Treadmill Question

  • Hi there,

    I recently joined a gym, and I am having trouble figuring out the treadmill. I have done a fair bit of running outside, but these machines are getting the best of me!

    How do I set up intervals? I have tried using the programs on the machine (lifefitness brand), but I always stop cause the warm up seems super slow! Is there a way to tell it what I want to do, or do I have to manually change the speed all the time?
  • Try looking up the user manual online to that model. Can you tell when you are there which model it is?

    A.
  • If you can't find a program that's acceptable to nothing wrong with changing it manually.
  • The staff at the gym should help you learn the equipment. Many pre-programmed workouts kinda suck.
    I wish my treadmill (at home) would let me create my own programs, but I just have to do it the old fashioned way (i.e.: increase and decrease settings on the fly )
  • I HATE programs!!! There never EXACTLY what I need....solution - adjust MANUALLY! Works for me.
  • Yep manually works for me too.
