How to Find the Best Treadmills

A treadmill is among the best fitness investments you can make for your home. It allows you to exercise on your schedule without worrying about the weather or your commute to the gym.

A good quality treadmill is also a great method to track your fitness progress over time. If you're preparing for an upcoming marathon or simply want to maintain your fitness level having a treadmill in your home is a must.

1. Motor

Look for a treadmill with an efficient motor when you shop. If you plan on logging upwards of 20 miles a week and performing high-intensity interval training, you should choose a machine that offers an unstoppable 3.0 horsepower motor that has a deck that's 60 inches long. If you're a beginner or simply want to walk and run occasionally, you should consider a more compact model that has a 1.75-2.5 horsepower motor.

You must also decide if you'd like to go for a smart treadmill that features a touchscreen and virtual classes or prefer an easier model that doesn't have an console. Some models can fold down to make it easy to store.

The Peloton Treadmill is a well-designed treadmill that sports a sleek design with an impressive array of features. It's more expensive than our top choice, but it combines a smooth running experience with an intuitive touchscreen and an impressive selection of on-demand workouts from instructors both live and virtual. The incline controls, which are located on the handrails allow you to easily adjust speed and inclines during exercise. The only cup holders are plastic and are only able to hold water bottles; there's no fan on this treadmill.

Another treadmill worth considering is the NordicTrack Commercial 2450. It's more affordable than the Peloton Treadmill but has a lot of good features. Its iFit integration allows you to access a wide range of workouts in virtual form from trainers across the globe. You'll need a subscription to use the app, which is included for 30 days and costs $39 per month after that. The treadmill also features a huge 22-inch touchscreen and a cushioned deck. It can go up to 12 mph, and also has an incline that ranges from -3 % to 15 percent for a more difficult exercise.

2. Design

As with all fitness equipment, the way a treadmill is constructed is crucial. If you're training for a hilly outdoor race it is recommended to choose an exercise machine with the highest incline settings that simulate the terrain outdoors. If you enjoy following classes select models with a large display and iFIT compatibility. This allows you to access studio style classes, virtual coach programmes, Explore the World scenic run, and other off-treadmill exercises.

Other design aspects we consider include the incline and speed controls that are responsive (on the handrails as well as the lower console) which adjust to your preferences without needing to use the touchscreen, simple buttons, and a slick interface. We also consider whether the treadmill can be folded and if it is then how long it will take to do so. We also take into consideration if the treadmill requires assembly and whether that process is quick and painless.

3. Technology

The technology utilized in treadmills can make a massive difference in how simple they are to use and whether or not there are any issues. When evaluating a treadmill in this category, we look at touchscreens and easy-to-use controls. We also look at user-friendly interfaces, intuitive controls, and other features that are technologically advanced. We also consider if the treadmill is portable and folds with the press of a button. This might be important for those who often move their treadmills around their home or have to squeeze them into tight space.

The Nordictrack 1250 Treadmill impressed us with its rapid speed and incline adjustments according to previous workouts, a long belt, comfortable cushioning, and iFIT integration, which provides access to studio-style classes, virtual coaches, and Explore the World scenic run options, as well as exercises that are not on the treadmill (though Bluetooth connectivity was sometimes difficult). Its 22" eye-catching, crisp touchscreen with a color display and iFIT compatibility made this treadmill a top choice.

The ProForm Carbon T10 is another treadmill with a high score. With a 10" screen, it offers on-demand live and on-demand iFIT running, walking, and jogging videos. We love that the speed and incline adjustments are easy to navigate through the touchscreen, as are the ergonomically-placed buttons for quick adjustments and the iFIT integration that lets you stream workouts from Zwift and Hulu Max (subscriptions required). The only downside is that it doesn't offer an audio port or USB ports.

4. Comfort

The most efficient treadmills are those that are comfortable for the person who is using them. People with larger bodies and taller strides will want to focus on the dimensions of the deck and the amount of space it offers for running or walking and others may be concerned more about ergonomic features, such as well-placed speed and incline controls. We also looked for extras that make it enjoyable to use the machine, including front-facing speakers, a USB charging port, a tiny cooling fan, as well as plenty of places to store your water bottle or other accessories.

We also considered the storage capacity of each treadmill. Not everyone has enough space in their homes to fit a full-size treadmill. Fortunately, most of the treadmills we tested fold or have support arms that reduce their footprint when not in use. We evaluated the ease with which the machines folded and could be stowed away, how long it took to put them up, and whether they were easy to move around on firm surfaces.

If you plan on running a lot of hilly routes outdoors, it is important to consider the maximum gradient. This is a crucial feature that can help you train for more difficult outdoor climbs by simulating the ascent with the treadmill.

In terms of the technology that is on each treadmill near me, we looked for touchscreens that are responsive and easy to use during a workout and have an user-friendly interface. We also looked for a non-slip appearance and whether the treadmill was compatible with third-party fitness apps. This helped us determine whether each treadmill offered enough features to justify the price. A high-quality treadmill at home removes the barriers of weather and expensive gym memberships and can boost your motivation to get in shape.

5. Safety

If not properly used, a treadmill could be risky. It's a large, heavy machine with a belt that is moving at speeds up to 12 miles per hour. Those who use treadmills for home for walking and running should avoid leaning on the hand rails, since this could cause a loss of balance and cause injury. A messy space around the treadmill could cause tripping hazards, so it's important to keep it tidy and clutter-free throughout use and storage.

The best treadmills will have security features like a removable safety magnet that is attached to the belt. The magnet will break off and stop the belt immediately when a runner falls off balance. This feature could prevent serious injuries to runners as well as other people. This feature is typically used on treadmills in gyms. Home users should invest in one to decrease the amount of accidents that can occur on home exercise equipment.

It is crucial to listen for the "beep" when the treadmill belt begins moving. Do not jump off before the belt has stopped. Many people make the mistake of jumping off the treadmill before the belt has stopped. This can result in serious injuries. Also, you should be familiar with the location and usage of the emergency shut-off switch.

When you're done using the treadmill it's recommended to disconnect it and turn off the treadmill. This will reduce the chance of your children or visitors accidentally turning it on and running. The fact that it is kept in a different room and a clear area above and around it can also prevent other people from coming into contact with it, as well.
