Treadmills
A running partner to get you moving at home
You want a fitness equipment that complements your workout routine well? Running or jogging is one of the most popular sports in Switzerland. Thereby, a treadmill offers some decisive advantages compared to training outside.
With a treadmill you run or jog joint-friendly and healthy
A treadmill offers an uncomplicated endurance workout for beginners, advanced users and professionals. With this popular training device, you get a fitness partner at home that can be adjusted to your workout routine and dampens and cushions the running movements, unlike jogging outside.
If you are considering buying a treadmill, it pays to compare the different brands and devices well. Shark Fitness offers you the opportunity to test the devices on site in Wettingen (AG) or Wil (SG). However, based on the technical data and additional features, you can also filter out the treadmill that best suits you online.

What to look for when buying a treadmill
Treadmills are available with different masses. The space conditions at your home are therefore crucial. In addition to the length and width, but also the height of the device but also the running surface is crucial. Finally, you should take into account the body size of the runner so that there is still enough space to the ceiling.

Not always is bigger equal to better. As far as the running surface of a treadmill is concerned, however, a larger surface provides a safer running feeling, especially for beginners. In addition, the running surface is also in relation to the body size of the runner to calculate. So provided you have enough space at home, invest in a treadmill with a certain footprint.
.
What motor power a good treadmill should have depends on the desired training and the physical constitution of the runner. The motor is braked by the impact energy at the moment of impact and must use a certain amount of power to overcome this braking force. The speed at which you run and your body weight add to the braking force and strain the motor's power. For treadmills with motor, we therefore recommend at least a power of 2 HP.
