A key factor for any product's user accessibility is its interface. During the development of our new consoles we focused on the simple principle of ensuring relevant workout information is easily accessible.
A quick button press allows the user to begin a walk, run, or one of the specialized workouts and some models allow the user to develop their own programs. Our large, easy-to-read consoles give constant feedback from calories to distance to time, while some models offer separate displays for heart rate and muscle activation.

Muscle Activation Profile

It’s important to understand which muscle groups are gaining the most benefit during your workout. On our treadmills users are able to engage their glute (bottom), hamstring (back of thigh), quad (thigh), calf, pec, and arm muscles. The LED lights indicating muscle activation activate during three degrees of engagement: green represents minimal involvement; amber medium involvement, and red is full or heavy involvement. This quick reference allows users to challenge themselves during a workout.

Spirit Treadmill Reviews

Spirit treadmills aren’t going to be the treadmills that set the world on fire, but they are an excellent value for the money. These are the kind of machines that define the words “durable” and “reliable.” For the mid-level price point, they’re in the top several brands, but they probably wouldn’t crack the top three. Spirit models just don’t have enough outstanding features to give them any distinction to set them apart.

Plain Janes that Get the Job Done

Spirit treadmills used to be known for being durable but ugly, but they’ve been working on changing that image. When the huge conglomerate Dyaco purchased the company, they invested considerable funds in updating the look and feel of the treadmills. It’s pretty apparent that they’ve improved in this area, but they’re still not sleek or stylish.

What these treadmills do give you is reliability that lasts for years. Most Spirit models have a lifetime frame and motor warranty with 1-3 year coverage on the deck and parts. Customer service is generally responsive enough, although a bit slow at times. Because the parts come from overseas, you can expect a bit of a wait if you do need them.

The current model lineup consists of the XT185, XT285, XT385, XT485 and XT685, ranging in price from $1399 to $2399.

Even a devoted fitness enthusiast or marathon trainer will get their money’s worth in the performance department from Spirit.

These babies take a pounding without wearing down, over-heating or dragging. Part of the credit goes to the design – all Spirit treadmills are made with good components, in fact the quality has improved since Dyaco has taken over the company.

Consider What You Want

If you’re a style maven, the Spirit brand may not be for you. We’ve never rated style as one of the important deciding factors when choosing a treadmill, so it’s not a sticking point for us.

The consoles provide all the necessary information and the pricier Spirit models include features such as heart rate monitors. Spirit machines don’t include bells and whistles, but we’ve reviewed some other treadmill brands with lots of extras that we weren’t as impressed with because they tended to wear out in a few years.

These treadmills won’t; they’ll last for years and give you the solid, comfortable performance that you want if you need a quality workout that won’t let you down.

We look for Dyaco to continue improving the look and feel of Spirit treadmills to make them more attractive in a competitive market. Until then, we still like them for rock-solid performance and stability.
