Pros of the TITAN Under desk walking treadmill

The pros of the TITAN Under desk treadmill:

Low price
Small footprint

If you want to self build a treadmill desk, you can do this fairly cheap by ordering from TITAN. Combine the under desk treadmill with the A2 single motor sit to stand desk and you have a treadmill desk for under $1000. It won't be the prettiest, fanciest, and have the most features, but it will do the deed for under $1000.

Cons of the TITAN Under desk walking treadmill

The cons of the TITAN under desk treadmill are:

Not for running
Can not fold
Minimal computer unit

The TITAN under desk treadmill is not ideal for running fast. As with most under desk treadmills, they are designed for a very slow walking pace and will not take a prolonged heavy pounding. Especially if you are a big athlete you should be careful.

Compared to other under desk treadmill models the TITAN version can not fold up. If your desk setup should be permanently able to have a treadmill setup that is fine. If you want to change around often you might want to look for a foldable option instead.

The computer of the under desk treadmill is pretty simple and does not incorporate any kind of extras. All it does is that it shows your the steps, calories, or distance you have done. A bonus is that you can place it on the desk so that you do not need a remote or bend under the desk to make adjustments.

Alternatives to the TITAN Under desk walking treadmill

Alternatives to the TITAN under the desk treadmill:

If you are looking for a treadmill the TrueFrom runner is the current king of the court. This self-propelled treadmill has a reputation for the best belt in the business when it comes to self-propelled machines. If you want to accelerate and decelerate fast, this is the right treadmill to simulate a game environment without taking up too much space. While it is the creme de la creme in functionality, the price is astronomical and close to $6000. You can build an entire gym with that or deck your entire team with TITAN under the desk treadmills instead.

The Rogue Echo bike is in my opinion the best choice for a home gym that is focused on performance. For long runs, you can go outside and get your running shoes on. For interval training and burning as many calories as possible in a short amount of time, there is no match for air bikes. Air bikes can accelerate and decelerate fast without costing a fortune. Technically the Jacobs ladder and the Versaclimber burn more calories per minute but they cost more and take up more space. Other Air bikes in the market are usually more than $1000 except the TITAN fan bike which takes a low-budget clone approach to the Echo bike.

The Nordictrack 32i is the flagship treadmill from Nordictrack. This beast has all the bells and whistles including a massive screen as well as incline and decline settings for running. If you want the full running experience and be entertained at the same time, this is the machine to get.IN return you have to give up a considerable share of your living space and wallet share.

Conclusion for the TITAN Under desk walking treadmill

If you do not mind putting your hands and mind into a project you can build a cheap desk treadmill using the TITAN under desk treadmill as the belt. You could also get it as a cheap walker to get more steps in without having to go outside and watch the television. Apart from that, there are better options for a similar price out there, if you take your running and cardio seriously.

Overview and review of the TITAN power weighted sled with leash and harness

This is an overview of the TITAN power weighted sled with leash and harness 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 Power weighted sled with leash and harness

The TITAN power weighted sled with a leash and harness is one of the cheapest and smallest sleds you can get from TITAN. The best feature about this sled is the loading pin which can be flipped down. This makes the sled an item you can take anywhere without too much hassle. The full specifications of this sled are:

- Use with Olympic plates

- Includes leash/harness

- Use on grass, carpet, or concrete

- Little assembly required

- Max capacity: 500 lb

- Powder Coated finish

- Weight: 37 LBS

- Width: 16"

- Length: 24"

- Leash / harness length: 10 ft.

There is little you can do wring with this sled, especially if you only use small weights and focus on acceleration from a starting stance.

Pros of the TITAN Power weighted sled with leash and harness

The pros of this sled are:

Ready to use package
Price
collapsible pin

With this package, you get everything you need to get going once it arrives at your doorstep, as long as you have some plates. This saves you the hassle and money to look for a harness and leash which match and can be hooked to the sled.

The price of this sled is minimal and therefore can turn it into an item to not put too much thought into for someone who serious about their own gym or training a team. Get it, use, test it, break it, or abandon it. You will not cry too many tears about an $80 purchase for your fitness.

The very special nice touch about this sled is that you can put down the loading pin. With this, you can easily transport it in a car or a truck to use it on a nearby hill.

Cons of the TITAN Power weighted sled with leash and harness

The cons of the TITAN weighted sled with a leash and harness are:

Small maximum load
Can topple over
No attachments
Direct contact with the ground

This sled is rather small and will therefore not take a lot of weight. You only have one loading pin where other models in the market have up to four depending on what you are willing to invest.

The loading pin for this model is a little too high for the base which means that it can topple over easier than other sleds when you do not pull it in a straight line. If you load it heavily this won't be an issue, but for light sprinting loads this can get annoying.

This sled will not take any extra attachments unless you weld them on.

This sled operates with direct contact to the ground with no plastic buffer in between. If you use it on rock or concrete it will suffer and ultimately break and you have to replace the entire unit, rather than just the plastic feet. You can fix this with a bit of DIY or just replace it as this is not the end of the world.

Alternatives to the TITAN Power weighted sled with leash and harness

Alternatives to the TITAN power weighted sled with leash and harness are:

The TITAN pro sled system gives you a stable sled with plastic feet and the option to use multiple attachments. This is the right sled for the home gym owner who wants to take it seriously but not spent the money on Rogue Fitness equipment. It can have some minor issues with the finish on delivery as with most TiTAN products, but that will not be an issue if you are willing to put some elbow grease in. For professional athletes, I would recommend the Rogue Dogsled 1.2 instead.

The low bar push pull drag sled is slightly more expensive than the weighted sled. the two big advantages are that it can be used bi-directionally and has low handles to also push and pull the sled without a harness.

The TITAN heavy-duty sled is the right choice for strongmen and big linemen who want to save money and train with heavy loads at their home. In a professional setting, I would recommend the Rogue butcher as an alternative for this purpose. This sled is hard to transport and store.

The XPO trainer 2 is the high-end solution for sleds. If you can afford and store it is the best sled to be used in a suburban area to just push it around the pavement or local street. The resistance increases the harder you push it which makes it great for interval training. It is not great for lineman or strongman training as the initial resistance is very easy to overcome which defeats the point for this type of training.

The Rogue Dogsled 1.2 has a lot of different attachments and will stay stable in use as it has multiple plastic feet. It is bigger than the TITAN weighted sled and can therefore take more plates without the risk of falling over. It will be harder to store in a car or truck, as the loading pin con not be folded down and the overall construction is bigger.

The Rogue Echo sled is the low-cost option of the dogsled 1.2. It will not have as many attachments available to you as the dogsled 1.2 and in return cost less. Compared to the power weighted sled with a leash and harness, the Rogue echo sled is bigger, more expensive, and harder to transport. In return, you can haul bigger loads and use it easier in both directions.

Conclusion for the TITAN Power weighted sled with leash and harness

The power weighted sled with a leash and harness is the small little companion you can take everywhere with you. It does not cost a lot and is compact. There is not really a lot you can do wrong here if you only want to do haul some extra weight somewhere outdoors. For the serious athlete that uses the sled in a gym environment or on a pitch the TITAN Pro Sled, Rogue Dogsled 1.2, or Rogue Echo Sled might be a better option, given the budget allows for it.
