Question: I used a treadmill that allowed me to place my incline level minus zero..in this case -3. It allowed me to jog until I got in shape to go the other direction and increase the incline. Can you recommend the latest treadmills that support decline?

– All of the incline trainers from NordicTrack, including the X7i(Discontinued), x9i(Discontinued), x11i, X22i and the new top of the line X32i. (-3% to -6%)
– All of the Commercial Series from NordicTrack, including the best-selling 1750, 2450 and 2950. (- 3% to -6%)
– The Sole TT8 Treadmill, as well as the newer Sole TT9. (-6%)
– Many treadmills from ProForm, including the Pro 2000, the Pro 5000 and the top of the line Pro 9000. (-3%)
Here are some of the more expensive treadmills with decline…

Best treadmills with decline by price.
Hey Leanne,
The NordicTrack incline trainers are going to be your best options for decline in the mid-price range. The Precor, TRUE and Freemotion will be a little pricier. Only the NordicTrack and Boston Marathon Series from ProForm give you up to 6%, although the ProForms are also expensive.
Hope this helps!
I have nordic track commercial 4000. It does give the decline but limit maximum speed for it, e.g. you’re not allowed to run faster then 13 km per hour with decline -3. Is their any treadmills with decline being not limited with speed?
