Treadmills -- Is TRUE a good t'mill? Any comments or other preferences
Looking for high quality, quiet treadmill so I can huff and puff and sweat at home.
Will be in training for the Vegas Marathon sometime early next year. So I need to get in shape to get into shape.
So need something with programs to alternate between something that is easy on the knees and the street and to keep track of my heart when it's about to burst.
The only way to lose weight was to have a running goal, so here it goes.

My experience is that exercise alone won't do it...
I walk 5mi a day, train w/ dumbells & do situps & pushups. I really think diet is equally as important! I do a low carb(NOT Atkins) thing .Protein & veggies.If your interested email me. I've lost about 25lbs in the last year & have been keeping it off so far. Good luck!

I agree ... and do the chicken and veggies and attempt to reduce carbs
have drastically reduced pasta/bread/potato intake but need diet and exercise to work together...
I don't agree w/ Atkins altogether -- reducing carbs is good but so is reducing fat. I ideally go for balance but w/ less carbs
The marathon is something for wife and I to do together -- she's run a couple already --
but I need consistency in diet and exercise.

Although my treadmill isn't a Precor...I have a Precor stationary bike that is top notch...There
stuff is definitely good quality..
My treadmill is great for collecting dust and drying clothes...so, I can't really attest to its durability...but it looks good...LOL
