Bowflex Treadclimber or Treadmill?


 Powered by Max Banner Ads 

I'm really interested in the Bowflex Treadclimber, but have read different reviews on it saying it breaks down a lot and having to get off it to change your resistence slows your workout down. I'm really interested in this machine, but reluctant to spend SO much money on something that may not be worth it. If anyone can tell me of their experience with the treadclimber, or the treadclimber vs. a treadmill, I'd really appreciate it.

Treadclimber isn’t that different, and i bet you its almost the same, except that you can burn a little more, just stick to a normal one. or even run around the neighborhood, which is even better believe it or not.. Even a highschool track field is great for this cardio

I would definietly go for the treadmill if I were you, especially if you are aiming at weight loss. The treadclimber tends to hurt the soles of your feet after about 15minutes where as the treadmill is just like walking/running outside but more smooth. The treadmill is better for weight loss to because you can alter your workouts for your mood, and have variety EG: you can jog or walk or do incline (hill) training. Its up to you but you would be much better off choosing the treadmill

Hello,

I used to work in the treadmill retail industry. I can personally attest to the frequent breakdowns of the treadmclimbers by any company. Maybe in a few years they’ll be better, but for now they have yet to impress me. Second, they just feel so strange when working out on them. Doesn’t feel natural at all.
