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-

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
you through every step of your workout. High-energy
music provides added motivation. Each CD features two
programs designed by certified personal trainers.
The advanced console offers an impressive array of
features to make your workouts more effective. When
the console is in the manual 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.
In addition, you can connect the treadmill to your VCR
and TV and play iFit.com video programs (videocas-
settes are available separately). Video programs offer
the same benefits as iFit.com CD programs, but add
the excitement of working out with a class and an
instructorÑthe hottest new trend at health clubs.
The console also offers eight preset workout programsÑ
four programs that focus on fat-burning and four pro-
grams that target aerobic conditioning. Each program
automatically controls the speed and incline of the
treadmill as it guides you through an effective workout.
You can even create your own custom workout programs
and store them in memory for future use.
With the treadmill connected to your computer, you can
access basic programs, audio programs, and video
programs directly from the internet. And by adding an
optional iFit.com module to the treadmill, you can use
virtually endless features from our internet site. See
www.iFit.com for complete details. To purchase
iFit.com CDÕs or videocassettes or an optional
iFit.com module, call toll-free 1-800-735-0768.
The console also features new iFit.com interactive tech-
nology. IFit.com technology is like having a personal
trainer right in your home. Using the included audio
cable, you can connect the treadmill to your home
stereo, portable stereo, or computer and play special
iFit.com CD programs (CDÕs are available separately).
IFit.com CD programs automatically control the speed
and incline of the treadmill as a personal trainer guides
The console is also compatible with an optional heart
rate monitor that continuously monitors your heart rate
during your workouts. To purchase an optional heart
rate monitor, refer to page 17.

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.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretchÑnever bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward
from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you
reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings,
back of knees and back.
1
2. Hamstring Stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot
2
toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended
leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches:
Hamstrings, lower back and groin.
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your
hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your
back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and
3
move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the
achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches:
4
Calves, achilles tendons and ankles.
4. Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and
grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close
to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip
muscles.
5. Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward.
Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold
for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches:
Quadriceps and hip muscles.
