The Best Treadmill


Few things are as synonymous with indoor exercise as a treadmill. Loved (or loathed) by runners of varying skill levels, training on a treadmill is the best fill-in for going on a walk or a run when you’re faced with unfavorable outdoor conditions or commitments that keep you at home. And some people prefer using a treadmill to training outdoors. After walking and running on 29 treadmills over the past six years, we’ve concluded that the NordicTrack Commercial 1750 is a dependable, versatile machine with a smooth ride and a sturdy build. It has a straightforward design that is easy to navigate, plus a large color touchscreen. An optional subscription for on-board workout content is available, too, if you want an extra dose of motivation.
