A variety of exercise options are available on the M9.55. Descriptions of the courses
printed on the display console label are described in this section. The information
includes:
• brief course descriptions • creating and using custom courses
• using the Manual program • using the preprogrammed courses
• setting parameters for the interval courses
When using the treadmill, follow these general guidelines:
• At the beginning of a workout, take several minutes to bring your heart rate into
your training zone, shown in Diagram 17.
• After your workout, walk slowly for several minutes to cool down your body and
lower your heart rate. If possible, use the cool-down feature on your treadmill.
• Before and after a workout, gently stretch your lower body and back to help
prevent stiffness or soreness.
Course Features and Course Descriptions
The courses on the M9.55 can be categorized into 4 different groups: infinite, fixed
distance, time, or calorie goal, custom, and programmed.
• An
infinite-type course is not limited by distance or time. It continues until you
press the red Stop button. The automatic 5-minute cool-down period is not
appended to these types of courses.
• A fixed-type course is limited by distance, time, or calorie goal. When you
complete this type of course, the automatic 5-minute cool-down period begins. If
your workout progress is time-based, then the display shows the remaining time
in your workout. If the course you choose is distance or calorie-based, then the
TIME display indicates the amount of time you have spent in your work out.
• A user-programmed course lets you determine the speed and incline of the course
and save it for future use. These types of courses include: Custom, Interval, and
Goal. Two
custom courses are available on the M9.55 for each user I.D. In the
Custom and Interval courses, each segment (column) of the display represents 1
minute. The amount of time spent in the workout session appears in the TIME
display.
• The five preprogrammed courses provide fixed time or distance. In each course,
the incline automatically changes to its present condition as you progress through
the course profile. You can override the incline using the Incline
▼▲
keys for each
upcoming segment in the course profile. The profile changes accordingly, but the
incline position is not saved should you use this course at another time. When you
complete a
programmed course, the automatic 5-minute cool-down period begins.
The progress that you make during the course is tracked by a blinking cursor. If the
column is several segments high, the entire column blinks. Several courses provide a
“percent complete” prompt that appears as you progress through the course.
The different course numbers and names appear on the following pages along with a
description of the course features.
