HINTS AND TIPS FOR GETTING STARTED
The following hints and tips will assist in training your users to maximize the fitness benefits of your STAR TRAC S-TBTx
TOTAL BODY TRAINER.
n Stride at a rate that feels comfortable and most natural, yet is sufficiently vigorous to get a good cardio
workout.
n Try different striding rhythms. In manual operation, vary your striding speed from slow to fast, then back to slow.
As you become more comfortable with your trainer, try striding faster, varying the difficulty LEVEL, or using the preset
programs.
n Watch the Graphic Display to anticipate terrain changes. When you use the preset programs, the display shows
changes in terrain as tall or short columns.
COOLDOWN CYCLE
In most programs, once you have completed your workout, the trainer enters a two-minute Cooldown cycle.
NOTE: The software is programmed to properly decrease striding difficulty to provide a cooldown.
