Question: ProForm EKG Treadmill?


Question Description:
Has anyone ever created their own program/music disks for the ProForm 760EKG treadmill - specifically how to create the command signals that program the on-board computer?I'd like to create my own program disks with my own background music with a training program specifically for myself.

Answer#1: In my whole career (about 30 Years of using an EKG threadmill I have witnessed many changes brought to the threadmillls.Your idea is a brillant one and really deserves serious consideration .Among many other parameters you should consider the1. The high intensity level as when the heart rate reaches (220-age)x 80%. The low intensity being (220xage)x60%.2.The background music can be made to have a synchronuos beat with the heart rate. That will help tremendously in many ways.3.You can adjust the programme where you have varying intensity i.e. speed or/and slope angle at various time and for varying duration ..... just to keep stimulatinng the muscles.4 etc. etc.Go for it If you are' computer programming' inclined.
