Default TReadClimber

Hi Suzanne. I don't have a treadclimber, but, I have used the one at the gym. It is an awesome workout! The commercial is true when it states that you get the workout in half the time!! On a treadmill, I normally can go for an hour at 3.0. On the treadclimber, I have to lower to 2.5 just so I could stay on for an 1/2 hour. I really felt it on my behind and my legs. I think that it would be a good investment.

Are the gym models different than the home version? they are pretty spendy, but i would think the gym version has to be even more and heavy duty???

I've had my Treadclimber since November and I LOVE IT!!! I get a killer workout FAST, just like the ad claims. It has helped me tone and shape my thighs, hips, and fanny.

I picked mine up used for a fraction of the cost of new.

It is TOTALLY different than an elliptical. An elliptical does a smooth, oval motion. This is like walking up-hill.

I haven't seen any Treadclimbers in gyms near me . . . probably because I only walk by them and never actually go inside. They are definitely a gym quality piece of equipment though.

Yep, that sounds totaly different from the elliptical machine. I don't know, I'm from a flat state and walking up hill kills me! It's definately not in my budget or space constraints right now, but I'm glad I heard about it. I may consider the purchase at some future date.

Woohoo! I'm so glad I found this thread! I just posted my own thread asking about the treadclimber but nobody has responded to it yet. I'm glad ppl really think it works because if I ever have the money I'm so buying one!!!
