How to Find the Best Treadmills

The treadmill is a great investment for your home. It allows you to exercise at your own pace and not worry about the weather or the commute to the gym.

A quality treadmill is also a great method to monitor your fitness progress over time. A treadmill is a must-have for anyone who is training for a marathon, or simply seeking to keep their fitness level.

1. Motor

Find a treadmill that has a powerful motor when shopping. If you plan on logging upwards of 20 miles per week and performing high-intensity interval training, you should choose one that has a continuous 3.0 horsepower motor and 60 inches of deck long. If you are a beginner or simply would like to jog or walk often, you should consider an option with a motor that is between 1.75 and 2.5 horsepower.

Choose if you want a smart treadmill with a touchscreen, virtual classes and an console or a basic model that doesn't have one. Some models fold for easy storage.

The Peloton Treadmill is a smart treadmill that sports sleek design and impressive array of features. It's a bit more expensive than our top choice, but it offers a smooth running experience and a simple touchscreen. It also has an extensive selection of workouts that are available on demand from instructors who are live and virtual. The incline controls are placed on the handrails, and the quick dials allow you to adjust speeds and inclines while exercising. The only cup holders are made of plastic and can only hold water bottles; there's no fan on this treadmill.

Another treadmill worth considering is the NordicTrack Commercial 2450. It's a bit more affordable than the Peloton Treadmill, but it comes with a great set of features. With its iFit compatibility, you can access a variety of virtual workouts designed by trainers from all over the world. The app is available with a subscription, which costs $39 per month. The treadmill also comes with a huge 22-inch touchscreen and a cushioned deck. It can run at speeds of up to 12 mph and it has an incline range between -3 % and 15 percent for a more challenging exercise.

2. Design

The design of a treadmill is important, just like any other piece of fitness equipment. If you're training for a challenging outdoor race it is recommended to choose an exercise machine with the highest incline settings that mimic the terrain outdoors. If you love to follow an exercise class, choose models with a large screen and iFIT compatibility, which allows you to access classes in the studio virtual coach programs, Explore the World scenic runs and off-treadmill workouts.

Other design factors that we consider include the incline and speed controls that are responsive (on the handrails as well as the lower console) which adjust to your needs without needing to use the touchscreen, simple buttons, and a user-friendly interface. We also take into consideration whether the treadmill is foldable and, if it can how long it will take to do so. We also consider if the treadmill requires assembly and whether the procedure is quick and easy.

3. Technology

The technology used in treadmills makes a big difference in how easy they are to operate and whether they have any issues. When evaluating a treadmill within this category, we take into consideration touchscreens and intuitive controls. We also consider user-friendly interfaces, intuitive controls, and other technological features. We also take into consideration the possibility of a treadmill being folded and easily transported. This is crucial for those who have to often move their treadmills around or have to squeeze them into tight spaces.

The Nordictrack 1250 Treadmill impressed us with its rapid speed and incline adjustments according to previous workouts, long belt, comfortable cushioning and iFIT integration, which gives access to studio style classes, virtual coaches and Explore the World scenic run options, in addition to exercises that are not on the treadmill (though Bluetooth connectivity was sometimes difficult). This treadmill was rated highly because of its 22" color touchscreen, which has attractive, sharp images and iFIT compatibility.

The ProForm Carbon T10 is another high-scoring treadmill. With 10" screen, it has on-demand live and on-demand iFIT walking, running, and jogging videos. We like that the speed and incline adjustments are easy to navigate on the touchscreen, the ergonomically-placed buttons that allow for 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 have headphones or USB ports.

4. Comfort

The best treadmills are those that feel at ease for the person who is who uses them. For those with larger bodies and longer strides might be more concerned about the dimensions of the deck and the amount of space it offers to walk or run. Others might be more interested in ergonomic features such as well-placed speed controls and incline controls. We also searched for additional features that make it more enjoyable to use the machine, such as front-facing speakers as well as a USB charging port, a tiny cooling fan, as well as plenty of storage options for your water bottle or other accessories.

Then, we looked at the ability to store each treadmill, because there isn't always room in their home to accommodate a full-size treadmill. Fortunately, the majority of treadmills we tested fold down or come with support arms to minimize their footprint when not in use. We examined how easily they folded up and put away, how quickly they set up and whether or not they were easily moved on solid surfaces.

If you plan to run a lot of trails in the outdoors, you'll also want to think about the maximum incline on the machine. This is essential 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 treadmill was compatible with third-party fitness apps. This helped us determine whether each treadmill had enough features to justify the price. A quality treadmill at your home can help you get over the obstacles of bad weather and costly gym memberships. It can also boost your motivation to stay in shape.

5. Safety

If not properly used, a treadmill can be dangerous. It's a huge heavy machine with a belt that moves at speeds of 10 or 12 miles per hour. Anyone who uses treadmills for home for walking and running should not lean on the hand rails because this could throw off balance and lead to injuries. A messy area around the treadmill could also cause tripping hazards therefore it is important to keep it clean and clutter-free during use and storage.

The best treadmills come with security features such as a magnetic safety that can be removed and attached to the belt. If a runner loses balance, the magnet disengages and stops the belt instantly. This feature is able to protect the runner and other people from serious injuries. This technology is usually used on treadmills in gyms. Home users should invest in one to reduce the number of accidents that happen with home exercise equipment.

When using a treadmill at home, it's crucial to listen for the "beep" that sounds when the belt begins to move, and don't jump off until the belt is stopped. Many people make the mistake of stepping off the treadmill before the belt has completely stopped. This can result in serious injuries. Also, you should be familiar with the location and use of the emergency shut-off switch.

It's important to ensure that the treadmill best is turned off and unplugged once you're finished with it. This can reduce the risk of kids or unintentionally visiting visitors accidentally turning on and using the treadmill. Keeping it in a different room and a clear area above and around it can protect other people from coming into contact with it as well.
