Folding & Static Treadmills | Home & Commercial Gym Equipment | MuscleSquad

Treadmills

Treadmills are an essential piece of equipment in any home or commercial gym. Whether you’re looking to tuck one away in your living room or deck out a professional space, our easy-to-understand treadmill range allows you to make a smart purchasing decision without sifting through endlessly-similar products.

 

What you should know about treadmills

Treadmills are a simple concept that have stood the test of time: let’s bring running indoors. They work by having a motorised belt run over a long deck, allowing you to jog in a small footprint.

Over the years, treadmills have evolved to become an even more effective piece of kit, with features like adjustable inclines and pre-programmed routines enabling people to push their cardio even further. Top-range treadmills even come with Bluetooth support and, in some cases, TV screens so that you can jog while watching your favourite shows.

We sell three treadmill models to keep our range simple and easy to navigate. Before purchasing, we always recommend that people lay some floor tiles beneath their treadmill. Two tiles will give you all the coverage you need. Watch an overview of our treadmill range from Head of Product Chris, or read on for a brief summary.

FAQs

01

What are the benefits of a treadmill versus running outside?

Running on a treadmill has a number of benefits. The clearest one is that it enables you to train year-round. Rain or shine, when you run indoors there’s never a reason to skip a session.

It’s also safer to run on a treadmill. Many people choose not to run at night due to safety concerns, so bringing that experience into the comfort of your own home adds some peace of mind to your training.

Your joints will also thank you. While running on a soft surface like grass is unlikely to cause pain, running on concrete can damage your joints and ankles over time due to the consistent impact they take.

02

Can I use a treadmill for anything other than jogging? 

You can get inventive with your treadmill by introducing sprints and other interval-training routines into your schedule. You’ll be able to find these on any of the treadmills we stock in the pre-programmed routine list, or you can find a video on YouTube to follow if your treadmill is from a different manufacturer.

03

Should I get a folding or static treadmill?

It all depends on the space you have available. When space is at a premium, consider going for a folding option. If you have the space to house a dedicated treadmill, then a fixed option will give you extra functionality without needing to mess around with folding the product down after use.

The P100 Folding Treadmill is our most portable solution, with the ability to fold flat and tuck away behind a door or under a bed being a key reason why customers choose it.

That said, sometimes you need your equipment to have a presence. When you’re looking for a focal piece for your gym, or a dedicated high-performance treadmill, then the P300 comes into its own.

04

Are treadmills better for your joints than running outside?

Yes — generally speaking. Running on a treadmill is kinder on your joints than running on pavement, but not as kind as running on grass. All of our treadmills have a cushioned deck which protects your ankles as you run, whereas concrete has no give as you land.

05

How do I find the max user weight of a treadmill?

Our P100 treadmill is suitable for users below 110kg, our P200 is suitable for those under 135kg and our P300 semi-commercial treadmill is rated to 150kg. 

For other manufacturers, simply look at the product on their website to find what the max user weight is.

06

Why do you recommend placing floor tiles underneath a treadmill?

Treadmills handle your weight better when they’re on a flat, even surface. This might not be the case with your standard living room carpet, so we recommend investing in a pair of rubber floor tiles to cushion the impact and keep the treadmill stable.

07

How do I maintain my treadmill after purchasing?

Treadmill maintenance is a simple but necessary process. We have a full guide on maintaining your treadmill, but the essentials are…

08

How will my treadmill be delivered?

Your treadmill will be delivered by one of our couriers on a 5-10 working day service. You’ll be contacted 48 hours before delivery with the choice between a morning and afternoon slot, and you’ll be able to choose a ground floor room in your house for the delivery team to place your treadmill in.

09

Will it come pre-assembled?

Our P100 Treadmill arrives fully assembled and ready for use. Our P200 and P300 require some basic assembly, but this shouldn’t take you more than 30 minutes. 

10

What’s the warranty on your treadmills?

All of our treadmills come with one year of warranty.

11

Do you offer free delivery?

Yes, all orders over £50 qualify for free shipping. Please note that orders to Northern Ireland and certain areas of Scotland may incur additional delivery charges.

12

Can I return or exchange my purchase if I change my mind?
