The Buzz

The curved pedestals are made of roll formed steel so that even larger individuals will experience a solid running platform with no shake or vibration. The True ES 9.0 treadmill offers neoprene shock absorbers in the front third of the deck which cushion every foot strike, while at the rear of the deck where your back foot pushes off, the cushioning is firmer. Another interesting feature of the True ES9.0 is the negative 3% incline, which will helps to develop the quads while simulating downhill sections of hill climb programs.

The True ES9.0 is a serious machine for home gym users. Treadmill reviews cite the elegant features of this high performance machine but also point out that it delivers reliability and numerous training options. For example, fitness buffs can utilize the HRC Cruise Control™ that locks in on your targeted heart rate and then adjusts speed and incline automatically throughout the duration of the HR workout. This takes the guesswork out of your daily running regime, and helps you achieve maximum cardio benefits and fitness results that much faster.
