The Motor
This model comes with a powerful self-cooling 2.25 CHP Mach Z™ Motor. The commercial Grade Mach Z Motor is the same motor that is used in the standard treadmills that you find at gyms and health clubs. It employs an axial fan to reduce noise as it cools internal components to enhance your workout experience and extend the life of the motor. An impressive 25 year warranty on the motor is a testament to it’s durability and quality.
Speed And Incline
The speed and incline are easily controlled with the touch of a button on the console. With a top speed of 10 mph and incline of up to 10% the Proform 590T offers a challenging workout for casual walkers and the more serious of trainers alike. With the Quick Incline™feature you can go directly to any incline you like effortlessly without having to scroll your way through the menu as you’re trying to run. The same great feature is available for speed as well with the QuickSpeed™ option allowing you to instantly change the speed of the treadmill between 0-10 MPH with the single touch of a button.
The Deck
The Proform 590T comes with a wide 20”x55” running treadbelt which we found to have a very stable and nicely cushioned running deck. Proform use a ProTech™ Cushioning system to reduce the amount of jarring and strain that running put on muscles and joints. This patented system is able to reduce the amount of impact by 15% which enables users to run and workout for longer periods and cover more meters without enduring the intense strains that normal running on hard surfaces brings. This is one compelling reason to use a treadmill to help protect your joints, lower back and knees and especially suited for people who may be of heavier build. The ProForm 590T is said to enable safe use for individuals of up to 300 lbs however it should be noted that a more mindful approach be taken and users of up to 220 lbs would be a more appropriate weight for this model.
The Technology
As with other ProForm machines the 590T treadmill incorporates iFit® Workout Card Technology . This enables users to loose weight, feel great and enjoy consistent health gains over the 8 week professionally guided workout programs. Each card plugs directly into the machine, automatically adjusting your speed and incline as necessary while your personal trainer motivates you throughout the workout to rapidly enhance your performance. The cards simply plug directly into the console and come designed by certified personal trainers with different focus areas such as weight loss, performance, endurance and numerous others.
The Programs
This model features 12 Quick Calorie-Burn workouts and a manual option allowing users to easily adjust settings to meet personal workout requirements. The 12 workout options allow users to choose how many calories they want to burn within a range of 200 to 700 calories. Select the desired amount and the treadmill automatically adjusts speed, incline and workout time to meet your targets. These are all easily accessed with one touch sensibility on the attractive console. Maximize every workout by monitoring your heart rate with the Dual-Grip EKG™ Heart Rate Monitoring system. Sensors built into the handlebars of the console provide accurate readings to ensure you are always within the right ranges to meet your training goals and burn more calories.
The Console
The ProForm 590T treadmill comes with an attractive light blue backlit LCD main display that tracks speed, time, distance, calories burned and pulse. The large 100 x 160 display features high-resolution graphics for clear, animated and easy to read workout stats. The iFit cards neatly plug directly into the center of the console and the iPod compatible music port allows you to enjoy all your favourite tunes directly through the quality Intermix Acoustics 2.0 system speakers that are built in either side of the center LCD display screen.
