A treadmill is a great investment for your health and fitness and is a must-have addition to any home gym setup. Whether you’re looking to run, jog or walk, there is a treadmill to fit your needs.
The first thing you need to decide is the belt length. The average treadmill belt is 55-inches. If you’re average height, this size should work well for you. If you’re only going to be walking on your treadmill, a smaller model (with a 50-inch belt) will work as well. If you’re taller than average, and plan on doing lots of running, opt for a larger treadmill with at least a 60-inch belt.
Next, choose a treadmill with the right motor power, based on how often you’ll be using it and how fast you plan on running. Most standard treadmills have motors that run at around 2.5 CHP (continuous horsepower), which is a suitable speed for walking, jogging, or running. If you plan to run or jog on your treadmill every, you’ll appreciate a stronger motor that runs at 3.0 CHP or higher.
Another thing to look out for is adequate cushioning on the belt, which makes running and jogging easier on your joints and helps to prevent injury. And when it comes to the electronic console, look for a unit with a large, easy-to-read screen with the specific features you require. Common features include fitness tracking, interval programs, interactive web-based workout apps, mobile enhancements and more.
How much does a treadmill cost?
Treadmills vary widely in terms of quality and cost, with options ranging from low-end simple models to high-end premium units. Generally, more basic treadmills can start at around $600 (CAD) and rise to over $3,000 (CAD) for a more robust and feature-heavy model.
What routine maintenance does a treadmill require?
Most treadmills at some point will require certain maintenance, from lubrication and cleaning to adjustments and replacing parts.
How do I clean my treadmill?
Keep your treadmill clean by wiping away sweat after each session with a dry cloth or rag. Then, once per week, use a moistened cloth to wipe the treadmill belt before vacuuming underneath and around your unit.
How do I lubricate my treadmill?
Lubrication is essential to ensure your treadmill operates smoothly and has a long life. To lubricate your treadmill belt, start by unplugging your unit and/or switching it off. Next, loosen the belt, then partially lift it up and spray your silicone-based treadmill lubricant on both sides. Then, reattach the mat, and set your treadmill to a slow walking speed, which will ensure the lubricant evenly covers the whole inner belt surface. Unplug your treadmill once more and wipe off any excess lubricant with your cloth or rag. Finally, tighten the belt back up and plug in your unit.
· How do I replace my treadmill belt?
- Unplug the treadmill
- Remove the screws that secure the motor hood
- Locate the front and rear roller bolts and make note of their positions (for later steps)
- Use the rear roller bolt to loosen the walking belt
- Remove both roller bolts (if they are removable)
- Separate the deck bolts from the treadmill (to allow for removal of the rear roller screws, the roller itself, and the plastic end caps)
- If your model features handrails, remove them at the step
- Remove the walking belt by lifting the deck and holding the front roller in place near the pulley
- Slide the new belt onto the board and right-side sellers
- Raise the deck and ensure the belt is center aligned
- Replace the roller end caps
- Fasten and tighten the deck bolts at the front and rear (using your earlier positional markings)
- Further using your markings, refit the belt with a clockwise turn on the adjustment bolts
- Tighten the belt tension until you’re able to lift the center of the belt a couple inches from the deck
- Plug in the treadmill and set it to a slow walking speed to test for belt slippage
- If the belt is slipping, tighten the adjustment bolts on the left and right sides
- Once adjusted, reattach the motor hood
What assembly does a treadmill require?
Contrary to some common fears, modern treadmill assembly is usually quite fast and easy. Many treadmill units come almost entirely pre-assembled, with some models being fully assembled and ready to use straight out of the box. Other treadmills require the console and support system to be attached separately, but this can be done at home with basic everyday tools.
