The NordicTrack company became a household name when it brought cross-country skiing indoors. Since then, the company has expanded its home-exercise equipment line to include treadmills, bicycles, stair steppers and more. The Nordictrack C2000 treadmill is no longer being produced but can be bought used. It is a basic, sturdy treadmill for your at-home use.

Safety First

The Nordictrack C2000 treadmill comes with a safety key. The treadmill will not operate unless the key is plugged in to the console. The key is attached to a rope with a clip on the opposite end that you secure to your waistband. If you slip or fall and the key disconnects, the treadmill automatically stops. It also has a heart rate monitor on the console. You hold onto the metal rails with your hands and monitor your workout heart rate. If you want a minute-by-minute monitoring, you can order the optional chest strap for a consistent heart rate check.

You can create intervals, steady-state or threshold runs, where you exercise at top speeds. Another workout option is selecting one of the pre-set programs that automatically adjust the speed and incline. The treadmill stores up to three of your favorite manual programs for future use.
