Treadmill Buying Guide For Beginners
By Dean Iggo
Treadmills are one of the most popular pieces of exercise equipment available for the home market. Sometimes, though, a treadmill buying guide is necessary when you begin to weave your way through the options, features, and other difficulties involved in choosing a treadmill.
Things for Buyers To Consider
There are a number of different things to consider before you make your treadmill purchase. The first treadmill buying guide component is the type of motor on the model you are looking at. Treadmills come with either an AC or DC motor. Most consumer home units run on DC current. Most commercial models come with the option of either. AC motors are usually much louder, and they will require a dedicated power line. As a result, if you decide to buy a commercial model to use in your home, be sure you can run it with DC power.
The next treadmill buying guide component is the running belt. You want to consider the level of thickness in the belt with any model you buy. Models with one-ply belts tend to be cheaper, but models with two-ply belts are much stronger. The belts are a bit tougher, and they are far less likely to experience curling at the sides over the course of time.
An additional treadmill buying guide component is the type of incline adjustment. Adjusting the incline of your treadmill can change the intensity level of your workout. Some are electronic, and some are manual. The more expensive the model, the more electronic incline adjustment features you get. For example, on the most expensive models, the incline adjusts according to your target heart rate. On the least expensive models, you don't have electronic adjustment. You have to manually adjust the incline with a knob before you begin your workout.
The final treadmill buying guide component is the minimum and maximum speed of the machine. Most low end models go to around five miles per hour. Higher end models can go up to twelve miles per hour. You need to choose a model that fits your treadmill needs. For example, if you intend to use your treadmill for running, you want something that has faster speeds.
Considering all of these components is essential before you make your treadmill purchase.
