Having a treadmill at home is a great way to exercise easily without travelling around. But how do you choose your home fitness equipment and what are the advantages of a treadmill compared to indoor or outdoor running? With NordicTrack’s premium-quality equipment, you can start exercising without any restrictions and travel around the world from the comfort of your own home!

Why train on a treadmill at home?

Are you planning to start home training? Here are 5 good reasons to use a treadmill at home:

• Compared to running outdoors, running on a treadmill belt causes less impact on the joints, thanks to the fine adjustment of the cushioning and an even surface.
• Exercising at home is a flexible solution: Run when you want, without weather restrictions or losing valuable time travelling to the gym.
• The treadmill’s tracking tools monitor various data. For example, you can find out how many calories you’ve burned or how far you’ve run and keep an eye on your progress.
• Your workouts are more effective: You can set the speed or incline as you wish and enjoy targeted exercises with running programmes that continuously adjust the belt settings.
• The treadmill’s features are ideal when preparing for a race: MHR (maximum heart rate), aerobic or anaerobic threshold, step amplitude, progression rate; everything is under your control!

Choosing the right treadmill

When choosing your treadmill, there are a number of factors to take into account:

• What will you use it for?
• For occasional use, the NordicTrack S-Series treadmills offer excellent value for money.
