Cooling Down After Your Workout
Cooling down is an important aspect of your workout because it helps reduce muscle
stiffness and soreness by transporting excess lactic acid out of the working muscles.
Cooling down for at least three minutes helps provide a smooth transition that allows
your heart rate to return to its normal (non-exercising) state.
When you enter cool down, a message notifies you that you have reached the end of
the course and the cool-down period is about to begin. The running belt slows by about
20 percent and the incline returns to 0 percent. The Manual course profile appears in
the display. You can change the speed and incline by pressing the respective ▼ or ▲
keys. When you complete the five minute, cool down, a Workout Summary appears.
See the information beginning on page 23.
Important: The automatic five-minute cool down does not occur if the selected TIME for
the course is NOLIM. In any other course, the automatic five-minute cool down is
activated when you complete the course. If you exit a course prior to its completion, then
the cool down program is not implemented.
To prematurely end the five minute cool-down period, press the red Stop button and
then Reset. Refer to the table on the next page. Your workout statistics are added to
the cumulative totals while the running belt slows to a gradual stop. The Workout
Summary display appears so you can review your cumulative totals.
The following information shows what happens when you press certain keys while in
the Cool down mode.
