CALORIE GOAL

CHAPTER FOUR: CUSTOM WORKOUTS

Calorie goal allows you to choose the number of calories you wish to burn, and the treadmill will calculate the required speed and incline to attain this goal, including a 3-minute warm up and 3-minute cool down. For safety and comfort reasons, you set a maximum speed.

Important Note About Calorie Usage: The treadmill estimates your calorie usage using formulas from the industry-standard Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription, from the American College of Sports Medicine. Variations between individuals make these formulas accurate to only about plus or minus 20%.

Further error may occur because of the walking and running transition. The treadmill assumes you are walking at 4 mph or slower. If you are actually jogging at speeds lower than 4 mph, the treadmill will greatly underestimate your calorie usage.
