The HUR Treadmill has a number of features which makes it well suited for older populations where safety is rightly the primary concern.
- ‘Zero’ starting speed of 0.16 km/h and increments of 0.1 km/h means a smooth and gentle speed progression to minimise balance issues.
- The low step-up height of just 14cm is especially relevant to older populations where tripping becomes a greater issue.
- Full length parallel handrails are an essential feature where reduced balance and/or cognition is of concern.
- The orthopaedic suspension system allows for a more comfortable workout, especially for those with existing knee or hip pain and it reduces the likelihood of injuries caused by repetitive impact.
- Hand-held Remote Stop-Start Switch to avoid having to stretch forward, again reducing the risk of imbalance.
- Reversing belt for improved balance, coordination and cognition as well as improved knee stability and reduced pain, especially for those with knee osteoarthritis, due to strengthening of the muscles around the knees, particularly the quadriceps.
- Using the incline function of up to 15% is beneficial for increased calorie burn, improved muscle building, including enhanced core activation for lower back and abs improvements and for increasing bone density, especially beneficial for older populations.
