THE FIRST STEP TO A BETTER LIFESTYLE With the STAR TRAC S SERIES TREADMILL, you’ve taken an important first step to achieving your fitness goal. But, it’s important to have the right fitness tools to stay motivated and achieve results. About half of all people who start an exercise program quit within 6-12 months.
F.I.T. Principle Every cardiovascular program should be developed based on frequency, intensity and duration. 1. Frequency - the number of exercise sessions per week. Regular exercise should be performed at least three or four days a week to be beneficial, although fewer sessions may be sufficient for some. Those in superior physical condition typically train five to seven days per week. 2. Intensity - how hard each exercise is. Intensity is dependent upon one’s fitness level.
Program I: Week 1,2 3,4 5,6 Heart Rate (%) 60 to 65 60 to 65 60 to 65 Duration (minutes) 15 15 15 Workouts per Week 3 3 3 Week 1,2 3,4 5,6 Heart Rate (%) 65 to 70 65 to 70 65 to 70 Duration (minutes) 20 20 20 Workouts per Week 3 3 3 Week 1,2 3,4 5,6 Heart Rate (%) 70 to 75 70 to 75 70 to 75 Duration (minutes) 20 25 25 Workouts per Week 4 4 4 Week 1,2 3,4 5,6 Heart Rate (%) 75 to 80 75 to 80 75 to 80 Duration (minutes) 25 25 30 Workouts per Week 4 4 4 Week 1,2 3,4 5,6 Heart Rate (%) 80 to 85
many of the programs include a warm-up phase, in the MANUAL make sure a warm-up and cool-down period is factored in. If you are doing a running workout, a good starting speed is 5.0 mph. If you are doing a walking or jogging workout, a good starting speed is 3.8 mph. Target Training Chart Use the following table for a quick glance at your target training zone for both heart rate and rate of perceived exertion.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE Star Trac strongly recommends performing regular preventive maintenance on your STAR TRAC S SERIES TREADMILL. Without regularly scheduled maintenance, normal wear and tear may cause cumulative effects, such as misalignment or premature wear. This may result in downtime. For this reason, we highly recommend following the maintenance schedules..
1. Turn the treadmill on. Increase treadmill speed to 3.0 mph (5.0 kph). 2. Adjust tracking by adjusting the tailroller Allen screws (located at the back sides of the tailroller) with a 1/4" Allen wrench in 1/4-turn increments. If the running belt is tracking to the left, adjust the running belt to track to the right. Tighten the left tailroller Allen screw by turning clockwise, or loosen the right tailroller bolt by turning counter-clockwise.
8. CLEANUP: Turn the treadmill power OFF. Remove any excess wax with diluted cleaner (409) and towel. TIP: Blow away extra wax first (like dust), then wipe. 9. DISPLAY UPDATE: Update the LAST DECK service mileage to remove the REWAX BELT message.
