Podcast 4: Pros and Cons of Manual Treadmills

In this podcast I discuss the pros and cons of manual treadmills. Unfortunately, I’ll be discussing more cons than pros so that should give you an idea right off the bat what I think about these types of cheap treadmills!

I understand it can be tempting to buy a manual treadmill if you are on a tight budget – especially when you can find them for a few hundred dollars or less. However, after listening to this episode I think you’ll agree it will be smarter for you to hold off on that purchase until you can afford a motorized treadmill. If buying a motorized treadmill is simply out of the question, then make an effort to get outside to get your cardio or use the money towards a gym membership as they will be far more effective than manual treadmills. Listen to this episode to find out why!
