"I immediately felt that natural running feel with a relaxed gait. I almost didn’t realize it was not motorized. It also was quiet like a run through the woods. It's a natural workout that can actually improve gait mechanics, and even be therapeutic." - Dr. Phil Maffatone.

"The TrueForm Runner is arguably the best self-propelling treadmill on the market. ... you burn more calories by working to propel it... 44 percent more calories compared to motorized treadmills. [They] are also less stressful on joints, reducing your risk of injury."

“It forces you to run with good posture. It’s responsive to changes in your position and allows you to accelerate quickly. The realistic running surface will last far longer than a typical treadmill."

"I am now a firm believer in the power of the TrueForm curved manual treadmill to help improve my form while using less electricity (hello, eco-friendly!) and giving me that interactive at-home workout experience I’ve craved."

The TrueForm Runner is a manual treadmill with a slightly gentler curve than comparable curved treads so it is easy to run on and provides a comfortable feel underfoot which helps support proper running form. The TrueForm Runner comes with several unique customization options that make it a great manual treadmill for home gyms and commercial spaces as well.

Although the TrueForm Runner is built to take a beating, its unique shape is actually incredibly well thought out. Rather than being flat, the curved design is there to help improve your running form by forcing you to go from heel striking to a mid-foot strike (which is a much better way to run.)
