TREADMILL OPERATION  
THE PERFORMANT LUBETM WALKING BELT  
electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord  
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a  
grounding plug. Plug the power cord into a surge  
protector, and plug the surge protector into an ap-  
propriate outlet that is properly installed and  
grounded in accordance with all local codes and  
ordinances.  
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with  
PERFORMANT LUBETM, a high-performance lubricant.  
IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other  
substances to the walking belt or the walking plat-  
form. They will deteriorate the walking belt and  
cause excessive wear.  
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,  
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-  
trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that  
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be  
used to connect the surge protector to a 2-pole recep-  
tacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded out-  
let is not available.  
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD  
DANGER:  
Improper connection  
of the equipment-grounding conductor can  
result in an increased risk of electric shock.  
Check with a qualified electrician or service-  
man if you are in doubt as to whether the  
product is properly grounded. Do not modify  
the plug provided with the productÑif it will  
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet in-  
stalled by a qualified electrician.  
The temporary adapter should be used only until a  
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed  
by a qualified electrician.  
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending  
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent  
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.  
Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place  
by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box  
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-  
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is  
grounded before using an adapter.  
Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated  
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by  
sudden voltage changes in your homeÕs power.  
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can re-  
sult from weather conditions or from other appliances  
being turned on or off.  
To decrease the pos-  
sibility of your tread-

mode, the speed and incline of the treadmill can be  
changed with a touch of a button. As you exercise, the  
LED displays will provide continuous exercise feedback.  
The console also offers six preset workout programs:  
three programs automatically control the speed of the  
treadmill and three programs automatically control the  
incline of the treadmill as they guide you through effec-  
tive workouts. You can even create custom workout  
programs and store them in memory for future use.  
CAUTION:Before operating the  
console, read the following precautions.

ing on the power or starting the walking belt.  
¥ Always wear the clip (see M above) while  
operating the treadmill. If the key is pulled  
from the console, the walking belt will stop.  
An optional chest pulse sensor adds even more fea-  
tures to the console. The chest pulse sensor continu-  
ously monitors your heart rate during your workouts  
and allows you to use the consoleÕs two pulse-based  
workout programs. To purchase an optional chest  
pulse sensor, refer to page 15.  
¥ The treadmill is capable of high speeds;  
adjust the speed in small increments.  
¥ To reduce the risk of electric shock, keep the  
console dry. Avoid spilling liquid on the  
console and use only a sealable water bottle.  
Note: The console can display speed and distance  
in either miles or kilometers (see page 11). For  
convenience, all instructions in this section refer  
to miles.

REEBOK UNIVERSITY  
Reebok University was launched in 1993 to fulfill a  
vision to establish a Òuniversity without wallsÓ that  
develops quality, researched, state-of-the-art fitness  
programming for the fitness industry throughout the  
world.  
WALKING AND REDUCED RISK FOR CARDIOVAS-  
CULAR DISEASE  
Several studies have found that regular walking at any  
speed can increase HDL-C cholesterol (a high-density  
lipoprotein which removes excess cholesterol from the  
body) and can lower concentrations of blood triglyc-  
erides (a storage form of fat), thus reducing the risk for  
Working with the worldÕs best professionals, Reebok  
University has created a host of original programs,  
such as Step Reebok¨, Walk ReebokSM, Slide ReebokSM cardiovascular disease.  
and Reebok City JamSM. The industry has adopted  
Reebok programming as the ÒgoldÓ standard. Our  
guidelines and terminology are used by fitness profes-  
sionals and participants around the world, and our  
exceptional programming has been approved in the  
United States by AFAA and ACE for continuing educa-  
tion credits.  
Duncan and his colleagues3 concluded that exercise  
does not have to be vigorous to reduce cardiovascular  
risk factors. In other words, people who choose to  
stroll rather than walk briskly can reduce their risk for  
cardiovascular disease.  
After studying the physical activity patterns of 17,000  
Harvard alumni over a 20-year period, Paffenbarger  
and his colleagues4 concluded that walking as little as  
five city blocks per day can reduce the risk of cardio-  
vascular disease, and walking 2 miles per day can  
reduce the risk of a heart attack by 28% or more.  
Therefore, while walking at a fast pace will improve  
aerobic fitness, walking at any speed (slow or fast) can  
reduce a person's risk for heart disease.  
WALKING AND CARDIORESPIRATORY  
ENDURANCE  
Scientific studies confirm that  
walking at a moderate to brisk  
pace can enhance aero-  
bic fitness. Rippe and  
his colleagues1 found  
that of 500 subjects  
tested, 67% of the men  
and 90% of the women  
were able to reach their  
target heart rates by  
walking 4 to 4.5 miles  
per hour.  
WALKING AND WEIGHT REDUCTION  
Walking is an excellent activity for burning calories.  
The steeper the incline and/or the faster the speed, the  
more calories are burned. For example, a 150-pound  
person walking at 3.5 miles per hour on flat ground will  
burn about 300 calories per hour. This same person  
will burn 400 calories per hour on a gentle 4% incline  
and 500 calories per hour on a steeper 10% incline. If  
this person speeds the pace up to 4 miles per hour on  
level ground, 350 calories will be burned in one hour.5  
Pollock and his colleagues2 found that middle-aged  
men who walked at a pace of 3.5 to 4.5 miles per hour  
for 40 minutes four times per week had the same car-  
diovascular improvements as men the same age who  
jogged for 30 minutes three times per week. Although  
the intensity of exercise was lower for the walkers than  
the runners, the increased duration and frequency of  
walking provided the walkers with similar aerobic ben-  
efits as the runners.  
It should be noted that participants who do not wish to  
walk at faster speeds can burn a comparable number  
of calories by walking for longer periods of time.  
WALKING AND BONE DENSITY  
Osteoporosis is a major health problem in the United  
States, affecting an estimated 15 to 30 million people.  
An age-related disorder, osteoporosis reduces the  
density of bones. This disease can be life-threatening  
since many older people die as a result of complica-  
tions suffered from broken bones. Adequate calcium in  
the diet and weight-bearing exercises seem to reduce  
the risk of osteoporosis.  
On the basis of current research, it seems clear that  
walking at a moderate to brisk pace can be an excel-  
lent aerobic activity.

Several studies have reported that regular walking at  
moderate to brisk speeds appears to increase bone  
density. Specifically, Fradin and his colleagues6 found  
that 70-year-old subjects who walked at least 30 min-  
utes per day had higher bone mineral content than  
subjects who walked less than 30 minutes per day.  
Jones and his colleagues7 reported that sedentary  
women (aged 30 to 61 years old) who began a regular  
walking program and continued for one year increased  
their bone density.  
During a 24-week study, not one of 59 participants  
who walked five days a week at speeds between 3 and  
5 miles per hour sustained a walking-related injury that  
necessitated consulting with a physician. Carroll and  
his colleagues10 reported that 14% of the elderly sub-  
jects participating in a walking study suffered training-  
related orthopedic injuries, mostly to the lower leg and  
foot. The majority of injuries occurred in the group as-  
signed to "fast walking."  
It is important to note that all forms of exercise have  
some degree of risk associated with the activity.  
Generally, the less mechanical stress on the muscu-  
loskeletal system, the less risk of becoming injured.  
Because of the low-impact nature of walking, the inci-  
dence of injury appears to be low when compared to  
other high-impact activities.  
Since walking can be comfortably performed by people  
of any age, walking appears to be practical and effec-  
tive in reducing a person's risk for developing osteo-  
porosis.  
WALKING AND STRESS REDUCTION  
There are many stressors in today's society, including  
economic concerns, work-related pressures and the  
need to balance career goals with home responsibili-  
ties. People who are unable to cope with these types  
of stressors are often tense and anxious, and may  
even become physically or psychologically ill.

WALKING AND INJURIES  
Walking is often associated with a low injury rate.  
Walking is considered to be a "low impact" activity be-  
cause one foot remains in contact with the ground at  
all times. Walking at speeds of 3 miles per hour pro-  
duces vertical impact forces that are around 1.25 times  
body weight, whereas running at 7 miles per hour in-  
creases vertical impact forces to more than 2.5 times  
body weight.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES  
Fat Burning  
WARNING:  
Before beginning this  
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively  
low intensity level for a sustained period of time.  
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body  
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for en-  
ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body  
begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal  
is to burn fat, adjust the speed or incline of the tread-  
mill until your heart rate is near the lowest number in  
your training zone.  
or any exercise program, consult your physi-  
cian. This is especially important for individu-  
als over the age of 35 or individuals with pre-  
existing health problems.  
The following guidelines will help you to plan your ex-  
ercise program. RememberÑthese are general guide-  
lines only. For more detailed exercise information, ob-  
tain a reputable book or consult your physician.  
For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed or incline  
of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middle  
number in your training zone.  
EXERCISE INTENSITY  
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your  
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the  
Aerobic Exercise  
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.  
The proper intensity level can be found by using your  
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-  
mended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.  
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-  
tem, your exercise must be Òaerobic.Ó Aerobic exercise  
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for pro-  
longed periods of time. This increases the demand on  
the heart to pump blood to the muscles and on the  
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise, ad-  
just the speed or incline of the treadmill until your heart  
rate is near the highest number in your training zone.  
WORKOUT GUIDELINES  
Each workout should include the following three parts:  
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age  
near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to  
the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers  
above your age. The three numbers define your Òtrain-  
ing zone.Ó The lower two numbers are recommended  
heart rates for fat burning; the higher number is the  
recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.  
A Warm-upÑStart each workout with 5 to 10 minutes  
of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up in-  
creases your body temperature, heart rate and circula-  
tion in preparation for exercise.  
Training Zone ExerciseÑAfter warming up, increase  
the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is in  
your training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the  
first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep  
your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20  
minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exer-  
ciseÑnever hold your breath.  
To measure your  
heart rate, stop  
exercising and  
place two fingers on  
your wrist as shown.  
Take a six-second  
heartbeat count,  
and multiply the  
result by ten to find  
your heart rate.  
A Cool-downÑFinish each workout with 5 to 10 min-  
utes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the  
flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-ex-  
ercise problems.  
(A six-second count is used because your heart rate  
drops quickly when you stop exercising.) If your heart  
rate is too high or too low, adjust the speed or incline  
of the treadmill accordingly.  
Exercise Frequency  
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three  
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest  
between workouts. After a few months, you may  
complete up to five workouts each week if desired.
