The rating of treadmills is largely determined not only by the manufacturer, but also by the purpose of the simulator. These manipulators for the home are divided into mechanical and electrical variations.
Principle of operation

Quick reference:
- people weighing up to 80 kg can be productively engaged on a treadmill (rating is not very important) with a power of up to one and a half horsepower;
- if the athlete prefers running rather than walking, you should pay attention to models with an acceptable speed parameter of up to 20 km / h;
- the size of the running cloth depends on the comfort of its operation;
- the larger the athlete in complexion, the wider the running grounds are needed.
The more programs the unit has, the higher the parameter of the capabilities of the installations for working out the muscles for clients of different age and athletic groups. For example, a function with the monitoring of the pulse dependence can monitor the status of a client who requires constant monitoring of the heart rate. Optional readings are made indicators of calorie consumption, weight, height and amount of burning fat.
