For those of us who just don't feel comfortable going to a gym where everyone is already too skinny and too good looking, we don't have to worry any longer about getting in shape. The home workout industry has created several different versions of an old favorite – the exercise treadmill – so you can get the same great gym quality work out at home without worrying about all those people watching. The exercise treadmill has been around for a long time, and normally consists of a treadmill and stand, with controls for you to adjust where you would like your workout to be. But, those old boring machines are a thing of the past! Today's exercise treadmills have so many features that you might not know which one's you should get. So, here is a small list of some of the newest features to help you decide which ones you need, and which ones you don't:
Inclined treadmill – Most exercise treadmills today have the option of an incline on the treadmill itself. You can adjust the height so that you can walk flat or at a steep incline to help burn more calories and fat. These inclines are great if you are just wanting to lose weight or if you are training for a marathon.
Dual treadmills – Some of the newer exercise treadmills offer a dual treadmill so you can use them as a stair-stepper to help you burn fat and increase muscle as you go. This is a great way to combine two machines into one, since you have a treadmill that you can walk and run on, as well as a stair machine to help with your thighs, buttocks, and hips.
Timers – Almost all of the newer exercise treadmills come with a timer now, so you can set your work out as long as you would like and don't have to watch the clock or your watch to make sure that you have gone the right amount of time.
Custom workouts – Some of the newer exercise treadmills offer you a custom workout, where you can either choose one they have programmed in or create your own to offer you different resistances, inclines, or speeds to help you vary your workout.
Heart monitors – If you have a heart condition or simply like to monitor your heart rate while you are working out, you can opt for the heart monitor that comes on some of the newer exercise treadmills. These simple devices usually fit over your finger tip and will monitor your heart rate the whole time that you have it on or while you are working out.
These are just a few of the great new options that you can find on exercise treadmills today, so when you are looking for a new treadmill, you can check out all the options that are available on the model you like. From cup holders to automatic shut offs, you can find everything that you need and want on your new exercise treadmill.
