PERSONAL TRAINER

1)CUSTOM WORKOUTS

The treadmill console stores up to six custom workouts. For information on creating these work- outs, see the topic titled Programming Custom Workouts in Section 5, titled “User Menu”.

To use custom workouts, press the PERSONAL TRAINER key repeatedly until the MESSAGE CENTER displays “PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUTS”. Then, press ENTER. The MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to select a custom workout number, ranging from 1 to 6. Using the ARROW keys or the NUMERIC keypad, select the number and press ENTER. If a workout has not been created for that number, the MESSAGE CENTER simply scrolls to the next number. If a workout has been been created for the selected number, the MESSAGE CENTER displays successive prompts to enter the weight and choose a speed. After these entries are provided, the workout begins.

2)DISTANCE GOAL

This workout is designed to build endurance. The objective is to cover a certain distance in miles. Once the objective is met, the workout automatically goes into a cool-down phase, and ends afterward.

3)CALORIES GOAL

This workout is designed to promote weight loss and weight control. The objective is to burn a certain number of calories in the selected time duration. Once the objective is met, the workout automatically goes into a cool-down phase, and ends afterward.

NOTE: When a user sets this goal with the TIME ARROW keys, the console displays the values in .10-mile increments.

4)TIME IN ZONE GOAL

The Time in Zone Goal program, a feature of Heart Rate Zone Training®, enhances FAT BURN and CARDIO workouts by setting a duration for staying within the target zone as the workout goal. Once the duration objective is met, the workout goes into a cool-down phase.

5)SPORT TRAININGTM

This distance-goal workout is designed for runners training for races. The program creates realistic terrains by setting different incline levels throughout the course. Incline grades depend on the diffi- culty levels selected during the workout setup. A 1.5 percent incline grade, which is the baseline level, simulates a flat running surface. A zero percent grade simulates running downhill. Incline durations range between 30 and 60 seconds. The course ends when the distance goal is met. Two Sport TrainingTM programs are available on the treadmill:

•SPORT TRAININGTM (5K) is a 5-kilometer, or 3.1-mile, course.

•SPORT TRAININGTM (10K) is a 10-kilometer, or 6.2-mile, course

•SPORT TRAININGTM (TIME) is a time-based training workout.
