Folding Treadmill Review: The NordicTrack T9 Si
Most people are willing admit that they could do with more exercise. These same people, however, have any number of excuses to explain why they haven’t begun even a modest fitness programme. One of the most common excuses for not using treadmills, for example, it that there isn’t a place to set one up. Well, the limited space excuse is easy to counter: use a folding treadmill. This sort of machine has a deck that will fold into a perpendicular pose if not being employed, and generally has a device which stops it from just dropping down. Therefore, if you don’t have adequate space, keep reading to discover some information on an excellent treadmill made by NordicTrack, called the T9 Si model.
Folding Treadmill: Key Features of the NordicTrack T9 Si
The NordicTrack T9 Si has a powerful 2.25HP commercial-grade motor that generates plenty of power to drive the belt smoothly and quietly. Further, this machine has a trademarked cushioning system which aids in diminishing tension on the joints and bones. Its console is vivid and simple to read, and has one-touch buttons which regulate incline and speed quickly and expediently. We like the range of programmes on this folding treadmill, (20, and 16 are pre-programmed). To boot, it has 2 heart rate controlled (HRC) programmes together with 2 user-defined ones. With an HRC programme, the treadmill, by design, will change the incline and speed so that the exerciser’s heart rate will continue in the most favourable zone.
The pulse is measured by integrated handlebar sensors. The T9 Si can also be matched with Polar h ear rate telemetry technology. Finally, we’re glad that the T9 Si is iFit capable, meaning that it will accept an SD card that controls the treadmill whilst verbally prompting the user during the workout.

The T9 Si console contains a 4-window Solaris LED display which displays data regarding distance, incline, calories, speed, heart rate, and time. There’s also a handy cooling fan on the console, along with a port for connecting an iPod or other MP3 player. A high grade speaker system produces comprehensible sharp sound. Something that makes the T9 Si treadmill different is its express incline tuning system. The patent pending attribute regulates the incline from 0% to a tasking 10% at the simple touch of a button.
