The True ES 9.0 Treadmill - Review

If you want a healthclub quality treadmill to use at home, look no further than the True ES 9.0 treadmill. This machine looks, feels and gets results just like the equipment you are used to using at the gym. But the big advantage is that you won't have to wait your turn to get on it.

The True ES 9.0 treadmill is built with quality, safety and durability in mind. It is powered by a super strong 4-horsepower motor, which is one of the best that you will come across in the home treadmill market. This is capable of withstanding years of use whether you are using it simply to stay fit or for some serious training for races.

There is a wireless heart rate monitor system that is ideal to help you workout in the correct training zone. The wireless system is superior compared to the 'handgrip' style of heart rate monitor seen on cheaper treadmill models.

But the heart rate monitor does more than just show beats per minute. There is a range of heart rate control programs that can be used to ensure that you get the most out of the time that you spend on your treadmill. There is even a 'cruise control' function. This automatically alters the incline and speed of the equipment to ensure that you stay in the optimal heart rate training zone.

The running deck is large, measuring 22" x 60". This is ideal for use by everybody. Even tall athletes, and serious runners with a long stride length will find this to their liking.

The deck has a cushioning system that is softer at the front of the treadmill, and firmer at the rear to allow a strong 'push-off'. You can further customise the cushioning effect to your personal requirements as this is one of the few home treadmills that has this ability.

Comfort is not forgotten either. There is a reading rack, stands for a couple of water bottles and a fan.
