Treadmills are one of the most popular pieces of cardio equipment due to their versatility and calorie-incinerating workout they provide. A treadmill allows you work out at your own pace, wherever and whenever you want. The use of a treadmill several times a week offers a high calorie burning and cardiovascular workout. Studies have shown that people get more use out of a treadmill than any other fitness equipment.
A basic model treadmill consists of a cushioned rubber belt stretched over a level running deck, powered either by a motor or by the runner's stepping motion, depending on the model . Treadmills can be bought with an increasing array of extra features to best suite your needs. The most important features for a quality treadmill are easy-to-use, push-button controls, a safety key to stop the treadmill if you fall, a heart-rate monitor, front and side hand grips, and wide, flat foot rails on either side of the belt. The treadmill you choose depends on how you plan to use it, and how often.
