Pausing Or Stopping - Bowflex TreadClimber 3000 Owner's Manual

Getting Started
The suggested Workout Level Guide shown is based on average
fitness levels and a belt speed of 2 MPH (3.2 KMH) or slower. You
should always assess whether that setting is right for you based
on your individual needs and fitness level and adjust your Workout
Level settings accordingly.
Your personal setting will depend on four factors:
• Your weight
• Your fitness level
• The average speed of the belts during your workout
• How deep you want to step
Workout Level settings may be adjusted incrementally if that best
suits your body weight, fitness level and workout preferences (for
example, midway between Levels 2 and 3).
To increase your overall calorie burn, raise your belt speed or raise

Workout Level Settings
Workout Level Guide
your Workout Level setting one or two levels above your suggested level. Raising your Workout Level allows you to take
deeper steps, helping your abdominal, gluteus, quadriceps and lower back muscles to work harder, burning more calories,
particularly at higher belt speeds.
As your endurance levels increase, you may find that your Workout Level has risen; however, make sure that you select a
low enough setting that you don't "bottom out" the treadles.
Note: "Bottoming out" occurs when the Treadle travels through too great a range of motion. When this occurs,
the Treadles hit against the base on the down step. To reduce Treadle travel, turn the setting dial
counterclockwise (to a lower number) or increase the belt speed.
It may be helpful to record your dial setting for future reference when there are multiple users of the machine.
TC3000 or TC5000 only--Any time you change the Workout Level dial settings, you also need to input that Workout Level
into the console during setup so that the CALORIE display accurately reflects calories burned.
Note: If your actual Workout Level Setting is incremental, input your level as the nearest whole number.
