The Weslo Cadence treadmill provides
feedback through the LCD screen on the console. This is divided up into
three sections. On the left display, exercise time and theoretical
calorie consumption are displayed in rotation as well as the current
incline (displayed whenever the incline is changed). The middle of the displays
shows a quarter mile track to demonstrate distance being covered in a
visual fasion. The right hand segment of the LCD rotates between the distance
covered in the run and the speed. Another handy feature of the console is
the selection of direct speed keys that enable the running belt speed to be
changed with a single press (2, 4,6,8, 10, 12, 14, 16kph).
Pulse measurement is carried out by standing on the anti-slip footrails
and using placing the thumb on the pulse sensor on the consolea. After
approximately 15 seconds, the measured rate is displayed.
The 8 programmes are split into
two groups of 4 programmes. The first group are weight loss
programmes and consist of two 30 minute programmes, one 35 minute and one
45 minute programme. The second group are intensity training workouts that
vary in duration from 20 minutes to 45 minutes. These programmes
automatically adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill and the programme
profiles are printed on the console.
The Weslo Cadence 21.0 has a folding
mechanism with a side locking latch to secure the running deck in place when
folded and also has transport wheels.
