Getting Started
• Always wear the Safety Key clip attached to your clothing during workouts to be prepared to stop the belts quickly, if
ever necessary.
8. Begin your workout using the appropriate instructions for your selected workout mode.
Note: Resistance and weight settings are what your Bowflex
®
TreadClimber
®
exercise machine uses to calculate
your calories burned. If your Workout Level or weight changes, you must remember to change your settings
on the console to ensure accurate calorie burn calculation.
Keep your hands on the support Handlebars and stay as near the front of the machine as is comfortable in order to
stay in balance on the Treadles.
Keep your foot in the center of each Treadle. Do not let your feet cross in front of your body as you increase the
speed.
When you are experienced and comfortable with the action of the machine, you can allow your arms to swing freely in
a natural walking motion. This workout will activate your core muscles. It should only be done by those comfortable with
not holding on to the Handlebars.
Hydraulic Cylinder Adjustment (Workout Level)
CONSULT yOUR PhySICIAN BEFORE STARTING ANy ExERCISE PROGRAM.
Only he or she can determine the exercise program that is appropriate for
your particular age and condition. If you are new to exercise, are
pregnant, have a heart condition or any physical limitation, failure to
consult your physician before engaging in physical exercise, such as
using the Bowflex TreadClimber
®
exercise machine, could result in
serious injury or death. If while using the Bowflex
®
TreadClimber
®
exercise machine you have any pain, tightness in your chest, an irregular
heartbeat, shortness of breath, feel faint, light-headed, dizzy or have any
pain or discomfort, STOP and consult your physician immediately.
Your TreadClimber
®
machine uses Hydraulic Cylinders to absorb your steps
and cushion your joints, decreasing your overall fatigue and reducing muscle
strain. The displacement of the Treadles is adjusted by the dials on the Hydraulic
Cylinders. Workout Level settings range from 1 to 12. The 1 setting is the minimum
amount of Treadle movement; the 12 setting is the maximum movement. More
treadle movement results in a more intense workout
Begin with each cylinder set to 6 on the dial. If this setting allows too much
Treadle travel, adjust the dial toward 1 (counterclockwise) until you are
comfortable with the amount of travel. If you find that the Treadles do not move
enough to cushion your steps, adjust the dial setting toward the 12 (clockwise),
to allow more Treadle movement. The Treadles should be set so they displace
enough to absorb the impact of your stepping motion, approximately 3 inches.
Note:
Although the Workout Level dial can move continuously in either direction,
it is recommended that you only rotate the dial clockwise to setting 12 and
counterclockwise to setting 1.
Do not change the intensity settings of the Cylinders during a workout.
Stop the TreadClimber
®
belts and step off the machine before you adjust the
resistance level. Failure to do so could result in injury.
