An important step in developing a long term fitness program is to determine your goals. Is your pri- mary goal for exercising on your Horizon Fitness treadmill to lose weight? Improve muscle? Burn Stress? Prepare for the spring racing schedule? Knowing what your goals are will help you develop a more successful exercise program. Below are some common exercise goals:

• Weight Loss

• Weight Maintenance

• Improve Body Shape and Tone

• Strengthen Leg Muscles

• Increased Energy Level

• Improved Sleep Patterns

• Improved Sports Performance

• Stress Reduction

•Improved Cardiovascular Endurance

If possible try to define your personal goals in precise, measurable terms, and then put your goals in writing. The more specific you can be, the easier it will be to track your progress. If your goals are long term, divide them up into monthly and weekly segments. Longer term goals can lose some of the immediate motivation benefits. Short term goals are easier to achieve. Your Horizon Fitness treadmill console provides you with several readouts that can be used to record your progress. You can track Distance, Calories or Time. Time is the most important and useful of test functions.
