Monitoring Your Heart Rate Monitoring Your Heart Rate To obtain the greatest cardiovascular benefits from your exercise workout, it is important to work within your target heart rate zone. The American Heart Association (AHA) defines this target as 60%-75% percent of your maximum heart rate. Your maximum heart rate may be roughly calculated by subtracting your age from 220. Your maximum heart rate and aerobic capacity naturally decreases as you age.

Workout Information Frequency, Intensity, Time, Target Heart Rate Zone The exercise practices include four major variables: frequency, intensity, time, target heart rate zone. A continuous workout will help to improve your cardiovascular functions and increase the ability of your muscles to obtain the oxygen and nutrition. A good workout provides a greater advantage to extend the endurance of muscle and body flexibility.
Workout Information Exercise Practice Procedures Warm-Up Workout Cool Down A good warm-up will help you perform better and will decrease the aches and pains. The warm-up prepares your muscles for exercise and allows your oxygen supply to ready itself for what is to come. Experience tells us that muscles perform best when they are warmer than normal body temperature. This normally takes about 5-10 minutes when you begin to perspire on your brow and breathe more deeply.
Warm Up Exercises EXERCISE GUIDELINES WARNING! Before beginning this or any exercise program, you should consult your physician. This is especially important for individuals over the age of 35 or individuals with pre-existing health problems. Warming up prepares the body for the exercise by increasing circulation, supplying more oxygen to the muscles and raising body temperature. Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise to warm up.

All treadmills are calibrated at the factory for British Units (miles per hour). To change the display to read in kilometers, follow the steps described here: 1) Turn power OFF on the console. (Do not unplug treadmill.) Attach the magnet safety key to the console.

Your new treadmill comes pre-adjusted from the factory for tension and centering. Please follow the procedures below if the belt shifts to the left or right while walking: WALKING BELT IS SHIFTING TO THE LEFT (Diagram 1) First, turn treadmill on to run at 1 mph.
