Why Buy a Precor

Fitness professionals around the world recommend the treadmill more than any other piece of home exercise equipment because it is functional and easy to use, and when used correctly provides an ideal way to strengthen and improve cardiovascular health. There are more treadmill brands and products to choose from than other kinds of fitness equipment. Such selection can be daunting as you try and determine which treadmill will work best for you and your family. How to choose?

One of the easiest ways to narrow your search for the right treadmill is to limit you decision to those manufacturers who have a history of producing treadmills for fitness facilities. A company that produces treadmills used for hours on end every day in a fitness facility is likely to produce a quality treadmill that can withstand the usage patterns of the typical home.

That certainly is the case with Precor. For the past 20 years, we've been creating products that have withstood the most trying environments and the most demanding users. That's because we design and produce every product to help the user exercise with less friction and more flow. Precor products have been designed to work with the body's natural movements instead of against them, so users get a heightened sense of moving well.

So what is it about Precor treadmills that help you move so well?

• Ground Effects® Impact Control System. This patented system absorbs the shock of impact while you walk or run. Reducing impact lowers the risk of injury to lower back, knees, shins and ankles. In addition, Ground Effects controls lateral motion, providing an increased sense of security.
• Integrated Footplant™ technology. Unique to Precor, this feature preserves your natural gait by accommodating foot speed changes that occur with every step. It creates a more natural walking/running motion to help you stay balanced and in control of your stride.
• Advanced motors. Don't be fooled by the "bigger is always better" rhetoric associated with treadmill horsepower ratings. Precor treadmill motors are matched with the treadmill's other components to provide the ideal treadmill experience. Running cool and quiet, Precor treadmill motors provide substantial power and torque at all speeds. Equipped with a constant-speed cooling fan, our motors perform efficiently at slower speeds, which also increase overall motor life and reliability.
• Exercise variety with pre-programmed courses. The most successful exercise program is one that you stick with over time, and Precor treadmills help you in that endeavor by offering programs that are challenging and motivating.
• Ease of use. Precor treadmills are designed with easy-to-read, navigable consoles that make sense. With the QuickStart feature, you'll be on your treadmill and exercising with the touch of a button.
• Low maintenance. While Precor treadmills require basic care, maintaining the running deck is easy because it requires no maintenance: it's self-lubricating. And because the deck is reversible, its life is doubled.

Those are just a few of the reasons that Precor should be your choice when it comes to treadmills. To really experience the difference and to feel the unique motion, it's best to experience Precor in person.
