The Spirit Z900 light commercial treadmill is designed to keep you motivated and keep you moving. All Spirit treadmills feature the heaviest-duty chassis and motors in their class, making them durable and long lasting. Beginning with powder-coated steel frames and heavy-duty stable inclines, Spirit adds industrial-quality motors with large-diameter, all-steel balanced flywheels to create a vibration-free, secure walking and running surface. The Z900 itself sports a 3.5 horsepower motor with a 0.5 to 12 mile-per- hour speed range, along with 3-inch drive rollers that give the two-ply belt superior performance and durability. And thanks to the treadmill's over-sized frame, which is specifically designed for commercial applications, you can rest assured that the Z900 will hold up to heavy use over time.
The large, easy-to-operate data console features six standard preprogrammed workouts, a pair of user-defined programs, a pair of heart-rate control programs to maximize the efficiency of workouts, 12 quick speed and elevation buttons, and 10 convenient "one- touch" program keys. The six-window display even offers a 1/4-mile track to give you extra motivation when the going gets tough. Other details include a hand-grip heart rate monitor with an optional telemetric heart rate belt; a heart rate graph on the console; a 32-character message window that provides motivational feedback; a 0 to 15 percent elevation belt; ergonomically positioned speed and elevation controls on the handles; built-in cooling fans to assist users in comfort; and a CD/MP3 interface with built-in speakers. The Z900 also comes with a host of warranties: a lifetime warranty on the frame, a 30-year warranty on the motor, a five-year warranty on the electronics and wear items, and a one-year warranty on 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.
