Patented Nautilus CAM
1
Pivot
Point
Cam
2
Cam
As the cam rotates from position 1 to 2,
the distance from the pivot point to the
weight plate shortens, which has the
effect of reducing the load, thereby
resulting in a more uniform muscle effort
throughout each repetition.
At position 3, the distance between
your elbow and the dumbbell and
the force required to complete the
curl are at their greatest.
The oval-shaped cam automatically
changes the resistance force by
moving the chain closer to, or farther
from, the axis of rotation.

Facts
Nitro Plus and Nitro:
Biomechanical and functional parts are exactly the same. The only differences are esthetic and design
changes. Nitro does not include: contour-shaped upholstery, fully shrouded weight stack, non
standard color option (extra charge).

Kevlar Belt
 Tested over 1 million cycles
 1” belt is rated at 3,900 LBF (17,348 Newton or 1,769 kilo pound)
 3/16 cables have a higher friction, are less durable, and need large pulley areas (at least 120mm)
 Will last the lifetime of the machine
 Will not stretch after initial adjustments which results in minimum energy loss due to bending that can be mistaken
for friction

Moving Parts
 Tested over 500,000 cycles
 Bearings are lifetime sealed and self lubricated
 Non slip neoprene grips
 Weight stack precision of +/- 1%
 High fiber belt pulleys

Frame
 11/12 gauge mechanical steel frame tubing (min. tensile strength 50,000 psi)
 Polished tubing 32 (50 and 180 grit sanding)
 ASTM conformed powder coating (conformed for: adhesion and resistance to bending, impact, corrosion, and
damage

Discussion
•The TreadClimber had a higher HR than the Treadmill at
a rating of perceived exertion 3 (moderate) during submaximal exercise, indicating that the TreadClimber may
be more effective in eliciting a good cardiovascular
response than the Treadmill when exercising at
moderate workloads. The higher HR may be due to
recruiting more muscle groups, especially the stabilizing
muscles.
•During recovery from the maximal exercise test, at the
same exertion level, the HR for the TreadClimber was
significantly higher than all other modalities followed by
the Elliptical.

Conclusion:
TreadClimber may be the best exercise modality
 Less impact on joints and tendons than treadmills
 Moderate exertion level
 Caloric expenditures are higher than other modalities
 TreadClimber elicited higher heart rate and lower lactate
levels indicating a better ability to burn more calories
 TreadClimber demonstrated significantly lower fatigue
levels than bikes, ellipticals, or treadmills

Product Information
Walking. The New Running.
The new Nautilus® TreadClimber® cardio machine provides a runner's workout at a walker's pace. Its unique design combines low impact
walking with gradual hill climbing providing the user with the intense results of running.
You Don't Have To Run
Members look great on it and it works for anyone from fitness novice to fitness enthusiast. At a lower speed than with a conventional
treadmill, members don't feel like they are working as hard. However, when they check their heart rate, they're amazed that it is much
higher than expected.
Safe For All
The user's foot steps are absorbed by the falling treadles. The user doesn't feel the impact that they would running or even walking on a
treadmill.
Experts Agree
In clinical tests at New York's Adelphi University, it takes less than half the time to burn the same amount of calories on a TreadClimber®
machine than on a treadmill - at comparable speeds.
Just Plain Fun
Members love new equipment and are eager to try new exercises. Everyone looks great on it and will look great after using it and making it
a regular part of their regular gym routine.
The Nautilus® TreadClimber® machine, the next generation in cardio equipment. Get on and get results.
