Do you like it so far? I'm considering this vs the ProForm Boston Marathon. Yes, these things are super heavy.

Set it up about 4 hours ago. Seems to work well. Wife has workout she's doing on it tomorrow morning. And I may give it a go tomorrow afternoon. We'll let ya know.

Look at what came with the treadmill.

More proof that the more fit you are the more sex you can expect?

Or did Lups send me this treadmill? :

Thanks, in advance.

Why pay for brand names?

not for the brand, for the quality-control. Do you REALLY want sand grains in your LUBE?

Mr Tonka Why not just run outside?

I like running naked.

Not really, although, it was kind of cool to save a pair of shorts and shirt from laundry by running in boxer briefs this morning.

The treadmill is almost exclusively for the wife. I like the idea of using it right now until my knees stop being grumpy.

She has a problem getting her legs to fatigue before her VO2 maxes out when it's hot and humid. So for her to get her legs exercised more she runs intervals on the treadmill. The cooler temps and lower humidity in doors allows her legs to max out before her lungs do. And by working her legs in this fashion, she's training them to be more efficient thus requiring less O2 for the same result or a better result for the same about of O2. Or so that's what her running coach said. Seems to be working as she's getting faster over the same distances.

Anyway, the only gym close to us with a "shower" that doesn't cost an arm and a leg for 24hr access is this old school hole in the wall muscle market gym. They've got 4 treadmills and 1 shower with no towel hanger and is sometimes missing a shower curtain. Plus, last week she got asked out by a guy who recently got out of prison for raping a minor.

i'm not sure where he's taking her, but i hope she brings home some cake or something.

I was told generic was just as good. They said the grains were to exfoliate.

You might want to send the lube with her...just saying.

My biggest gripe is that when you increase or decrease the speed setting, the speed of the belt increases or decreases very slowly. So much so that it's hard to tell when it's stopped increasing. It would be nice if the LCD showed the actual belt speed vs selected speed so you can anticipate how much longer or more it's going to increase in speed. The speakers aren't great, but meh... The fans aren't great, but didn't expect those to be that wonderful either.

We got that one for the large motor and heavy duty belt and frame. Well, and because it folds up.

Minimum 1 degree up to compensate for wind resistance!

Yeah as long as the motor and belt hold up, it should last. Thanks again for sharing your experience. I am also going to check out the proform boston marathon 4.0; heard that it might be a bit high.. need to keep the treadmill in garage.
