How to Find the Best Treadmills

The treadmill is a fantastic investment for your home. It allows you to work out at your own pace, without worrying about the weather or the journey to the gym.

A quality treadmill is also a great method to monitor your fitness progress over time. A treadmill is an essential item for anyone who is training for a marathon or simply wanting to maintain their fitness level.

1. Motor

Look for a treadmill with a powerful motor when shopping. If you plan to log up to 20 miles a week and performing high-intensity interval training, opt for an option that comes with an unstoppable 3.0 horsepower motor with 60 inches of deck long. If you're a beginner or simply want to walk and run occasionally, you should consider an option that is smaller and comes with a 1.75-2.5 horsepower motor.

You must also decide if you'd prefer to opt for a treadmill that features a touchscreen and virtual classes, or opt for a more basic model without the console. Some models fold up for easy storage.

The Peloton Treadmill is a well-designed treadmill with a sleek design with an impressive array of features. It's more expensive than our top choice but it provides a smooth running experience with an intuitive touchscreen and a great selection of on-demand workouts from instructors both live and virtual. The incline controls, which are located on the handrails, allow for easy adjustment of the speed and inclines while exercising. The only cup holders on this treadmill are plastic and are only used to hold water bottles.

The NordicTrack Commercial 2450 is another treadmill that is worth a look. It's a bit less expensive than the Peloton Treadmill, but it offers a number of features. With its iFit compatibility it allows you to access a range of workouts created by trainers around the world. You'll need a subscription in order to use the app, which is included for 30 days and is $39 per month after that. The treadmill also has a large 22-inch touchscreen and a cushioned deck. It can go up to 12 mph, and it has an incline range between -3 % and 15% for a more challenging exercise.

2. Design

The design of a treadmill is crucial, just like any other piece of fitness equipment. If you are training for an outdoor race that is a bit hilly it is best to choose a treadmill for home with the highest incline settings. If you like to follow the workout class, you should look for models with a large screen and iFIT compatibility, which lets you access classes in the studio as well as virtual coach programs. Explore the World scenic runs, and off-Treadmill best workouts.

Other design factors that we consider are adjustable speed and incline controls (on the handrails as well as the lower console) that adjust to your commands without you having to touch the touchscreen, user-friendly buttons, and a slick interface. We also take into consideration whether the treadmill for home can be folded and, if it is then how long it will take to fold it. We also look at whether the treadmill must be put together and if it's a quick and painless process.

3. Technology

The technology utilized in treadmills on sale makes a significant difference in how easy they are to use and whether they have any glitches. We look at touchscreens and intuitive controls, user-friendly interfaces and other tech features when evaluating a treadmill in this category. We also take into consideration whether a treadmill can be folded and transported easily. This is essential for those who have to often move their treadmills around or need to squeeze them into tight space.

We were awestruck by the Nordictrack 1250 treadmill's responsive speed and incline adjustments based upon past workouts, its long belt and cushioning that is comfortable, as well as the iFIT integration that gives access to studio-style classes, virtual coaches, Explore the World scenic runs, and off-treadmill training options (though it sometimes had problems with Bluetooth connectivity). Its 22" striking, sharp touchscreen with a color display and iFIT integration made this a top treadmill.

Another treadmill with high scores is the ProForm Carbon T10. With a 10" screen, it offers live streaming and on demand iFIT running, walking and jogging content. We like that the incline and speed changes are simple to navigate through the touchscreen, as are the ergonomically-placed buttons for quick adjustments and the iFIT integration which lets you stream workouts from Zwift and Hulu Max (subscriptions required). The only downside is that it does not have a headphone port or USB ports.

4. Comfort

The best treadmills should feel comfortable for the people using them. For those with larger bodies and longer strides should focus on the size of the deck and how much space it provides to walk or run, while others might care more about ergonomic features like well-placed speed and incline controls. We also scoured for features that make it enjoyable to use the machine, like front-facing speakers, the USB charging port and small cooling fan, as well as plenty of storage options for your water bottle or other accessories.

We also looked at the storage of each treadmill. Not everyone has enough space to fit a full-size treadmill. Fortunately, the majority of the models we tested fold up or have support arms that minimize their footprint when not in use. We examined how easily they folded and put away and set up, how quickly they could be set up and whether or not they were easy to move on firm surfaces.

If you plan to run many trails in the outdoors it is important to consider the maximum incline of the machine. This is crucial since it will allow you to prepare for more challenging outdoor climbs.

We looked for touchscreens that were responsive and a user-friendly interface on every treadmill. We also looked for a non-glitchy appearance and whether the machine was compatible with third-party fitness apps. This helped us decide if each treadmill had enough features to justify the cost. A quality treadmill at your home can help you get over the challenges of bad weather and costly gym memberships. It will also boost your motivation to stay in shape.

5. Safety

If not properly used, a treadmill could be dangerous. It's a large and heavy machine that has a belt that can move at speeds of up to 10 or 12 miles per hour. Be careful not to lean against the handrails when using treadmills to walk or run. This can cause an injury and throw your balance off. A cluttered area around the treadmill can also cause tripping hazards so it's essential to keep it tidy and clutter-free throughout use and storage.

The most reliable treadmills home gym will come with safety features, such as an adjustable safety magnet that is attached to the belt. If a runner loses balance, the magnet detaches and stops the moving belt immediately. This feature can prevent serious injuries to the runner and others. Gyms have treadmills that are equipped with this technology, and homeowners might want to consider purchasing one in order to reduce the amount of accidents involving exercise equipment.

When using a treadmill at home, it's important to listen for the safety "beep" that sounds when the belt begins to move. Don't leap off until the belt is stopped. Many people make the mistake of trying to save time by jumping off before the belt is completely stopped, which can cause injuries. Also, make sure to familiarize yourself with where the emergency shut-off switch is located and how to use it.

When you're done using the treadmill it's recommended to unplug it and turn it off. This reduces the chance of your children or visitors inadvertently turning on and using it. It is also possible to keep it in a separate space with an open space above and around it to prevent others from getting it in the wrong way.
