EXCERCISE TREADMILLS

About Treadmills: Treadmills provide a low impact method for walking or jogging. Walking is still considered one of the most beneficial cardiovascular exercises for people of all ages, body types, and fitness levels. As a fundamental form of aerobic training, walking has numerous physical benefits for the heart, lungs, and circulatory system, while also increasing muscle tone and burning fat calories. Treadmills provide a convenient way to regularly exercise in all weather conditions in the comfort and safety of your own home.

The Motor - The motor is the heart of the treadmill. It provides the power to move the excercise tread. Motors are rated in horsepower (hp). In general terms, a larger motor can handle heavier loads and not strain as much. All of our top-rated treadmills over $700 have motor warranties of 10 years or greater. If you weigh more, and/or will be doing jogging or very fast walking, you should get a treadmill with a more powerful motor.

Treadmills with the most powerful motors include: the award winning Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill, the Sole TT8 Treadmill, the Sole F80 Treadmill, and the Sole F85 Treadmill.

The Belt/Tread - This is the surface that you will be walking or jogging on. The size of this is important. A belt that is too narrow in width will be difficult to jog or run on as your feet tend to stray left and right a little bit. A tread that is too short means you risk running off the end of the treadmill. All of the top-rated treadmills above have larger widths and lengths and should fulfill most uses. Also important is the cushioning of the tread. More expensive models have variable cushioning. You can vary how much "bounce" the treadmill has so that you can make it more appropriate for your style of exercise.

Electronic Screen - Most treadmills come with an electronic screen that tells you how long you have been on the treadmill, the level of difficulty, the speed, and even heart rate. More expensive treadmills come with a number of built in performance programs.

You get what you pay for - This is especially important in treadmills. Lower priced treadmills will not be built as well as expensive ones. Those that use heavy duty parts and are heavier, should last longer, and generally will have longer warranties. We have seen below average reviews for many treadmills, especially the lower priced ones. Heavier treadmills (those weighing more than 250lbs.) should feel more like gym treadmills.

Price of Treadmills - We have found Amazon.com to be very competitive on the prices of treadmills and other excercise equipment. (Savings up to 40% off). You may find the price much cheaper than local stores, and you generally do not pay sales tax, and in many cases Amazon provides free shipping. Keep in mind that most people will have a treadmill delivered even if they buy from a local store, as they can weigh anywhere from 100 - 300 lbs.

Maximum User Weight - This is the maximum recommended weight for a given treadmill. Smart-Review has listed the maximum user weight for each top rated treadmill. Choose a treadmill that is above your weight. The heavier the treadmill, the more stable. Generally the higher weight capacity, the higher the cost of the treadmill.

Treadmills with the maximum user weight include the Bowflex Series 7 Treadmill (300 lbs.), the Sole F80 Treadmill (350 lbs.), the Sole F85 Treadmill (400 lbs.), and the Nautilus Sport Series T5.18 (375 lbs.), the LifeSpan Fitness TR 2000-HRC Treadmill (375 lbs.)

Folding Treadmill - Most treadmills fold up so you can store the treadmill in a smaller space. Some treadmills do not fold up, so once assembled, you generally do not move them. Commercial public gym treadmills are most likely to be the non-folding type, and can add to somewhat more stability than the folding types.

Assembly Required - Almost all treadmills, whether bought from the local store or online require some assembly. One exception to assembly is the new popular Horizon Evolve SG Compact Treadmill which comes fully assembled, and is easy to move and store as well (this treadmill has a maximum user weight of 250 lbs.).
