 Program Descriptions

Speed and Incline Programs

All Smooth Programmable treadmills are equipped with eight different programs to add
variety to your workout.  Each program is evenly divided into 10 equal segments.  The
workout computer will automatically divide any selected workout time by 10 to give you
equal segment lengths.  We provide you with four different program examples, from which
you can develop and program your own workouts in the computer’s memory.  All Factory
Defined programs come pre-packaged with warm up and cool down periods at the begin-
ning and end of each program to help you exercise properly.

Factory Defined Exercise Programs

Programs P1 through P4 are generalized programs that are provided as simple examples
of workouts and the results that may occur as a result of these workouts.  

Consult your

physician before beginning any exercise program and do not exceed their guidelines.

NOTE:

  Factory Defined selections are characterized by programs that are pre-

determined by our team of exercise experts.  You may change these programs, but any
changes will be erased and set back to their original program when the treadmill is turned
off.

Definition of the Factory Defined Programs
P1 - Interval Trainer -

 This program is designed to increase your endurance and build

your lung power through periods of work load and rest.  This is an extremely popular form of
training for athletes that experience periods of work load and rest during performance.

P2 - Thigh Burner

 - This program is designed to gradually increase the work load using

incline while maintaining a somewhat constant speed.  This hill profile is designed to burn
away fat in the thigh area by concentrating the intense workout on the thighs.

P3 - Cardio Conditioner

 - For the majority of people, work loads indicated in this pro-

gram are similar to those experienced while using Heart Rate Control.  Through this pro-
cess, the cardiovascular system is strengthened.

P4 - Weight Manager

 - By using varying work loads, this program creates interest and

helps you stick with your workout.  Through this process, it gives you the opportunity to
improve your fitness while gradually replacing fat with muscle.
