Running is part of just about every sport from basketball, football, track & field, crossfit, triathlon, to gymnastics and tennis and Form is the building block for performance, endurance, and resilience. Form is, and always has been, our Focus. To TRUEFORM those words are not a slick marketing phrase picked up from our competitors along the way it is our raison d'etre - our reason for being. That focus is designed into our Runners through every phase of our engineering design, manufacturing, and testing at our training facility in Connecticut, USA.

Under traditional, machine-assisted acceleration, a runner tends to fall forward, perpetually trying to chase the belt, and running more "quad dominant" with less focus on the posterior. Not only does this lead to poor form, but through that an increased likelihood of injury. Even with some other curved non-motorized treadmills, a curve of 6.5 to 8 inches, allows the runner to move faster in an easier fashion since gravity is assisting with the movement downward once the foot plants.

All TRUEFORMs have an innovative very gentle curve of 2.5 inches from lowest part of curve to the highest point at the front and rear. With the TRUEFORM.RUNNER, you focus more on what's beneath your feet keeping you in better dynamic balance with less focus on trying to keep up with the belt.

While the curve may make you feel a little off-balance to start with, in just a few strides the Responsive Belt Technology® will force you to adopt (and importantly maintain) a proper posture - more representative of a natural running position than running on a flat or inclined flat belt motorized treadmill.

The shallower the curve the more neutral (and natural) your running form will be.

The more natural your running form, the faster you can sprint, the further you can run, and the more likely it is that you can stay injury free or recover from a prior injury.

The TRUEFORM RUNNER is overbuilt like a tank, and-crafted in Connecticut, USA, the iconic RUNNER is the bedrock of our collection and will take anything you throw at it up to 700 lbs walking, or 450 lbs running at top speed. The outer frame and covers are formed from a single sheet and hand-welded from 7 guage steel, with formed steel handrails and uprights.

The textured powder coat finish has a zinc plated undercoat and the frame with an industry-leading 20 year guarantee. Turned and tooled solid aluminum pulleys, polyurethane with steel radial belts, fiberglass reinforced nylon undertreads, and 106 sealed steel ball bearings complete this beast. The Runner comes with a standard tread of bonded Kraiburg® Thermolast Overmold Elastomer supplied by Smith & Wesson.

The simple, rugged, LED display, like the rest of the Runner, is practically maintenance-free, and built to last. Zero electrical consumption translates to significant savings for club owners.

The TRUEFORM TRAINER is also a non-motorized treadmill with a gently curved running surface and is a rugged, quality-built solution to any gym or sports facility. Just like it’s big brother, the Trainer is designed to be virtually maintenance-free and great for the environment - no electricity needed.

The Trainer a Get On and Go Workout. Simple and user-friendly for all ages and skill levels - and ideal for team events and relays. It offers a budget-conscious alternative to the USA hand-crafted Runner and its lighter weight and compact size make it easy to move and maneuver for indoor and outdoor competitive sporting events. Want to take your trainer up a mountain - no problem, we’ve done that!

Make no mistake, the TrueForm Trainer is still a workhorse of a treadmill, with its steel frame construction and heavy-duty, impact absorbing slatted running surface it can handle users up to 400 pounds running at top speed! When TrueForm first introduced running to the CrossFit community we were asked for a lighter-weight version of our Runner. Our engineers were up for the challenge and, together with our partners in South Korea, they value-engineered the Trainer. The Trainer features an inner frame of formed and welded 7 guage steel, and handrail uprights formed from 6” steel tubing. The molded polymer and thermoplastic elasstimer treads run on 112 sealed steel ball bearings. The LCD battery-operatred display can be paired with the Polar heart rate monitors.

The TRUEFORM RUNNER is the only Curved Non-Motorized Treadmill to offer customization with your choice of running surface, color, and design. With the TrueForm Runner you can train on sports-specific surfaces in shoes (elastomer, turf, or track), cleats (turf), spikes (track), or go barefoot (elastomer, turf, or our Naboso® Proprioceptive Surface). Why would you train or warm up on a surface that does not match your field of play? With the Runner you don’t have to compromise.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE IN FEEL? We encourage you to experience the TrueForm difference. We are confident that when you compare a TrueForm with any of our competitors side-by-side the difference will be obvious. Here we will describe the difference if feel between the Runner and the Trainer. With a slightly heavier feel than the Trainer, or any of our competitors, the TRUEFORM RUNNER forces you to run a little slower than you might on similar curved treadmills; focusing on time on the machine, not distance traveled. Running for time instead of distance is how the heart rate-based endurance community trains, and it is the difference between exercising for long-term health versus short-term fitness.

At the same speeds as outdoor running, training on the TrueForm is actually more work, since it results in more muscular recruitment, more CO2 production, more lactate producing, and is more metabolically and aerobically taxing. Studies demonstrate that this increased performance continues when you get off the treadmill and run on the road or your field of play. For more fat burning effects, it is recommended to run long and slow and you will use up to 40% more calories using a RUNNER than any motorized treadmill, and approximately 10% more than on the Trainer.

At the same time, runners will feel less impact stress (g-force stress) than running on a motorized treadmill or outdoors. The runner is required to be in balance at all times, leading to constant core recruitment. Training on the TrueForm Runner results in less stress, more effort, moving better in balance, and moving under proper positioned load to support your own bodyweight. Run strong and stay injury free!

With the same gentle curve of 2.5 inches from the lowest part of the curve to the highest point near the front and rear, THE TRAINER, like it’s big brother the Runner, features the most gentle curve on the market and the proprietary Responsive Belt Technology® reacts to every subtly in your movement – balance, posture, hip position, foot strike and more – creating a more natural treadmill running surface and experience than other motorized or non-motorized treadmills. THE TRAINER'S belt responds to your pace, allowing you to go from a walk to a jog, to a sprint, to a stop – instantly. You will immediately feel when your body is not in the optimal position for running or walking. The runner has to be in balance at all times, improving core strength. Although you will feel the difference immediately, both on and off the Trainer, long term use of TRUEFORM TREADMILLS will promote better movement patterns improving overall health and wellness.

Running on THE TRAINER results in less stress, more effort, a 33% higher calorie-burn than motorized treadmills, more balanced movement, and running under properly positioned load to support your own bodyweight, all while reducing the risk of running injury. Run strong and stay injury free!

Since you do not need to propel your body, traditional treadmills don't activate your entire leg. A CNMT forces your legs to propel themselves from the first stride. You do not "follow" the speed you create it. As a result, there is no top speed, a CNMT will go as fast as you want it to go.
 
You determine your acceleration and deceleration pace and distance, not the way in which the motor is calibrated. No more setting a single speed on the machine and forcing your feet to keep pace. If you feel like sprinting, you don’t need to push buttons and wait for the motor to speed up, simply run faster. If you want to slow down, slow down. That’s the beauty of a self-propelled treadmill.

They’re safer to use. Since there are no automatically moving parts, there’s no risk of the belt moving too quickly, causing you to slip off. With a CMT, the belt only moves when you move it.

Yes - you can run barefoot on any of our treadmills. The Kreiburg Rubber surface on both the Runner and the Trainer is more forgiving than the road.

If you are considering a TrueForm Runner, the Naboso® surface is a proprioceptive (also known as kinesthesic) for barefoot running only.

The TrueForm Runner is the ONLY treadmill to offer a variety of running surfaces including synthetic turf and blue or red track.

You can run in shoes or cleats on the turf surface, and shoes or spikes on the track.

Because your TrueForm doesn't require a power source it can be set up anywhere, not just near an electrical outlet.

Yes, you can. Full instructions are included with every Treadmill. We recently had a message from someone who described themselves as a "60-year-old woman" who described how easy it was to assemble her TrueForm and she had just completed her first two-mile run.
