Tread Mills

A tread mill is an exercise machine for running or walking while staying in one place. It enables you to walk or run indoors. The machine has a moving platform with a wide conveyor belt and an electric motor or a flywheel. The belt moves to the rear allowing a person to walk or run at an equal speed but towards the opposite direction. The rate at which the belt moves is the rate of walking or running and allows for measuring and controlling the speed of running or walking.

Motor-driven tread mills are usually more expensive and heavy-duty. The less expensive are simpler and lighter moving only when the walker pushes the belt with their feet. Modern models have flexible surface with cushions for the joints. Choose a tread mill model that has a strong motor, wider and longer belt, sturdy frame, front and side rails, emergency stop device and adjustable speed.
