Eight Challenging Preset Programs

You'll stay motivated about reaching or maintaining your fitness goals with eight preset programs to choose from.

P1: Time Goal Program - Once the user selects this program they are prompted to enter the amount of time the program will run. Then the user starts the treadmill and the treadmill will count down the time specified and other displays will count up until the treadmill stops. The user still manually adjusts speed and inclines during the workout.

P2: Distance Goal Program - Once the user selects this program they are prompted to enter the total distance the program will run. The user then starts the treadmill and the treadmill will count down the distance from the amount specified. The lap counter will display the target number of laps and count down as each lap is completed. The user still manually adjusts speed and inclines during the workout.

P3: Calorie Goal Program - Once the user selects this program they are prompted to enter the amount of calories they wish to burn during the workout. The calories display will count down from the pre-set calories and the other displays will count up until the treadmill stops. The user still manually adjusts speed and inclines during the workout

P4: Killer Hills Program - The user chooses their workout level from 1 thru 12. The higher the level selected results in higher incline levels during the workout. The Time LED shows a pre-set workout time of 24 minutes; which can be adjusted higher or lower in four minute segments. Incline is changed automatically every two minutes during the workout, from a minimum grade % to a maximum grade % until the time counts down to zero. For example: Level 1 Minimum grade % 0, Maximum grade % 4; Level 12 Minimum grade % 11, Maximum grade % 15. Speed is pre-set at 3 km/h and can be adjusted manually to what the user desires.

P5: Speed Interval Program - Speed interval program similiar to incline interval program only with adjustable speeds.

The Time LED shows a pre-set workout time of 30 minutes; which can be adjusted higher or lower in five minute segments. Both speed and incline will change during the workout; the minimum speed/incline segments last two minutes, and the maximum speed/incline segments last three minutes. For example: Level 1 Minimum speed 2.5 km/h Minimum incline 0%, Maximum speed 4.5 km/h Maximum incline 3%; Level 12 Minimum speed 6 km/h Minimum grade 4%, Maximum speed 8km/h Maximum incline 14%.

P8: Heart Rate Control Program - This program consists of a Warm Up, Main Program and Cool Down. The Time LED is pre-set to 60 minutes, but can be adjusted up or down by the user.

The Smooth® 8.25e treadmill includes a free chest strap. The following accessories are available with your Smooth® 8.25e treadmill:

• Chest strap:
  This uncoded chest strap allows you to stay in your ideal heart rate range for optimal training results. This is the most precise way of measuring your heart rate.

  This gel improves the quality of motion and minimizes the friction between the running belt and the deck. During average use (3-5 hrs per week) it should be applied every 6 month.

  We recommend the use of this durable mat with your fitness equipment. It absorbs noise and prevents damage to delicate flooring such as wood (195 cm x 108,5 cm).

These items can be ordered under accessories.

What a massive machine, its just about like the ones I am used to from the gym. Only now I can work out at home, no bag to pack and the car can stay in the garage. I am more than satisfied. The only problem I encountered was that a couple of plastic parts got broken during transport. I called the service phone and replacements arrived fairly quickly.
