What is the best treadmill for home?

Training at home is more popular than ever. Whether you want to lose weight, improve your fitness or simply stay fit: a treadmill for home is the ideal solution. But which treadmill best suits your wishes and home situation? In this blog we explain what to look out for and line up the best Sportconic treadmills for you.

Why choose a treadmill at home?

A treadmill at home offers many benefits:

🕒 Always available: Train whenever it suits you
🌧️ Weather-independent: Rain or heat? No problem!
📺 Train & multitask: Watch a series or work while you walk
💪 Targeted training: Set your own pace and incline for an effective workout

What should you look out for when buying a treadmill?

Not every treadmill is suitable for home use or a small space. So pay close attention to the following points:

1. Size and foldability

Do you live in a small space? Then choose a foldable treadmill with transport wheels. The size of the running surface is important: a larger surface offers more comfort, but often also costs more. If you're content with a more compact running surface, you can opt for a more affordable model.

2. Motor power

A powerful motor (at least 1.5-2.0 hp continuous) is important for longer or intensive sessions. A strong motor also increases the lifespan of the treadmill. The Sportconic models all have a power of at least 2 hp; the 106FA and T155 even have 2.5 hp.

3. Cushioning of the running surface

A well-cushioning running surface prevents injuries to knees and joints. This allows you to train more often and longer, with less risk of complaints compared to outdoor sports on an uneven surface.

4. Speed and incline

Are you a runner? Then a top speed of 10 to 14 km/h is recommended. An incline function is also nice for extra challenge. Pay close attention to the maximum speed of the model and choose what suits your training goal.

5. Display and training programmes

Most treadmills have a display on which you can read speed, time, distance and calorie consumption. For extra motivation, models with preset programmes or app integration are ideal.
