Whip yourself into shape without ever leaving the home with the Reebok X5 incline training treadmill. The X5 is powerful and smooth, with a 2.0-horsepower, commercial-grade motor that sustains speeds of up to 10 miles per hour, along with a sturdy 20-by-52-inch running belt with DuraSoft cushioning to protect your joints. Users will also appreciate the iFit workout card technology. Designed by certified personal trainers, iFit cards plug directly into the treadmill's console to automatically adjust your speed and decline as you jog, with a personal trainer's voice directing you through each workout. Perhaps the most challenging feature, however, is the incline platform, which adjusts all the way up to 30 percent. There's no more efficient way to build your quads while boosting your cardio performance.
The Reebok X5 will keep you in tiptop shape thanks to its 10 incline workouts, five speed workouts, four heart rate workouts, and four "learning" programs, which let you design a custom routine and store it in the treadmill's memory. And it's easy to monitor your progress using the multi-window LED display, which tracks your distance, elapsed time, and calories burned. Other details include a heart rate sensor built into the grip; two CoolAire workout fans to keep you comfortable; a digital resistance system that lets you work your upper body as well as your lower body; and graphical displays for your training zone and incline elevation. The X5 is backed by a lifetime warranty on the motor and a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
About Treadmills
Walking is still considered one of the most beneficial cardiovascular exercises for people of all ages, body types, and fitness levels. As a fundamental form of aerobic training, walking has numerous physical benefits for the heart, lungs, and circulatory system, while also increasing muscle tone and burning fat calories. Treadmills provide a convenient way to regularly exercise in all weather conditions in the comfort and safety of your own home.
From beginners just starting an exercise regimen to advanced athletes looking to maintain their fitness level, anyone interested in getting and staying in shape can benefit greatly from regular use of a treadmill. Treadmills allow you to determine the pace, distance, and complexity of the workout based on your needs, all while watching television, talking on the telephone, or reading a magazine. Much easier on sensitive joints like the knees and hips, treadmill walking and running surfaces are typically long, padded platforms that allow ample room for a long stride and comfortable, low-impact walk or jog without the harsh contact of a concrete surface.
While many different types, styles, and price ranges of treadmills exist, many of them offer unique features like a fold-up design for easy storage, an electronic display monitor showing speed, distance, workout time, incline level, and burned calories, and EKG grip pulses to monitor the heart rate while exercising. Regardless of the simple to complex features you may choose, treadmills offer an array of aerobic exercise opportunities that will provide long-lasting beneficial cardiovascular results without a commute to the gym or a jog in the rain.
About Reebok
Reebok's United Kingdom-based ancestor company was founded for one of the best reasons possible: athletes wanted to run faster. So, in the 1890s, Joseph William Foster made some of the first known running shoes with spikes in them. By 1895, he was in business making shoes by hand for top runners; and before long his fledgling company, J.W. Foster and Sons, developed an international clientele of distinguished athletes. In 1958, two of the founder's grandsons started a companion company that came to be known as Reebok, named for an African gazelle.
