How to Find the Best Treadmills

A treadmill is among the most beneficial fitness investment options you can make for your home. It lets you work out at your own pace without worrying about the weather or the long commute to the gym.

A treadmill of good quality is an excellent instrument to track your fitness improvement. A treadmill is a must-have for anyone training for a marathon, or simply looking to keep their fitness level.

1. Motor

Find a treadmill that has an efficient motor when you shop. If you plan on logging more than 20 miles per week, and doing intense interval training, choose a machine that offers a continuous 3.0 horsepower motor and a deck that's 60 inches long. If you're a beginner or simply want to walk or jog on occasion, consider smaller models that comes with a 1.75-2.5 horsepower motor.

Decide if you want an intelligent treadmill that has a touchscreen, virtual classes and an console or a basic model that doesn't have one. Some models fold up to make it easy to store.

The Peloton Treadmill is a well-designed treadmill that sports a sleek design with an impressive range features. It's a bit more expensive than our top pick, however, it provides a smooth running experience and a simple touchscreen. It also offers an extensive selection of exercises on demand with virtual and live instructors. The controls for incline, which are located on the handrails allow you to easily adjust the speed and inclines while exercising. The only cup holders are made of plastic and only hold water bottles; there's no fan on this treadmill.

The NordicTrack Commercial 2450 is another treadmill worth considering. It's less expensive than the Peloton treadmill Best but has a many good features. Its iFit compatibility lets users to access a range of workouts online from trainers around the world. The app is available with a subscription, which costs $39 per month. The treadmill features a 22-inch touchscreen as well as a cushioned deck. It can go up to 12 mph and has an incline range between -3 % and 15 percent for a more challenging exercise.

2. Design

As with any piece of fitness equipment, the way a treadmill is constructed is crucial. If you're preparing for an outdoor race that has a hill, you will want to choose a treadmill that has the highest incline setting. If you're interested in following classes, choose 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 factors that we consider include responsive speed and incline controls (on the handrails and the lower console) that adjust to your commands without you needing to touch the touchscreen, user-friendly buttons, and a user-friendly interface. We also consider whether the treadmill can be folded and, if it is, how long does it take to fold it. We also look at whether the treadmill has to be put together and if it's simple and easy to do so.

3. Technology

The technology used in treadmills can make a huge difference in how simple they are to operate, and whether or not there are any issues. When evaluating a treadmill within this category, we take into consideration touchscreens and user-friendly controls. We also look at user-friendly interfaces, easy-to-use controls and other technological features. We also consider the possibility of a treadmill for home being folded and transported easily. This is essential for those who have to often move their treadmills around or have to fit them into tight space.

The Nordictrack 1250 Treadmill impressed us with its responsive speed and incline adjustment in accordance with 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 problematic). Its 22" attractive, vibrant touchscreen in color and iFIT integration made this a top treadmill.

Another high-scoring treadmill is the ProForm Carbon T10. With 10" screen, it has live streaming and on-demand iFIT walking, running, and jogging videos. We love that the speed and incline adjustments are easy to navigate on the touchscreen, as are the ergonomically placed buttons for the quick adjustments and the iFIT integration that allows you to stream workouts from Zwift and Hulu Max (subscriptions required). The only issue is that there's no USB or headphone ports.

4. Comfort

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

We also considered the storage of each treadmill. Not everyone has enough space in their homes to fit a full-size treadmill. Fortunately, most of the models we tested fold up or have support arms to reduce their footprint when not in use. We examined how easily the machines folded and could be stowed away and how long it took to set up, and if they were easy to move on firm surfaces.

If you are planning to run many hills outdoors, you must take into consideration the maximum slope. This is essential since it will allow you to prepare for more challenging outdoor climbs.

In terms of the technology on each treadmill, we looked for touchscreens that were responsive and easy to use during an exercise as well as an user-friendly interface. We also looked at the design of the treadmill and whether it was compatible with fitness apps from third-party companies. This helped us decide if each treadmill had enough features to justify the price. A quality treadmill for your home can eliminate the hurdles of weather or costly gym memberships, and can increase your motivation to get into shape.

5. Safety

If not used correctly the treadmill could be risky. It's a massive and heavy machine that has a belt that moves at speeds of up to 10 or 12 miles per hour. Avoid leaning against the handrails when using the treadmill to walk or run. This could cause injury and throw your balance off. Tripping hazards can also be caused by a clutter-filled area surrounding the treadmill. Keep it clean and clutter free during the use of it and when storing it.

The most reliable treadmills will come with security features like an ejectable safety magnet that is that is attached to the belt. The magnet will detach and stop the belt instantly in the event that a runner is unable to maintain balance. This feature can prevent serious injuries to the runner and others. Gyms have treadmills that are equipped with this technology, and home users should consider purchasing one to help decrease the number of accidents involving exercise equipment.

When you are using a treadmill at home, it is important to pay attention to the safety "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 trying to save time by jumping off before the belt is completely stopped, which can result in injuries. Be sure to familiarize yourself with where the emergency shut-off switch is located and how to use it.

It's important to ensure that the treadmill is shut off and unplugged once you're finished with it. This will minimize the chance of unintentional use by visitors or children. It is best to keep it in a separate area and a clear area above and around it can help keep other people from accidental contact with it as well.
