of time remaining in your workout session.

•A blinking column tracks the progress that you make during a program.

•When you select a user ID and a preset program such as Easy Walk or 5K, incline variations in the final column of the program are recorded.

•The interval programs record both incline and speed variations which appear the next time you choose the same interval program and user ID.

•On the M9.35i, the distance-based programs record and show your personal best record when you select a user ID and complete the program.
