I’ve Mastered Training on a Treadmill!
I want to make rapid progress in running. What if I went up a gear and bought a treadmill? With ProForm equipment that is compatible with iFit® solutions, there is access to a multitude of training programmes that are perfect for getting started and staying motivated over time. All I have to do to get started is choose my treadmill model.
Why Should I Use a Treadmill?
I’ve decided to exercise more regularly by running. Getting a treadmill could be the best way to achieve my goals:
- It’s raining, it’s cold, and there are traffic jams on the road. I don’t have a babysitter to look after the children? No more excuses. I can work out whenever I want on my Performance 375i in the comfort of my living room.
- The gym intimidates me with all those well-trained athletes. At home, nobody is looking at me; I can gain confidence and find my own pace, without any hang-ups, in any outfit I want!
- On my treadmill, I can access personalised training programmes with advice from internationally renowned sports coaches.
- If I feel like getting away from it all, I can try something new: I put my trainers on, launch my iFit® programme and run in magnificent landscapes without leaving home. It only remains for me to decide what part of the world I will conquer today!

Run in Central Park? Check it Out!
Even if I only half admit it to myself, I saw scenes of my film and TV heroes running through my head when I started running: like them, I saw myself running in Central Park. Thanks to iFit®, I can do it! There are 5 sessions of 2 to 9 km available and a total of about 24 km of running routes in the heart of the most famous park in the world for runners. Surrounded by the skyscrapers of New York, with my feet on the treadmill and my head in the stars, I can make my dream come true!
1 Mile is Nothing? Challenge Accepted!
So, 1 mile is not much (1.6 km), but am I ready to run 1 mile a day for 31 days? It’s a safe bet that I’ll succeed in this challenge, motivated by the dream destinations proposed for each session: Japan, Malaysia, Finland, New Zealand, Bulgaria, Croatia, the United States, Scotland, Saudi Arabia and more. See you in a month, after my world tour!
