… deck cushioning

This model is fitted with “DuraStride” cushioning. This is an adjustable cushioning system that has been designed to reduce the impact on your ankles, knees and spine. The “DuraStride” cushioning employs a moveable isolator, which allows you to change your support from a firmer, street-like workout, to a softer, joint-friendly workout, or anywhere in between.
… cardiogrip monitor

A CardioGrip heart rate monitor is employed on this model. This helps you to make the most out of every workout by monitoring your heart rate via sensors that are built into the handlebars. Monitoring your heart rate ensures that you’re always in the right training zone for your goals. You can get a more effective workout, burn more fat, and improve your cardiovascular health.
… speed control

The treadmill comes equipped with 1-Touch control. Instead of tediously scrolling through options, the 1-Touch system allows you to instantly change the speed of the treadmill between 0 – 12 MPH with the single touch of a button. You can decrease your speed immediately when you need a rest, or increase it instantly for a challenging workout.
… incline control

The 1-Touch control technology is also used in order to change the incline with the single touch of a button instead of tediously scrolling through options as you would with traditional incline controls. The incline can be adjusted between 0 deg. up to 15 deg. of grade.

… iPOD connection

A universal iPOD dock is mounted on the console. You can now enjoy your workout while you play your favorite music through the built-in “Intermix Acoustic 3.0” Sound System. The music port is also equipped with a convenient shelf to rest your iPOD upon leaving the controls within easy reach.
… user weight

In order not to overload the treadmill it is important to take note of the manufacturer’s maximum weight loading. This model is rated at 350 lbs so should be suitable for users up to this maximum loading.
... foldaway design

Finding the room in your home to store a treadmill can be a problem, but this model has a solution to this problem. The “space saver” feature on this treadmill allows you to fold the treadmill into a near upright position after your workout where it will then occupy a lot smaller floor area.
