Overview Nordictrack Commercial 1750 Treadmill $1799 - $2299

The Nordictrack 1750 treadmill is the bread and butter machine from Nordictrack. The features are well balanced and you can get it for a solid price which is not outrageous. This would be my recommendation for any weekend warrior or athlete who does not see running as a core discipline, but as a support to bring up their cardiovascular system. It goes up to a capacity of 300 lbs, provides a 3.75 Chp motor and -3 to 15% incline. This has everything you need at a reasonable price, as long as you don't want to go bonkers.

Pros of the Nordictrack 1750 treadmill

Well balanced
Ticks all the boxes
Reasonably priced

The 1750 Nordictrack is a best seller for a reason. It ticks all the boxes for a stable, reliable treadmill at a good price tag without being too fancy.

Cons of the Nordictrack 1750 treadmill

Cons of the 1750 treadmill are:

No massive screen
No massive Incline
No Heart-rate monitor included

If you buy the Volkswagen Golf from Nordictrack you can not expect it to be a Jeep or Ferrari. It does not come with a massive flashy 32inch screen or a challenging 40% incline. To be honest these are features that you do not need for a good treadmill run. Still, this is not the machine to show off with to your friends if you are filthy rich. If that is the game you are playing, get the 32i.

Alternatives to the Nordictrack 1750 treadmill

Alternatives to the 1750 treadmill are:

If space is one of your main concerns and you can therefore not fit a 1750 into your home or you want to optimize your gym floor, the T 6.5 might be a better alternative. This treadmill is not as wide and also shorter and therefore saves space in your home.

If your main goal is to burn calories as fast as possible you might want to consider the Rogue Echo bike as an alternative to the Nordictrack 1750. You will save almost $1000 and a lot of space while burning more calories per minute. Especially the Tabata intervals on the Rogue Echo bike will kick your backside.

The true form runner is a different concept of the treadmill which is self-propelled rather than driven by a motor. It is more expensive than the 1750 but better suited for athletes who want to do sprints and practice sudden braking and acceleration on a treadmill.

Overview and review of the TITAN heavy duty push pull weight sled

This is an overview of the TITAN heavy duty push pull weight sled including pros, cons, and alternatives. This article was originally published in Which cardio equipment to get from TITAN. Follow the links for more details.

Overview of the TITAN Heavy Duty High Low push Pull weight sled

The heavy-duty High low Push-pull weight sled from TITAN is a clone of the Rogue butcher sled. This sled has two load pins and is built for heavy loads to be pushed around. This sled has a considerable size and is, therefore, harder to store than a dog sled. This is the right choice when you want to make big burly Rugby players and NFL players move seemingly immovable objects. The full specifications are:

- Heavy Duty 11 gauge steel

- Dual Plate Horns at 10" High

- High/Low push/pull handles with strap hook

- Black Powder Coated frame

- Breaks down easily for Quick transport or storage

- 600 lb plus Capacity

- Post spacing: 26-in.

- Dimensions: 46-in (L) x 30.5-in (W) x 36-in (H).

- Sled Skis: 8-in x 5-in x 8mm thick

- Weight: 64 lb.

This is a big boy toy and needs space. Do not consider it when you can not exercise outdoors or have considerable space indoors.

Pros of the TITAN Heavy Duty High Low push Pull weight sled

The pros of the TITAN Heavy Duty High Low push-pull weight sled are:

Price
Size

This sled is all about moving as much weight on a sled as possible without paying big bucks for it. If that is the kind of thing you need, you found your companion in the TITAN Heavy Duty High Low push-pull weight sled.

Cons of the TITAN Heavy Duty High Low push Pull weight sled

The cons of the TITAN Heavy Duty High Low push-pull set are:

Size
TITAN finish

While the size is great if you are looking for a big sled it can become a problem when you do not have the space to store the sled. Especially in a home gym, it can just get in the way as you will not use it as often as other equipment and can not just lean it against a wall like a dog sled to store it away.

As TITAN offers some of the cheapest equipment around that also comes with its perils. There is a higher possibility, that you have to force some of the parts as they do not fit snug. This can be fixed when you are a good handyman, but can also become so extreme, that you might question why you bought something new from TITAN rather than used from a different brand.

Alternatives to the TITAN Heavy Duty High Low push Pull weight sled

If you run a respectable home gym and want to add a sled, the TITAN Pro sled might be a better choice from TITAN. If your goal is to add some resistance to your sprints and push a bit of weight around, the TITAN Pro Sled is more than enough in capacity and offers more versatility while taking up less space.

The low bar push pull drag sled from Rogue is a simple $100sled that comes with everything you need. It is simple and can be used with a harness or at the handle. A very cheap way of getting fit and not to be sneered at, especially if you only use low loads and find the Pro Sled too expensive and the Heavy Duty sled too big.

The power bar weighted sled with leash and harness is the ideal sled to keep in the back of your truck or car. If you like to take a sled outside to your favorite hill, this is the one to get. The plate pin can be collapsed so that it can be easily stored in tight spots. For the price of roughly $80, you can even consider getting more than one and just wreck them. The only downside is that this sled has a lower plate capacity and the metal drags directly on the ground.

Conclusion for the TITAN Heavy Duty High Low push Pull weight sled

The heavy Duty high low push-pull sled from TITAN is a good choice if you want to save money, have space to run and store it, and just occasionally do heavy loads on it. If you have a team of players that will abuse this sled around the clock you might want to upgrade to the Rogue butcher as it will last longer.
