Give your members the industry-leading cardio experience on the Incline Trainer and deliver faster results. Whether running or walking, training at an incline increases heart rate, muscle activation, and calorie expenditure, all while reducing the impact that leads to injury – featuring an industry-leading 30% incline and -3% decline.
WALKING AT 3 KM/H AND 21% INCLINE CAN BURN 3X THE FAT CALORIES COMPARED TO RUNNING AT 9.5 KM/H ON A FLAT SURFACE.
GET ELEVATED RESULTS
Incline training improves fitness faster than working out on flat surfaces. Whether you’re running or walking, training at an incline increases heart rate, muscle activation, and calorie expenditure, all with less perceived exertion and while reducing the impact that leads to injury.
BURN MORE CALORIES
With an industry-leading 30% incline and a -3% decline available at the touch of a button, you can burn more fat calories on the Incline Trainer, with less perceived exertion. With the primary fuel source coming from fat, walking at a 30% incline burns 3.6 times more calories than walking on a flat surface.
TWO WORKOUTS IN ONE
Build lower-body muscles while improving your cardiovascular fitness on the Incline Trainer. More effective than flat surface and stair training, walking or running at an incline increases muscle activation throughout your posterior chain and delivers an excellent workout – especially for your glutes.
DEVELOP ECCENTRIC STRENGTH
Utilize decline training to better prepare for races or outdoor running and improve postural awareness. Decline training teaches the body to decelerate and develops eccentric strength while helping to prevent falls in a safe environment.
ADD VARIETY TO YOUR WORKOUT
The unique rear motor design of the Incline Trainer creates the platform for dynamic agility training – like side shuffles, high knee skipping and carioca. Progress your workout by practicing these athletic movement patterns without incline and, when ready, increase the incline to increase the muscle challenge and cardiovascular intensity.
INCREASE HEART RATE
Elevate your heart rate and the efficiency of your exercise routine by taking your workout up a notch or two. With double the incline potential of a standard treadmill, you can get your heart pumping faster and endorphins flowing more freely, whether you’re running or walking at an incline.
IMPROVE YOUR BIOMECHANICS
Incline training also increases your efficiency by subconsciously improving your form, forcing a faster step turnover and shorter, more efficient strides.
It also facilitates a shift to a mid-foot strike and optimal toe push-off, rather than the less productive and injury-prone heel-strike used by many runners. You’ll feel your calf muscles, hamstrings, and glutes activate as you reduce braking forces and achieve optimal power.
