Treadmills
For walkers and runners a
treadmill is a logical choice. And the good news is the recent models are built
for endurance and a pleasurable cardio experience. A Treadmill is the most
efficient equipment to burn calories and lose weight, that is why they are the
most popular.
You'll want a treadmill
with a motor that is continuous duty with a rating of at least 2.0 HP.
Continuous duty motors give you constant maximum power. Non continuous motors
are unable to run smoothly for an extended period of time.
Select a treadmill that
accommodates your stride with an adequate length and width. The deck should be
at least 18" x 53". If you are a runner and tall, you may want to consider a
"stretch" model. The deck should have a reasonable amount of cushion for minimal
impact on your feet, ankles and knees. Several manufacturers offer extra thick
cushioned treadmills as an option.
For variety you'll want a
treadmill with incline control and computerized programming. Incline control
simulates an uphill climb, while the electronics can be programmed to create a
diversity of running or walking experiences.
