How Does it Work
To start using the Pro 2000 you first need to step on the foot rails of the treadmill. You then attach the clip to your clothing and insert the safety key into the treadmill console. After a few moments the display will turn on and you can then either select a program or manual mode. Once your desired option is selected you then hit the start button (or speed increase button). The treadmill will start at 1 mph and then after a few moments continue to the speed of the first time segment of your program, or if you are in manual mode you can then select your desired speed.
Programmed workouts are divided into equal time segments. Each time segment represents a certain speed and incline. While working out the current time segment you are in will flash on the display. If you change your speed or incline during a pre-programed workout program after the next time segment/interval the machine will reset the speed and incline to the preprogrammed levels. The treadmill will stop after the program is completed or if you press the stop button or pull on the safety key.
Workout Programs
The Pro 2000 comes with 32 workout programs designed by certified personal trainers to burn calories and simulate certain running conditions. These programs automatically change the speed and incline during your workout. These changes also depends on the level (intensity) you chose for the program along with what your heart rate is. You access workouts by pressing (one or more times) either the Calorie, Speed, Incline, or Intensity buttons, until your desired workout appears in the display.
