Life Fitness 9100HR Treadmill
They say that the old ones are the best and the same holds true to the classic treadmill
offered by Life Fitness – the Life Fitness 9100HR. The 9100HR is quite common in different commercial
establishments around the US. The 9100HR has a width of 31 inches, 45 inches tall, and is 80 inches long. It
weighs in at 380 pounds. It is a treadmill that is powered by a 2 horsepower motor. This 2 HP motor can power up
the treadmill to speeds of up to 10 miles per hour. It is made to support 350 pounds for users who would be
mainly walking. If you plan on running extensively on the 9100HR, you must be less than 300 pounds.
The Life Fitness 9100HR comes with the Flex Deck technology. Flex Deck is a shock
absorption system that is installed in the running deck of the treadmill. It is capable of reducing the shock that
goes to your joints and even knees when you are using the treadmill. The deck of the 9100HR comes with a total
surface area of 18 x 58 inches. While this comes in behind some of the treadmills offered with 20 x 60 inches
decks, the deck size of the 9100HR is more than enough for casual to serious walkers and runners. The belt is
installed on rollers that measure 2 1/2 inches.
One of the key features of the Life Fitness 9100HR why it is chosen by many for
their commercial establishment is the maintenance or the lack of it. The 9100HR comes with its very own automatic
self-waxing system. What it does is that the system lubricates the deck so as to diminish friction between the belt
and the deck. No need to do it manually, like in some other brands and products. And because it is done
automatically, the chances of forgetting to maintain the 9100HR is close to zero. You get a system that reduces the
effects of wear and tear.
Monitoring your heart rate is important when you are working out. The 9100HR comes
with a sensor that does exactly that. This sensor is found on the handle bar. All you need to do is hold on to the
handle bar with the sensor and your heart rate will be recorded. If holding on to the bar isn’t your cup of tea,
you might want to check out the Polar heart rate strap. This will free up your hand while you are doing your
exercises.
