As above, in the short description, we cannot fault the Life Fitness Platinum Club Series Treadmill. We have the commercial Elevation alongside the top-of-the-range Technogym - both brilliant, albeit expensive treadmills. Personally, I'd only trust the Technogym or Life Fitness treadmills in our facility, as they are the best. Perhaps the biggest credit to the Life Fitness Treadmills is that our semi-pro and pro distance athletes favour the Life Fitness Treadmills; Even for the ultra attempts, the Life Fitness Treadmills have been the preference. As a former bodybuilder who simply runs casually, I can't tell the difference, but there you go :D.

Here's what Life Fitness have to say:
