Hi! My partner and I are thinking about purchasing a home treadmill for the winter and impending increase in COVID cases in our college town. Looking for any advice on what to consider and thought this community might have some good ideas.
We’re most concerned with:
* Durability – he’s almost 200 pounds and likes to use it to run a fast mile to warmup every day before lifting, and we want it to last under that use case.
* Ease of use with structured workouts – I’ve been doing an 80-20 plan all summer and generally like to keep up some foundation and some pace workouts to supplement backcountry skiing in the winter and make the spring transition back to more running easier – the treadmill I used last winter at the gym had some built in pace workouts customized to your zones which were really nice – not sure if I’m dreaming about that possibility for a home treadmill, but any ease of use considerations would be great!
Thanks for your thoughts in advance!
