January is the most optimistic month of the year. This is the time when we all evaluate ways that we could become better versions of ourselves than we were the year before. Many new year’s resolutions are centered around our health. Gym memberships soar and treadmills are packed with people making new commitments to themselves to shed that extra weight or to be more active for their general health and longevity.
Joining a gym may be the perfect option for some. I personally love the gym. But my work life is often not flexible enough for me to squeeze in a gym workout as consistently as I would like. I can have the greatest intentions but if I don’t make working out fit into my daily life in a convenient and easy way, I am setting myself up for failure. I have found that having options for myself in the home leaves me very little room to make excuses. But like many, I do not have the space for a full on home gym and many in-home equipment options come at a price tag of several thousand dollars. Luckily I found the perfect solution to help me reach my goals, the Walking Pad.
The Walking Pad is a treadmill unlike any other. I have seen many treadmills that advertise themselves as space saving but in reality all they do stand up vertically, taking up the exact same amount of space in a different direction. I don’t want a bulky treadmill propped up against the wall and I don’t have furniture that a full length treadmill would fit under. The Walking Pad design is unique in that it actually folds into roughly a 2.5″ x 3.5″ rectangle and it has wheels and a handle so you can easily roll it to your preferred storage area.
When I first started looking at this product I had a lot of reservations. I thought that folding the tread in half would compromise the structural integrity of it. After reading the reviews I decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised by how sturdy this machine actually is. It doesn’t wobble, dip, or creak like I imagined it would. It is an incredibly smooth walk and even stands up to running. I give this treadmill a 10/10 on both quality and smart design.
This treadmill is equipped with a place for your phone or tablet, a remote control, and an app that you can use to track your workouts. There are a few versions of this product and they have different max speeds. I am a fast walk/light jog type of person. The R2 and the X21 are the fastest models and are perfect for a speedier pace. They also have under desk treadmills if you just want to walk a little while you work from home.
My Walking Pad shipped quickly, was packaged well, and was extremely easy to set up. I did it myself in about 5 minutes. I have been using the Walking Pad now for a few months and couldn’t be happier with it. It is definitely helping me reach my daily movement goals and all from the comfort of my living room.
