Treadmills With TVs

Treadmill with televisionIf there is a new hot trend in treadmills, it is models equipped with TVs.  This concept makes sense.  Walking or running in place can be very boring.  As hard as you try, you never get anywhere, and the scenery never changes.  That is why you find rows of televisions in front of the treadmills at health clubs.

NordicTrack Treadmill Reviews

I recently had the opportunity to go out to Logan, Utah and visit the Icon Fitness plant, where they build NordicTrack treadmills.  Prior to my trip I had a rather negative view of Icon because of their budget models built under the Weslo, Image and ProForm name.  I was surprised to find out that under the NordicTrack name they were building some impressive machines.

Treadmill Reviews and Ratings

Welcome to the Treadmill Ratings and Review blog.   If you are in the market for a treadmill, I want to assist you in getting the best value.  I also want to make sure you get a machine that helps you achieve your fitness goals. 

Some are cheaply built, while others are commercial grade.  Some are designed solely for walking, while other can handle marathon runners.

How do you determine the best treadmill for your needs?  You consider your fitness levels, and look at the models that best fit those levels.  For example, you want to factor whether you will use the machine for walking, jogging or running.  Then you need to consider the weight of the user, and the number of users.

From there you consider which options are most important  like heart rate control, sound system, installed programs, fans, etc.

In addition, you need to look at the extent of the warranty, the company reputation and their customer service. 

If you do your homework, you"ll end up with a machine that is built to withstand your desired usage.  

I worked in the fitness equipment industry for over 10 years.  In fact, I marketed treadmills.  Therefore, I know how to distinguish the hype from the facts. 

Stay tune as we cover all sorts of information designed to make you an educated treadmill consumer.
