About this deal

The cold can be an issue, increasing your chance of pulling a muscle, whilst ice makes the ground too slippery to run on safely. Or, quite frankly, it can be daunting and legitimately dangerous for some of us to go out after dark. You can still get your heart rate up though with 3 good incline levels, which will tax your quads quite heavily whilst increasing your bpm rate. he so called Cushionstep technology is essentially an 8 point suspension system but it works to soften the impact of each step – and although we can’t attest to the 30% claim of lower impact on the joints, we can certainly say that all three of our testers found it a lot more comfortable on the joints than road running. Like the Pro 9000 and the X32i, it’s a beast of a machine, so keep scrolling if you’re short on space. 2. Domyos 4530C Smart Treadmill The belt balanced bounce with firmness, allowing us to generate plenty of power with each stride while providing a comfortable amount of cushioning. Testers also raved about the inclusion of easy-access adjustable speed and incline dials on the arms, rather than the usual buttons on the control panel.

Other than this, though, you get far more than you pay for with a straightforward, elegant, and incredibly well-built machine that has an impressive 2 year at-home repair warranty. The Sprint 3 is designed to last and is also designed to provide a good level of challenge and manages to mix this with impressive functionality – not usually two qualities that you find in lower priced models. The JTX Sprint 3 is trim and mobile, yet incredibly smooth and with an impressive array of stats, all for a really reasonable price – especially when compared to the other models in the JTX Sprint range. If that doesn’t sound like your thing, there’s a whole world of other apps, tech and services available to help you stay engaged and keep using the machine. Another idea for making workouts fun is Zombies Run, an app that builds a storyline around your workouts, encouraging you to speed up when you’re being “chased”. And you can still have your distance, pace, cadence and speed logged alongside your heart rate by using a footpod like the Zwift Runpod. The extra bonus with Zwift is you get to take part in a virtual run onscreen so even if you’re social distancing at home you can use your treadmill to get out and about virtually. What’s running on it like? The fat-burning workout modes will generally last about an hour or so, while the other ones are relatively short. Advanced functionality

Reception of this running machine

The Sprint 3 is the Sprint 9’s younger brother and boasts all of design finesse inherent to the range. Sturdy and well put together, with an elegantly neat design whose simplicity belies just how much fun it is to use, the Sprint 3 is a work of brilliance.

Top speed: Sure, you're probably not running as fast as Dina Asher-Smith, but you don't want to find yourself frustrated because you're unable to run to your full potential. We've rounded up the top speeds for each treadmill below to help you make the right decision. The Performance 600i is great value for money, does everything you need it to do admirably, and is incredibly well designed and put together. The console itself looks a bit basic, but don’t let it fool you- it’s top-quality. The numbers and buttons are all large and clear, making the Nero Pro good for those with poorer eyesight, and there aren’t too many overly fiddly menus to sort through. The display will show you distance, calories spent, time and speed, which is all useful data to inform your training, and there is a safety clip attached so the machine will shut down if you slip. Another essential feature of the treadmill is it’s cushioning. My last folding treadmill had a rigid running belt, which the manufacturer justified as an unavoidable trait of folding treadmills. We don’t know if this is completely accurate but this is certainly one of the most comfortable treadmills to run on in terms of the stress it places on the lower body joints.

JTX fitness has focused on making an appropriate running machine for home use. The treadmill is equipped with high-quality components similar to tech commercial treadmills, and these parts add to the treadmill’s life and make it great for long-term use. Well, often if it’s not just about the treadmill features, i.e. whether the treadmill folds, whether it holds up to a gym treadmill, or if it’s an electric treadmill; sometimes it’s about how much space it takes up, how much energy it consumes or whether it’ll look nice with one of your rowing machines. A cheap treadmill doesn’t mean bad, but wider considerations are important too. Is running at maximum speed on a cheap treadmill dangerous? and do they have a good max speed anyway? No matter how good the crop, there will always be the cream – for us, this is Proform’s Performance 600i. It has a solid reputation for good quality and customer satisfaction and has recently become a lot more affordable. If you want a 2 in 1 option, it’s great. You will be able to up your daily step count easily. Otherwise, there are better options.

We tested the Sprint 3 for almost one month and in that time we had three different runners using the machine. We had both male and female users ranging in height from 5’5″ to 6’2″ and all had no trouble at all with the dimensions of the treadmill. In the case of JTX Sprint 3, you won’t have to worry about clearing a separate area, as the treadmill has a folding reinforced steel frame. A folding treadmill is excellent at protecting your valuable floor space.

Review: What we like about the JTX Sprint 3

Nevertheless, JTX fitness is famous for its motor’s reliability and strength; the company provides high-quality motors that last for several years. The 2hp motor in JTX Sprint 3 is perfect for your everyday use; it can run up to 16 km/h, which shall help increase your used calories count. Key specs – Size: 206.5 x 89.5 x 157cm (LWH); Speed range: 0-22km/h; Incline range: 0-15%; Motor: 2.5CHP (4.5 PHP) The Sportstech F10 is simple, in a good and a bad way. It’s perfect for the casual jogger who needs no frills. For the more experienced runner, or those who like their gadgets fancy and reliable, there are better options on the market. The machine is easy to use in both settings: it’s portable, storable and navigable, making it a good bet. The machine itself is quiet and it comes with a good-quality music system and tablet holder, to maintain a good user experience and give you a good workout.
