Getting fit, staying in shape, or just getting in your steps are excellent goals. Regular exercise doesn’t have to be intimidating if you have a treadmill at home. Whether you are a newbie or a seasoned pro, treadmills have settings for everybody to help on your fitness journey, all from the privacy of your home.
Since 2019, I’ve led a team of regular Joes and fitness experts, and collectively we’ve walked, jogged, and run thousands of miles on more than 20 treadmills. Our team utilizes every incline and speed; we measure surface length and flex and consider noise levels, storability, and bonus features that make them easier or more enjoyable to use (virtual hiking, anyone?).
The best treadmill for most people is the Echelon Stride 6. Whether you’re just starting out or running marathons, the Stride 6 offers the perfect setup. With unassuming controls perfect for first-timers and a running surface built for logging miles, this machine can help you reach any long or short-term goals.
If you have the space and money, the NordicTrack X16 is our premium choice. We love that it can create a steep uphill climb for hardcore hikers and offers interactive programs on the big screen. Want to hike through the Alps without leaving home? You can, virtually.
If your budget is smaller, the Sunny Health and Fitness SF-T4400 Folding Treadmill offers a solid workout that exceeds expectations for its humble price. Although it may not feel cutting-edge, it costs significantly less than many competitors, and you’ll save even more with no additional app subscription.
