How to Find the Best Treadmills

The treadmill is an excellent investment for your home. It allows you to exercise according to your schedule and not worry about the weather or the commute to the gym.

A good quality treadmill is also a great method to track your fitness progress over time. A treadmill is essential for anyone training for a marathon or just wanting to maintain their fitness level.

1. Motor Vehicles

Look for a treadmill with an efficient motor when you shop. If you intend to run up to 20 miles per week, and performing high-intensity interval training, choose a machine that offers a continuous 3.0 horsepower motor and a deck that's 60 inches long. If you're a beginner, or simply want to walk or jog on occasion, consider smaller models that comes with a 1.75-2.5 horsepower motor.

Choose if you want an ultra-modern treadmill that comes with a touchscreen and virtual classes as well as a console or a basic model that doesn't have one. Certain models fold for easy storage.

For a sleek treadmill with a sleek design and a wide array of features, check out the Peloton Treadmill. It's more expensive than our top pick however it offers an enjoyable running experience with an intuitive touchscreen and a great range of workouts available on-demand from instructors both live and virtual. The incline controls, which are situated on the handrails allow you to easily adjust the speed and inclines while exercising. The only cup holders on this treadmill are plastic and are only used to hold water bottles.

Another treadmill worth considering is the NordicTrack Commercial 2450. It's a bit more affordable than the Peloton Treadmill, but it has a good set of features. Its iFit compatibility allows you to access a variety of workouts in virtual form from trainers across the globe. The app is only accessible with a subscription, which costs $39 per month. The treadmill has an interactive touchscreen of 22 inches as well as a cushioned deck. It has the maximum speed of 12 mph and offers an incline adjustability range of 33% to 15% for a more challenging workout.

2. Design

The design of a treadmill is important as is any other piece of fitness equipment. If you're training for an outdoor race that is a bit hilly you should choose a treadmill that has the highest incline setting. If you like to follow along with a workout class, look for models that feature a large screen and iFIT compatibility, which lets you access studio-style classes as well as virtual coach programs. Explore the World scenic runs and off-treadmill workouts.

We also look at the ease of use of the buttons as well as the user-friendly interface. We also look at whether the treadmill folds and, if yes how long it will take to fold it. We also examine whether the treadmill best needs to be put together and if it's an easy and quick process.

3. Technology

The technology utilized in treadmills can make a big difference in how simple they are to operate, and whether or not there are any issues. We consider touchscreens as well as user-friendly controls, intuitive interfaces, and other technological features when evaluating a treadmill in this category. We also consider whether a treadmill can be folded and moved easily. This is important for those who have to move their machines frequently or have to squeeze them into tight spaces.

We were impressed by the Nordictrack 1250 treadmill's responsive speed and incline adjustments based upon previous workouts, its lengthy belt and cushioning that is comfortable, as well as the iFIT integration that gives access to virtual coaches, studio-style classes, Explore the World scenic runs, and off-treadmill training options (though it sometimes had trouble with Bluetooth connectivity). Its 22" attractive, vibrant touchscreen in color and iFIT compatibility make this a top-rated treadmill.

Another treadmill that scores high is the ProForm Carbon T10. It features a 10" display and features live and on-demand content from iFIT for running, walking and jogging. We love that the speed and incline changes are easy to navigate through the touchscreen, as are the ergonomically placed buttons for the quick adjustments, and the iFIT integration that lets you stream workouts from Zwift and Hulu Max (subscriptions required). The one downside is that it doesn't offer headphones or USB ports.

4. Comfort

The most effective treadmills are those that feel comfortable for the person who uses them. Those with bigger bodies and taller strides will want to focus on the dimensions of the deck and how much space it provides for walking or running, while others might care more about ergonomic features such as well-placed speed and incline controls. We also looked for features that make the machine enjoyable to use, like front-facing speakers as well as a USB charger port as well as an insignificant cooling fan or plenty of storage space for water bottles and other accessories.

We also considered the storability of each treadmill, as not everyone has room in their home to accommodate a full-size treadmill. Fortunately, most of the models we tested fold up or have support arms that minimize their footprint when not in use. We evaluated how easily they folded up and put away, how quickly they set up, and whether or not they were easy to move on firm surfaces.

If you are planning to run many hills outdoors, you should also consider the maximum slope. This is crucial because it will help you prepare for more challenging outdoor climbs.

In terms of the technology used on every treadmill, we looked for touchscreens that respond and easy to use during an exercise as well as an user-friendly interface. We also sought out a non-slip appearance and whether the treadmill was compatible with third-party fitness apps. This helped us decide which treadmills had the right features to justify the cost. A quality treadmill for your home eliminates the obstacles of weather and expensive gym memberships and boosts your motivation to get in shape.

5. Safety

If not handled correctly the treadmill could be dangerous. It's a huge, heavy machine with a belt that can move at speeds of 10 or 12 miles per hour. Anyone who uses a treadmill for walking and running should not lean on the hand rails, because this could throw off balance and result in injury. A cluttered area around the treadmill can cause tripping hazards, so it's important to keep it clean and clutter-free throughout use and storage.

The most reliable treadmills come with security features such as a magnetic safety that can be removed and that is attached to the belt. The magnet will break off and stop the belt instantly when a runner falls off balance. This feature can prevent serious injuries to runners as well as other people. The treadmills in gyms are typically equipped with this technology, and home users might want to consider purchasing one in order to reduce the amount of accidents that occur when exercising at home equipment.

It's important that you be attentive to the "beep" when the treadmill belt begins to move. Don't leap off before the belt has stopped. Many people make the error of jumping off the treadmill before the belt has stopped. This could result in serious injuries. Also, be sure to be aware of the location of the emergency shut-off button is and how to use it.

When you're done using the treadmill It's a good idea to disconnect it and turn off the treadmill. This will decrease the risk of accidental use by visitors or children. It is also possible to keep it in a separate space with a clear space above and around it to stop other people from touching it accidentally.
