Which parameters have to be considered when choosing treadmills?

·         Treadmill frame - recommended resilience (weight and body height), design and ergonomics. The maximum load capacity of the treadmill should always be higher than the weight of the heaviest user (e.g. if you weigh 80 kg, then choose a treadmill with a load capacity of 110 kg - never vice versa).
·         Tread - dimensions (width and length), incline (to simulate running on levels or uphill), and suspension (the better, the less stress on the joints). Bands with a narrow and short tread are more used for walking or slow running. Treads with a width of more than 46 cm are best suited for fast and comfortable running.
·         Treadmill motor  - continuous power (horsepower from 1.5 to 5), peak power (maximum short-term load), minimum and maximum speed (from 0.8 to 25 km / h.), Smooth power regulation. For heavy people and higher speeds, choose powerful motors. You will also be delighted that the operation of more powerful engines is actually quieter.
·         Computers and pulse rate sensors - all treadmills track speed, distance, exercise time, pulse rate, calories burned and body fat. Pre-set programs are common and today also the connection with trays.

What else is important when choosing treadmills?
