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.

Make it easy and affordable to get into shape in your own home with the Merit 710T treadmill, which folds easily for storage. A great choice for both walkers and recreational runners, the 710T has a 1.25 continuous horsepower motor that provides a speed range of 1.5 to 10 miles per hour. The Merit 710T treadmill also offers up to 1.75 percent of elevation for added resistance. The computer console displays time, speed, and level, and it features two cup holders, handles, and a thumb contact heart rate monitor. The Merit 710T treadmill features four preset programs, including manual, intervals, rolling, and weight loss.

About Stair Steppers:

Stair steppers continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same benefits as running stairs, but with the “any time, in any weather, without having to leave the comfort and safety of your home” added convenience. Stair steppers don’t take up much space, require moderate balance and coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. Following on the heels of treadmills and exercise bikes, stair steppers took their first step towards fitness machine success in the early 1980s. Like most exercise equipment, stair steppers have come a long way, technically speaking. Advanced computers on most newer models allow users to track their vitals at a glance. However, the most important benefits of stair steppers are still the basic ways they provide excellent cardiovascular workouts that get the heart pounding, along with the impact the exercise has on muscle tone in the legs, thighs, and buttocks. Stair steppers continue to offer an exercise that is less jarring than treadmills, but more intense than elliptical trainers.

The Pivot MS 100 Multi-Directional Stepper with Resistance Band offers two unique and powerful sets of workout routines in one compact machine. A fat-burning cardiovascular workout helps you burn fat while improving your overall cardiovascular functions, while the Pivot’s toning and resistance workout helps to sculpt your hips, buttocks, and thighs. Pivot’s unique low-impact motion not only moves up and down, but also pivots from side to side, allowing your workouts to target multiple muscle groups from different angles. An easy-to-use training computer keeps you on track by monitoring the calories you’re burning, your total number of strides, and your overall workout time. Special resistance bands allow you to take full advantage of the many exercise possibilities the Pivot Multi-Directional Stepper has to offer. Simply attach the bands to the base and you’re ready to go. The MS 100 is compact and can be easily stored in a closet or under the bed and effortlessly transported to where you want to work out.
