Treadmill ratings you can count on...

Useful, unbiased treadmill info. along with a respected treadmill ratings system, can be tough to find on the net, but not anymore! We have researched some of the most popular treadmill brands on the market, and now we bring that research to you.

 

A treadmill is the hottest piece of fitness equipment being used. They outsell every other form of exercise equipment being sold. To put it simply, the reason why treadmills are so popular is because using a treadmill regularly is one of the best ways to burn calories, lose weight, and get in shape!

But there are a lot of treadmill brands, manufacturers, and models out there, so which one do you buy? It can be a tough decision, so let us make your decision a bit easier by providing you with some neatly packaged treadmill research we've recently completed. After all, you have better things to do.

Here are a few things to look for when purchasing a treadmill:

  • Treadmill motor - This is the heart of your treadmill. We recommend getting a treadmill that has at least a 2.5 horsepower. Anything less and you're asking for trouble if you use the treadmill regularly.

  • Treadmill deck - the deck (your running surface) needs to have plenty of shock absorption otherwise your knees and ankles are in for a rough time. Look for rubber or polymer cushions placed under the deck.

  • Incline - The good news is that most all treadmills have an incline feature allowing you to run uphill for a more strenuous and better workout. The incline ranges will vary from treadmill to treadmill, but make sure you do get one that inclines.

  • Heart Rate Monitors - Most treadmills these days come equipped with heart rate monitors in different shapes and sizes. This allows you to maintain your optimum heart rate.

  • Warranty - All treadmill manufacturers will back up their treadmills with a warranty, but look for ones that'll have a lengthy warranty. The better treadmills will have warranties covering you for at least 10 years on the motor, 3 years on parts, and 1 year on service.

Okay...so without any further delay, pull up a chair, bookmark this site, and visit the various pages on our website to find out which treadmills have high treadmill ratings, and which do not. And don't forget to check out the latest fitness news below.
