And I really lucked out buying a Proform treadmill with the ifit program.Heres the run-down: is the old Ifit system that ties into my Proform treadmill.
Its a website that has some basic free workouts, and some fancier paid workouts. Ifit S For Treadmill Code Embedded InThe workouts are a visual display showing bar graphs of your speedincline, that have an audio beep code embedded in them. You plug you computers audio output into the treadmill, and the treadmill interprets the beeps into incline and speed adjustments. Update: Dicks Sporting Goods sells a Proform 810 TR similar to mine with the ifit.com technology. The really cool thing about this old system, is that some guy wrote a program that lets you create your own ifit workouts. Ifit S For Treadmill Download The FileI ran across a description of this program by accident, and then I had a hard time finding a place to download the file. The guy no longer distributes or supports the program, so Im hoping he doesnt mind that Im putting it here on my website. A nag screen will appear after 30 days telling you to register. You cant register it tho, because they guy isnt selling it any more. You can still use it after 30 days, but you have to wait for the nag screen to timeout. This version lets you mix music into your workouts and allows you export a mp3 or wave file. ![]() No audio, but it works great for creating workouts and doesnt ever give you a nag screen. If you dont need audio and plan on connecting your treadmill directly to your computer, use this one. You can even save the workouts for later as a text file; and its a snap to easily create more workouts by simply copying the text file format using notepad. If you dont have an ifit compatible treadmill, you could still use the i2Workout program to create your workouts. Then just use the beeps as a cue to manually adjust the speed and incline of your treadmill. Of course, your treadmill has to be near your computer I used this i2Workout program to create a tempo run workout, with 5 minute warmup, 20 minutes at a pace of 8, and a 5 minute cooldown. I totally sucked at this workout (meaning I could not do it without some unplanned rest), and I hated every minute of it. My philosophy, tho, is that the workouts you hate the most are probably the best for you.:-( Heres more info about the Ifit: is the newer system. Its just a paid workout site that lets you watch videos while you do your workout. Nordic Track makes a couple of treadmill models that come with Ifit memory cards. Im guessing that you plug the card directly into the treadmill, and the treadmill has some built in computer that runs the programs. I dont know if the workouts are customizable. ![]()
