HINTS AND TIPS FOR GETTING STARTED
The following hints and tips will assist in training your users to maximize the fitness benefits of yourTreadClimber.
Walk at a rate that feels comfortable and most natural, yet is sufficiently vigorous to get a good cardio workout. When
using the TreadClimber for the first time or after an extended absence, keep the level set to level 1 and build up the
walking speed prior to adjusting to more challenging levels.
Try different walking rhythms. In manual operation, adjust your pace from low speed to high speed, then back to low.
As you become more comfortable with the machine try going faster or using the preset programs.
Watch the Graphic Display to anticipate incline level changes. When you use the preset programs, the display shows
changes in incline level as tall or short columns. The display also notifies you of incline level changes with a series of
beeps and a flashing display element.
For best workout, use the highest incline level that you can safely control. Using a more challanging incline level
will greatly increase your work effort and calorie burn, even at low speed.
