Treadmill is a routine equipment in family and gym, and it is also the simplest one in family fitness equipment. So how should we choose a treadmill? Here are some tips for choosing a treadmill, which I hope will help you.

First of all, the horsepower value of the treadmill motor

The function of each treadmill is different, so we need to know the horsepower value of the treadmill motor and choose the treadmill that suits us best. Usually, one horsepower of a treadmill can provide about 50-60 kilograms of load, but the running belt area is also directly related to the treadmill motor. The greater the horsepower of the treadmill, the greater the running belt area that can be driven. Therefore, after weighing the efficiency and safety, it is generally recommended that the continuous horsepower of household treadmills should be above 1.25~ 1.5 horsepower.

Second, the choice of running belt area

In fact, it is not difficult to buy a treadmill. We need to pay attention to the running area provided by the treadmill, which is more important. So you must be very concerned about the size of the running belt, the width from left to right and the length from front to back. Otherwise, you will not be able to take a natural step, run clumsily and unsteadily, fall down more easily, and increase the possibility of your injury.

According to ergonomics, 40cm( 173/4 inches) width X 130cm(50 inches) length should be a suitable reference area, and then it should be increased or decreased according to the actual situation of individuals. Theoretically, under the condition of the same horsepower, it should be a better choice if the treadmill can provide a larger running area and the actual floor space of the whole treadmill is smaller.

Third, the shock absorption effect of the treadmill

Compared with running on outdoor roads, the biggest advantage of using a treadmill is to provide shock absorption effect, eliminate the reaction impact of each step in a large number, and protect your knees, ankles and other joints.

At first, the treadmill is usually separated from the underframe pad by elastic rubber pads, so that the treadmill hangs in the air, and then it has a damping effect to achieve the damping effect, but this method can not fully achieve the ideal effect.

Fourth, the treadmill slope adjustment function

A treadmill with slope adjustment can greatly improve the effect of aerobic training, so that you can consume more calories in the same time and get better cardiopulmonary exercise effect. In general, the inclination of the treadmill can be adjusted within the range of 0- 12%, and some imported brands can even reach 25%. In fact, for treadmills used at home, 0- 12% can meet the requirements, and under normal circumstances, the slope is rarely excessively adjusted.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) Auxiliary moving function of folding box

Treadmills generally occupy a large area. Due to the limitations of the home environment, many people will have concerns when buying. It doesn't matter at all. At present, many running feet have four honeycomb flexible wheels made of silicone, which not only have the rolling effect of the wheels, but also have a clever design that does not transmit sound to the downstairs. The wings are folded for easy movement. Fold the treadmill 45? Angle, you can move the treadmill to any position, even women can easily operate it!

Six, treadmill mute requirements

The treadmill drives the belt with a motor, and then drives the running belt with rollers; This series of electromechanical and mechanical operation processes will inevitably produce certain sounds. The standard requirement of a brand-new treadmill that has just left the factory is that it runs on an empty platform (5 km/h) and the sound measured within the range of treadmill 1 m is not higher than 70 dB, which is also the protection standard for noise in the living environment, but it accelerates with the actual operation.

Seven. Basic functions of treadmill

1.LED display window provides and helps users to master various sports information, including speed display, time timing, running distance, slope display and heat consumption. In addition, a better treadmill also provides a demonstration of sports events, so that you can know more about the situation during the exercise.

2. Convenient and simple operation keys, including: start, stop, speed adjustment, slope adjustment, program-controlled selection, etc. A better treadmill can provide a direct choice of exercise plan.

3. Preset computer program-controlled operation (3 or more groups) and computer program-controlled operation (2 or 3 groups) for individuals to set freely.

4. Safety magnetic lock function in case of emergency power failure.
