For the 2012 F3 treadmill, Life Fitness created 2 different consoles: Track console & Go console. The first provides enhanced customization, tracking options and entertainment features. This console is also available to purchase with the F3 treadmill (for $3000), but we will review it with another model from Life Fitness.

The Go console offers 13 workout programs, a wireless heart rate chest strap, 2 user profiles, 1 custom workout/ user profile, Energy Saver mode and Race mode.

The 4″ x 6″ LCD with blue background and white characters offers feedback on calories, distance, speed, incline, time, heart rate, target heart rate, METs, pace. The Low/ Med/ High button changes the incline to a preset value. The Walk/ Jog/ Run button changes the speed to a preset value.

As all the other treadmills launched by Life Fitness, this treadmill has a built-in heart rate monitoring system, the hand pulse sensors. You also get the wireless telemetry heart rate monitoring system.

With the Go console, you’ll be getting Manual, Random, Hill, EZ Incline/ Resistance, Goal workouts, 2 Custom workouts, Time-based Goal training and Distance-based Goal training.

With the Race mode, users can outrun themselves against a computer-simulated pacer. The Cool down mode is based on specific time, incline and heart rate and makes sure you return to a proper heart rate level at the end of the workout. You can also activate the Warm-up mode, 2 user profiles, Go system 1-Touch Quick Start and On-the-Fly programming that allows you to surf between programs without restarting or losing the your current workout info.
