This high-capacity treadmill has a 300-pound weight limit with a 20” x 50” belt that gives you plenty of space for walking or running. The 5” interactive screen allows you to participate with preset or live-streaming trainers. Or you can use the one-touch controls to easily set your routine in speeds up to 10 mph and a 10% incline.

FAQ

We've researched and answered some common questions that arise when consumers are shopping for treadmills.

Can you use the NordicTrack T Series treadmill without registering with iFit?

Yes, registering to activate your new NordicTrack is not necessary. To bypass registration when turning on your treadmill for the first time, simply press the iFit logo on the panel for 30 seconds. Though iFit allows you to access thousands of workout programs and interact with live trainers, the treadmill comes equipped with a library of built-in workouts, or you can use the manual settings to control your own.

Is the NordicTrack T Series good for walking? 

Solid construction makes this treadmill perform well for walking or running. It has a SMART-response motor that can handle all types of fitness training, a sturdy belt, and adjustable deck cushioning for a comfortable walking experience.

The included iFit program takes the monotony out of walking on a treadmill. It provides enough challenge and a change of scenery to keep you from getting bored and losing motivation.


How loud is the treadmill when in use?

This NordicTrack treadmill has a moderately quiet operation volume. While running will be louder than walking, it is quiet enough to carry on a conversation at a normal level, either in person or on the phone. However, users report that you may have to turn up the television to hear it while running.

If you enjoy listening to music or other audio while working out, this treadmill has built-in speakers that you can connect to via Bluetooth or AUX.

Final Thoughts

The NordicTrack 5.6 S is an excellent choice for a home treadmill because it folds up for a minimal footprint and is built solidly. The advanced control panel allows you to adjust the speed, incline, and resistance and choose from preset workouts to diversify your routine. It’s compatible with iFit, which opens up endless workout possibilities.
