Treadmills that take the pounding

Evo Fitness recently exhibited at the 2003 Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association Super Show. Most of the major treadmill manufacturers were represented. We were honored to be distinguished by the world renowned L.A. Times.

In the article "Treadmills that take a pounding," by Roy Wallack, he stated that, "Last year, 40 million Americans used treadmills, and consumers bought more of them than all other home exercise machines combined." He went on to say, "Although pricey (the pounding quickly destroys sub-$1,500 models), quality treads deliver unbeatable aerobic bang for the buck."

The EVO 2 treadmill was given the "Top Choice" in the $2,000-$3,000 price range. With a "tougher motor and heart-rate control" the EVO 2 gives you a "run for your money." Wallack describes it as:

Detailed precision with a funky twist.

Smooth EVO-2: First treadmill that allows you to speed up or slow down the machine by waving a hand over a sensor on the hand rail.

Likes: Long, 62-inch tread belt. Funky styling. Large, easy-to-read panel displays. A novel "swingarm" suspension that provides extra cushioning for your body. Rated - "Great Value"

At EVO Fitness we feel privileged to receive this recognition from one of the nation's top publications.
