There are lots of great marketing people in the treadmill industry today. Their job is to make you think that you need the features theyre offering when the truth is, you really dont. So what happens is youll spend more money than what youre supposed to.Choose Right Fishing Gear For Right Water

This guide aims to educate you on what these marketing traps are and why you should avoid them. And as a result, youll be able to save money on treadmills youll be buying.
1) Extended Warranties
Some treadmill sellers will offer extended warranties on their treadmills. If this is the case, I suggest you decline. Most quality treadmill companies cover their product long enough that theres really no need for any extensions. Besides, this option would just cause you more headaches due to some dishonest warranty companies.
2) Program Choices
Another way to save money on treadmills is by choosing a machine with only a few built-in workout programs. Most people dont really use these programs and if they do, they more often than not stick to just 1 or 2 programs. So buying a treadmill with tons of programmed workouts would be a total waste of money.
3) Heart Rate Straps
Since working out in your target heart rate offers numerous benefits, treadmill companies nowadays offer heart rate straps for an extra fee. If this was offered to you, always say no. Heart rate straps are very uncomfortable when running. So youll probably just try it once and never use it again.

It is more comfortable to use and is already included in most treadmills, no need to pay extra.So, you didnt know it was hot did you? Do you even know what Orienteering is?

4) Folding Feature
Although I do admit it does save space at home, but after a long grueling workout, some people may no longer want to fold and move the treadmill, only to unfold and move it back again the next day. So just save your money and buy a non-folding treadmill.
5) Running Belt
Treadmill companies would try to impress you with large running spaces and overly thick belts. Truth is... the larger the belt, the harder the motor has to work to keep the belt moving. And thick belts tend to hold additional heat which decreases the belt life. So dont be lured by impressive belt sizes. Just choose a belt that you can comfortably run on and nothing more. The standard 18x 52 belt is enough for most runners.
