Question from Mas
Hi...saya nak beli treadmill tapi tak tahu yang mana yang sesuai untuk kegunaan di rumah..pls kevin help me..target utama untuk fat burner dan cardio.

Answer:

Thanks for the question, Mas. Honestly, I would NOT recommend you to purchase a treadmill unless:

1. You have a budget us RM5,000 ke atas.
2. RM5,000 is not really that much money for you.
3. You have ample space where “the underutilized” treadmill will stay.

Why? The reality is that the idea of bersenam di rumah memang bagus tapi in most cases, keadaan rumah is not a condusive place to exercise (too many distractions). In most cases, treadmill tersebut tak digunakan seperti yang diharapkan, mengambil ruang dan jadi tempat sidai baju. 

In most cases, treadmill tersebut tak digunakan seperti yang diharapkan, mengambil ruang dan jadi tempat sidai baju. 

So kalau saya jadi anda, dari melabur wang yang banyak untuk peralatan gym rumah yang besar, lebih baik beli kasut running baru, jam tangan HRM atau peralatan home gym yang kecil (core balls, dumbbells) yang mudah untuk disimpan dan tidak mengambil ruang yang besar dan tidak kacau pemandangan mata 🙂

Bonus: Here for some practical buying tips

1. Make sure you have enough space kat rumah so that tak menyusahkan nanti.
2. Don’t go for the cheapest and don’t go for the paling mahal…choose the one that you are most comfortable with.
3. Make sure you get a motorized treadmill. Jangan2 the ones where you need to drive it pulak.
4. Brandwise, go for reputrable brands that are known for reliability and endurance. 
5. Before buying, Cuba test and run on the treadmill terlebih dahulu.
6. Saiz ukuran: Carilah yang panjang 115 cm dan 40 cm lebar.
7. Optional things to look out for: side railing, computerized programs, heart rate monitor, downloadable tracks/programs, MP3 dan lain2.

I really do hope this helps. Let me know what you decided. The choice is always yours.
