<p>The LifeSpan <a href="http://www.lifespanfitness.com/TR4000i_treadmill.asp">TR4000i treadmill</a> was featured as one of the best treadmills for runners in the latest issue of Runner’s World.  According to the premier magazine for runners, the LifeSpan TR4000i folding treadmill gives runners the ‘Most from the Smallest Space’.   It is sized perfectly to save space in your home, while providing the power, durability, and performance runners need.
</p>
<p>
The TR4000i meets all the criteria experts recommend in the article for runners looking to buy a treadmill – 1) large motor, 2) spacious running surface, 3) easy to use controls and a deck that feels good underfoot, 4) great mix of hill and speed interval programs, and 5) solid warranty supported by quality service.
</p>
<p>
In addition, the TR4000i includes a USB data port to save workout data as you exercise, for easy uploading to a personal online health and fitness management account. View and track all your exercise (indoor and outdoor), and your vital stats in one place. You’ll see daily, weekly, and lifetime accomplishments too.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The TR200 MyTread Experience&#8230; from Bruce Pechman</p>
<p>
&quot;My personal use of the <a href="http://www.lifespanfitness.com/TR200_treadmill.asp">TR200</a> MyTread for almost a month has been nothing less than stellar and I love it! It has a rock solid frame, and it combines high-end treadmill features and attributes with the bonus of folding away quickly and easily by just turning the blue round caps on each side at the bottom deck (remember to lift the quick release lever). The console controls are simple and intuitive to use.&quot;
</p>
<p>
&quot;There really is no other treadmill to consider in the “Home Ultra Compact” category. The closest competitor, the Evolve treadmill by Horizon, is the same price BUT can’t do ANY incline, has a smaller motor, and has no lifetime warranty on its frame.&quot;

<p>The LifeSpan TR2000 <a title="Folding Treadmills" href="http://www.lifespanfitness.com/products_TR2000HRC.asp" target="_blank">folding treadmill</a> is the &#8220;Lightweight Champ&#8221; and one of the four best treadmills on the market, according to a review in the <a title="TR2000 Article" href="http://www.latimes.com/features/health/fitness/la-he-gear17-2008nov17-pg,0,2607763.photogallery" target="_blank">L.A. Times Health section</a>.</p>
<p>The LifeSpan TR2000 folding treadmill is ideal for small spaces, has great safety features, good performance and comes with a 5% decline.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 210px"><img title="TR2000 Treadmill" src="http://blog.lifespanfitness.com/wp-content/themes/simplicitybright/images/tr2000.jpg" alt="TR2000 Treadmill" width="200" height="200" /><p class="wp-caption-text">TR2000 Treadmill</p></div>
<p>The pros of this <a title="Compact Treadmills" href="http://www.lifespanfitness.com/products_HOME_treadmills.asp" target="_blank">compact treadmill</a> are the very small footprint due to a unique design with the motor under-the-belt, and the 2.5 horsepower engine that provides a maximum speed of 10 mph and lets you walk uphill and downhill.  Convenient handlebar speed and incline control toggle buttons let you adjust at full stride.  This small size treadmill (only 63.5 inches long) offers a full size running deck (56 inches). The TR2000 treadmill review also states, Child-safe belt pauses after 20 seconds of nonuse. Feels firm compared to other treads in this price range.</p>
<p>The treadmill is priced at $1,499.00 and can be found at <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a title="Treadmills" href="http://www.lifespanfitness.com/" target="_blank">www.lifespanfitness.com</a></span>, or call (877) 654-3837</p>
