Due to time constraints i can't consistently go to the gym anymore so i'm buying a power rack, weights, bar, bench, 12kg pair chains, bands, gym flooring, kettlebells etc...
I'm not a big fan of using the Treadmill at the gym because i use my 30-45 mins to do weights, I have been running twice a week for the last 2 months and the weather in Tasmania really screws me over, i have gotten sick twice due to running in the rain etc ( yeah i know stupid ).
I don't want to spend $2k on a treadmill as my main focus is putting on muscle but i saw 2010 NEW TREADMILL,USA LEESON Motor,Foldable Treadmill (eBay item 280532477324 end time 07-Dec-10 22:00:08 AEDST) : Sport
$399 + $100 postage
I'd really want it for jogging/running is 13M/HR too slow?
This is not a essential item at the moment but i'd like to be able to run in winter when i want to, not be dictated by the weather
TLDR:
Is it worth purchasing a "cheap" treadmill?
is 13M/HR too slow?
What sort of maintenance does a treadmill require?
Life expectancy?
If it breaks how much does it cost to fix?
I'm 6"3 100kg is there a size difference in treadmills, will it be big enough?
I really want to spend under $800 on a treadmill if i buy one
