Several models of the NordicTrack treadmill line support the iFit, or interactive fitness, feature. iFit is powered by Google Maps. With iFit you can download customized workouts, create workouts, track your progress and map out running and trail routes. To use the iFit feature, you will need an iFit.com account, a personal computer with a USB port and a wireless Internet connection. The initial setup can take up to two hours. Once you initialize the program, you access iFit directly from the treadmill's console.

Go to iFit.com and register for an account. Click on the "Register Now" link at the top-right corner of the page. Enter the activation code that came with your unit. You will also be prompted for information about yourself and your fitness goals.
