LifeSpan Fitness TR100 Compact Treadmill

     Looking for a compact treadmill for your small home or apartment?Look no further than the LifeSpan TR100 folding treadmill, which collapses quickly and fits easily under a bed, in a closet, or behind a door (the folded frame measures only 11 inches thick). The TR100--which comes fully assembled and is ready to use right out of the box--is outfitted with a blue LCD console that tracks your time, calories, distance, steps, heart rate, and speed. As a result, it's a breeze to track your workout progress with every routine by viewing the simultaneous readouts and exercise program profile.

     The console also offers such controls as an easy-to-use start button, up/down arrow keys, and a quick-start speed option. The speed option is particularly handy, with buttons to skip directly to 3, 4, 5, or 6 miles per hour in a flash. You can also increase or decrease the speed using the up/down arrow buttons. And to make your workouts more efficient, the console offers five exercise programs that help you vary your exercise routine--a critical factor for people trying to get in shape.

     Other features include contact heart rate grips that let you monitor your heart rate while you exercise; built-in speakers and a headphone port for plugging in your iPod or MP3 player; and a 1.5-horsepower continuous-duty motor.
