Benefits of the Residential Manual Treadmill
-
BURNS MORE CALORIES
Life is busy and with so little time to exercise, you need to make your minutes count. This is partly why running on a curved manual treadmill is so popular; it requires a 37% greater oxygen uptake and 22% higher heart rate compared to running on a track or a motorized treadmill at the same velocity¹. This means whether you prefer walking or jogging, your heart (and your waistline) will thank you. This also means you don’t have to resort to soul-crushing HIIT workouts on a Blitz Air Bike — you’re welcome 😉 -
SAVES MONEY
Have you seen electricity costs lately? They’re shocking. But with a manual treadmill, no power is no problem! Unlike a motorized treadmill, this type of manual cardio machine uses ZERO electricity (besides the battery-powered console) because it’s self-propelled. The curved design, smooth ball bearings, and your forward locomotion are what turn the belt, instead of a costly motor and electrical parts that’ll eventually need replacing. Plus, it’s practically maintenance-free: other than an occasional dusting, there’s no belt-tightening or lubricating needed! The result is a more affordable treadmill, so you can keep your budget running at full power ⚡ -
IDEAL FOR WALKING/JOGGING
For light to moderate cardio, the Residential Manual Treadmill excels. Its 8.4-degree curve with 112 ball bearings offers an ultra-smooth glide, and the high-strength nylon slats absorb impact to protect your joints. Although it technically has no speed limit (it’s a manual treadmill, after all), we don’t recommend intense running or all-out sprints on this unit. The 47″ x 17.3″ running deck and 4-inch wide foot rails are smaller than an average treadmill, making this manual treadmill more suitable for walking and jogging — especially if you’re tall.
