The Proform 505 CST Treadmill Machine

By Steve Zones


The Proform 505 CST Running machine is a highly developed electronic running machine that has a variety of options. You'd be shocked exactly what it can do. This device is great for individuals who are slightly overweight, having the ability to hold up to 300lbs although we really do not advise anyone over that wait to walk or run on it. This machine is exceedingly steady, even if you're running at the maximum speed possible.

The best part of all is that the Proform 505 will not shake like a plastic treadmill would. If you put your water bottle in the cup holder, you rarely see any vibration from running. Furthermore, it is quiet compared to other treadmills while not the most quiet on the market. Nevertheless, you will be able to hear your own music or the TV and not have to concern yourself with the noise.

One disadvantage of this running machine would be that the unit doesn't come with the iFit module. This will cost you another $130 to purchase. The service is free and after your trial you'll pay about $7 a month or that just out to just $80 a year. You can plug in your ipod device or iPhone and playback is fantastic. A small problem is that the sound system is extremely small but what do you expect for a work out machine? One more issue with this particular treadmill is that the unit which holds the water bottle is formed like a cube and not very deep. In case you have a 24 oz. water container it might not fit correctly but nonetheless, it will never fallout. We advise using more compact water containers to make up for this.

The pros of this machine certainly outweigh any cons we've talked about and this is why we believe it is beneficial to buy this wonderful exercise piece. It is possible to track up to two people on the Proform 505 CST Treadmill which is way over what every other treadmill can provide. Added to that, your progress that it records can be posted straight away to Facebook. Speak about advancing in technology! Additionally, it features its own remote with many possibilities on it. You'll be able to keep track of all your measurements and calorie intake as well.

This is a great treadmill for people who are beginning to run or someone already who has started running for at least a month. Now, if you are someone who has progressed to an advanced runner, we suggest looking for another treadmill that will be more powerful. Otherwise, if you just want to take it slow and increase your speed each day, this will be the best machine for you. You can take turns on different days with your partner when using this machine and it will remember certain information from the both of you. There is no need to worry about the information getting mixed up either. So many people have given this treadmill 4.5 star rating, making it one of the best entry level treadmills out there today.
