Which treadmill deal is right for you?
When it comes to finding the right treadmill for you, it’s important to take the following factors into consideration:
- Space: How much room do you have? Can you use it correctly and safely in your home? Check the footprint of your chosen treadmill carefully and measure out the space in your home before committing to buy. A folding treadmill is ideal for storing away when not in use. A word of warning – don’t place your treadmill with the end of the running belt close to a wall – if you come off it you could be injured.
- Budget: If you’re just embarking on a brand new exercise routine, it may be tempting to buy a treadmill that’s packed with features. But they don’t come cheap. Try opting for a cheaper treadmill at first and see how you get on with it, before committing to a top-end model. You’ll still get a great workout.
- Features: Do you want to improve your stamina and endurance? A treadmill with a good incline is a must. Aiming to increase your speed? You’ll need a good range of levels and a challenging top speed. Get bored easily during a run? You may prefer an option with a range of workouts, personalized training, or Bluetooth connectivity so you can watch movies or listen to music while you train.
- Your height and weight: It’s always worth checking the small print before you buy. Many treadmills come with a maximum weight capacity, and others are designed for people under 6ft. If you’re over 6 feet tall then you’ll need a treadmill that’s at least 48” by 52” for walking and 54” for running.
- Noise: While most treadmills run fairly quietly, it’s a good idea to check the specification and reviews of your chosen model – just in case. This is especially important if you live in an apartment building, or you like to run late at night or early in the morning.
