Heart rate is important but listening to your body also has a lot of advantages. There are more
variables involved in how hard you should workout than just heart rate. Your stress level,
physical health, emotional health, temperature, humidity, the time of day, the last time you ate
and what you ate, all contribute to the intensity at which you should workout. If you listen to
your body, it will tell you all of these things.
The rate of perceived exertion (RPE), also know as the Borg scale, was developed by
Swedish physiologist G.A.V. Borg. This scale rates exercise intensity from 6 to 20
depending upon how you feel or the perception of your effort.
The scale is as follows:
Rating Perception of Effort
6 Minimal
7 Very,very light
8 Very,very light +
9 Very light
10 Very light +
11 Fairly light
12 Comfortable
13 Somewhat hard
14 Somewhat hard +
15 Hard
16 Hard +
17 Very hard
18 Very hard +
19 Very,very hard
20 Maximal
You can get an approximate heart rate level for each rating by simply adding a zero to each
rating. For example a rating of 12 will result in an approximate heart rate of 120 beats per
minute. Your RPE will vary depending up the factors discussed earlier. That is the major
benet of this type of training. If your body is strong and rested, you will feel strong and your
pace will feel easier. When your body is in this condition, you are able to train harder and the
RPE will support this. If you are feeling tired and sluggish, it is because your body needs a
break. In this condition, your pace will feel harder. Again, this will show up in your RPE and
you will train at the proper level for that day.
Rate of Perceived Exertion
Tread-belt Tension Adjustment - Belt tension is not critical for most users. It is very important
though for joggers and runners in order to provide a smooth, steady running surface. Adjust-
ment must be made from the rear roller with the 6mm Allen wrench provided in the parts
package. The adjustment bolts are located at the end of the step rails as shown in the dia-
gram below.
Tighten the rear roller only enough to prevent
slippage at the front roller. Turn the tread-belt
tension adjusting bolts 1/4 turn each and inspect
for proper tension by walking on the belt and
making sure it is not slipping or hesitating with
each step. When an adjustment is made to the
belt tension, you must be sure to turn the bolts on
both sides evenly or the belt could start tracking to
one side instead of running in the middle of the deck.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN – Over tightening will cause belt damage and premature bearing
failure. If you tighten the belt a lot and it still slips, the problem could actually be the drive belt
- located under the motor cover - that connects the motor to the front roller. If that belt is loose
it feels similar to the walking belt being loose. Tightening the motor belt should be done by a
trained service person.
Belt and Deck - Your treadmill uses a very high-efcient low-friction deck. Performance is
maximized when the deck is kept as clean as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth or paper towel
to wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and frame. Also reach as
far as practical directly under the belt edge. This should be done once every other month to
extend belt and deck life. Use water only - no cleaners or abrasives. A mild soap and water
solution along with a nylon scrub brush will clean the top of the textured belt. Allow the belt
to dry before using.
Belt Dust - This occurs during normal break-in or until the belt stabilizes. Wiping excess off
with a damp cloth will minimize buildup.
General Cleaning - Dirt, dust, and pet hair can block air inlets and accumulate on the running
belt. On a monthly basis: vacuum underneath your treadmill to prevent buildup. Every other
month, you should remove the black motor hood and carefully vacuum out dirt that may
accumulate. UNPLUG POWER CORD BEFORE THIS TASK.
There is a maintenance schedule/chart included under the Table of Contents for convenient
record keeping.
