The FITNESS TEST program is designed to measure
your relative fitness level. For the best results, the
FITNESS TEST should be taken at a time when your
energy level is high. The FITNESS TEST should not be
taken if you have already exercised during the day.
The FITNESS TEST program consists of seven 4-
minute periods, and is followed by a 2-minute cool-
down period. The speed and/or incline of the treadmill
will automatically increase at the beginning of each 4-
minute period.
