SOLE Fitness releases a new guide comparing treadmills and ellipticals in terms of their suitability for individuals with joint problems seeking low-impact cardiovascular exercise.
-- SOLE Fitness has published a guide aimed at readers managing joint concerns, particularly those looking for cardiovascular exercise options that minimize knee discomfort.

The release comes as SOLE Fitness acknowledges the difficulties experienced by individuals with knee pain as they struggle to maintain cardiovascular fitness without exacerbating their condition. This is precisely why their primary need is low-impact equipment designed to reduce impact while delivering effective workouts, says the piece.
As such, SOLE Fitness has integrated specific technologies into its product line to address these challenges, with its treadmills focusing on shock absorption and customizable progression.
Its guide showcases how Cushion Flex Whisper Deck technology reduces impact by up to 40% compared to outdoor running surfaces - while programmable incline settings allow users to increase workout intensity without raising speed. In combination, these features can contribute to a walking environment that supports joint health while building strength over time.
And while treadmills can be adapted for joint-friendly use, the document points to ellipticals as offering an alternative approach built around continuous, gliding motion to eliminate impact entirely.
SOLE models like the E35, E95, and E98 feature an ergonomic pedal design developed in collaboration with a physical therapist, incorporating a two-degree inward slope to reduce stress on ankles and knees. Meanwhile, adjustable stride length and resistance settings enable users to tailor workouts to their natural gait and fitness level.
Yet, choosing between the two equipment types depends on individual fitness goals and the severity of joint sensitivity, stresses the guide. For those experiencing significant knee pain, ellipticals might offer the preferred solution due to their zero-impact design. But treadmills remain viable when used with proper technique - in other words, walking at moderate speeds, utilizing incline features, and progressing slowly.
SOLE Fitness adds that investing in quality home fitness equipment designed for joint protection represents a practical long-term health strategy, offering consistency and comfort without the need to commute to a gym. Moreover, its own models come with safety features such as emergency stop mechanisms and heart rate monitoring - all while meeting ASTM International F2115 standards for design and manufacturing.
