10 Quick Tips for Buying Treadmills by Jennifer Dennis

has to take the next step... and next step... and next step.

5. Maximum Developed Horsepower is another influential factor in a treadmill.

MDH is when the motor is required to work harder than the idle speed, causing

the motor to need extra horsepower. This extra horsepower’s top amount is called

the MDH. The better the machine, the stronger the MDH, ensuring your machine

will last longer and work more effectively.

6. Monitors are essential to a great workout. Heart rate monitors are an easy

and efficient way to obtain optimal fitness levels in an easy-to-read format.

Set your designated heart rate and let these accurate monitors tell you where

you stand as you run, walk or jog. Moderate Rate heart rates at approximately

50% of the maximum heart rate, or an RPE of 5-6; Weight Management heart rates

are 60-70% , or RPE 6-7; Aerobic is 70-80% or RPE 7-8; the Peak Performance

should only be used by top athletes and is 80-90% with an RPE 8-9. Controlling

speed, distance and incline through your monitors will also help to obtain

desired heart rates.

7. The SpaceSaver option is ideal for individuals living in an apartment or

home with limited space. If you don’t want to see your treadmill machine every

day—or simply don’t have room for it—a SpaceSaver model will fold up easily and

efficiently for storage. Purchase attractive treadmill furniture to store your

SpaceSaver in an accessible and convenient location.

8. Making your machine iFit compatible directly confronts the biggest problem

you will face with any machine you buy—boredom with your fitness routine. iFit

gives you the chance to have a personalized, rewarding workout time after time.

Through your machine, you will set and obtain your personal goals for a

rewarding experience.

9. Speed range and incline range should be easily changed throughout your

workout. If you want to change inclines throughout the exercise, the machine

should give you a smooth, flowing adjustment. In addition, your machine should

remain relatively quiet.

10. Warranties are essential to buying your next treadmill. Especially if you

are considering a used or refurbished model, see what the distributor or

manufacturer offers you for replacement parts or service. Warranties confirm the

quality of the product and you should make sure it covers the weight of the

heaviest person who might use the machine and works against defects for one to

three years.
