Livestrong T1xe Treadmill Review
Livestrong was founded by Lance Armstrong. Lance is a famous cyclist who won the Tour de France several times even after surviving cancer. For someone to win an endurance race after living through cancer is very inspirational. He decided to form the Livestrong foundation to help others who are suffering from cancer. The Livestrong fitness equipment is inspired by Lance and a donation is made to the foundation of $4 million. The Livestrong T1xe treadmill is made by Matrix who make their own line of successful commercial fitness equipment.
The treadmill has a speed range from 0.5 mph to 12 mph. This is a good range and is what you’ll find on most treadmills in gyms or health clubs. To give you an idea of speed jogging is around 6 mph and 12 mph equates to a 5 minute mile. There’s not many people who can achieve a 5 minute mile and you wouldn’t normally find them on a treadmill, they’ll go to a running track. The incline goes up to 15% so you get quite a gradient. Some people like doing an uphill warm up or cool down and that can be done here.
The deck is 60″ long so runners with any length of stride will be ok here. The width is 20″ so even the most unconfident new starter should feel they can learn to run on this treadmill easily. The deck is cushioned with a commercial system so there is less impact on the joints. The fact that the deck needs no maintenance until it’s done 25,000 miles will save money for the health center or ease the mind of the home buyer. The step up to the deck is a low 7.5″ so it’s easily accessible.
The console as you can see by the picture has clear buttons which do the job you want it to do. The 7″ screen has two functions. It shows all the workout information you need including speed, distance, calories burned and more. It also is a digital television. As you see so much in health centers today the treadmills being used are the ones with the TV’s attached. It’s something clearly wanted and you have it here on the Livestrong T1xe. It makes your workout go quicker and is something to do while some runners go those miles.
The manual workout program where you control all the settings will probably be used the most. There are other workout options and these are rolling hills, fat burn, 5k, target HR and Gerkin protocol. The heart rate program is used with the heart rate sensors or it can pick up the heart rate from a chest belt. The T1xe is a great treadmill and is the step up from the T1x. The T1x doesn’t have the 7″ TV and that is the only difference. Whether you’re a commercial operator or a home user you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the Livestrong T1xe treadmill so it’s one to consider.
