Introduction
Investing in a professional treadmill is a strategic choice, whether for a gym, rehabilitation center, or a demanding home user. It is essential to understand the technical specifications, durability, and available features to select the model best suited to your needs.
1. Key Criteria for Choosing a Professional Treadmill
1.1 Motor Power
-
Professional motors generally range from 3 to 7 HP.
-
For intensive use, choose a continuous-duty motor of at least 4 HP, capable of handling several hours of daily operation.
1.2 Speed and Incline
-
Maximum speed: 20–23 km/h depending on the model for intensive use.
-
Automatic incline: 0–15 % depending on the treadmill.
1.3 Running Surface
-
For optimal comfort and reduced joint impact, choose a surface of at least 140 x 50 cm.
-
Woodway and Technogym treadmills feature high-quality shock-absorbing belts.
1.4 Consoles and User Experience
-
Touchscreen consoles provide an immersive experience, modern design, and advanced technologies (connected programs, apps, performance tracking).
-
They are more expensive and sometimes less reliable than classic LED systems, which remain robust and effective for intensive use.
