A mid-range tablet can only be a good option when it combines durability with some good add-ons. You cannot expect everything that a high-end treadmill offers at a lower price, so your expectations need to be realistic. Luckily, the ProForm Carbon T10 lives up to those expectations quite well. As it is part of the Carbon series, the treadmill includes a touchscreen, iFIT compatibility and is foldable.
The Workout Experience
The ProForm Carbon T10 has a deck that measures 55-inches long and 20-inch wide. While the width is decent, the length might be a problem for taller people with longer strides. They may face difficulty in running. The 3.0 CHP motor is powerful enough to support running and there are different speed and incline options that you can explore, which is aimed at making the treadmill more commercial. While there are no free preset programs offered on the treadmill, the iFIT subscription enables you to have a lot of fun on the machine.
Footprint and Portability
The T10 weighs about 223 pounds, which means it is not exactly light. But, the folding mechanism includes a gas shock, which makes it easy to fold and unfold. This reduces the risk of any accidents when you are folding the machine. There is also a set of wheels and this makes it easier to move the treadmill around. The overall footprint of the machine is average, but thanks to its foldability, it is a good choice for people who are looking for compact equipment.
The Ergonomics
There is special cushioning to be found on the ProForm Carbon T10, which makes walking and running very comfortable, especially for someone who has knee or joint issues. There are also some extras that ProForm has added, which include an XL cooling fan, dual bottle holders and a speaker bar.
Technology
This treadmill is technologically inclined and this is evident from the touchscreen it offers. The 10-inch screen on the ProForm Carbon T10 offers good graphics. The inner handlebars also come with heart rate sensors and this can be useful for tracking your exertion. If you do not want to follow a guided workout, you can use the manual mode.
The iFIT compatibility is one of the biggest draws of the treadmill, as it lets you access tons of content related to jogging, running and walking to be used with the Carbon T10. It comes with ‘Live Trainer Control’ feature, which means the speed and incline is adjusted according to the class you are taking.
