Program Profiles
There are numerous programs available to help you add structure and variety
to your exercise program.
Preset Programs
Remember, if you simply get on your treadmill and go at the same pace, for the
same amount of time everyday your body will only improve to the level of the
workouts you are pushing yourself to do. To help get the most out of your time
spent exercising, LifeSpan treadmills include a full range of workout programs.
All programs are available in either “Speed” or “Incline” mode with 3 levels of
intensity that you select during program set-up. When the “Speed” mode is
selected, the belt speed will vary during your workout while the incline level
stays constant. In “Incline” mode the speed remains constant while the incline
is adjusted by the program. In either mode you have full control of the setting
that is not being controlled by the program.
To complement these preset programs you also can design your own Custom
User Program or use either of the two types of Heart Rate Control training
programs.
Custom User Programs
There are two user programs that provide you with the ability to build custom
program profiles for your specific workout requirements. In Custom User
Programs you set the workout time and then for each of the 20 program
segments you set the speed and incline. This program is different than
our preset programs in that both speed and incline can be controlled
simultaneously. As such, the program matrix display readout will show both
incline and speed at the same time with the incline on the left portion of the
matrix and the speed on the right portion of the matrix.
