Incline Underwater Treadmill - Personal Aquatic Treadmill

The INCLINE Aquatic Underwater Treadmill by Aquabilt enhances the high-resistance and low-impact benefits of aqua exercise therapy.

Every time you take a step, you put three to seven times the weight of your body on your joints. Take that same step in water, and the natural buoyancy of H2O gently lifts the pressure off your joints, while still allowing you to work your muscles. People with arthritis and other physical limiting conditions are increasingly turning to aquatic therapy for arthritis pain relief and conditioning.

We have done our research regarding aquatic equipment, and Incline represents the highest quality, beautifully engineered treadmills in this moderate price range.

The INCLINE Aquatic Underwater Treadmill by Aquabilt enables smooth, self-powered motion just as a traditional treadmill but under water.

This powerful water exercise machine provides double-sided two levels of resistance:

Rolling wheels provide easier movement for lower resistance workout, optimum for Arthritis pain relief, rehab and therapy.
Flat platform side provides higher resistance for slower, more intense workout. (avail on all models)

The INCLINE Aquatic Underwater Treadmill is available in two different models:

The PAT 201 model provides an outstanding workout that is easy to use, ideal for home pool use. Weighs only 72 lbs.
The PAT 302 model is equipped with a Rotor Resistance component, (similar in concept to a flywheel) ,which enhances belt movement, ideal for athletic training, health care facilities and injury rehab. It has been recognized as a wonderful secret weapon for training professional athletes. It offers a very unique, full resistance workout for vigorous, yet low-impact workouts. Weighs only 75 lbs.

The INCLINE Aquatic Underwater Treadmill comes with the following features:

Double Sided Platform
The PAT 201 Series unit roller side up for higher speed training, or platform side up for long distance runs
Soft Feet
Molded, soft feet increase traction to the bottom without damage.
Removable Handlebar
The polished stainless steel handlebar is easily removed and replaced for inverting the unit, shipping, and storage.
Friendly Shape
Large, rounded corners protect your pool, spa and feet.
Rotor Resistance (PAT 302 only)
Allows higher speed training and resistance needed by the advanced individual to simulate hill-work and interval training
High Visibility
This underwater sports color lets everyone know you're in the area. Matching chrome yellow buoy available to mark the handrail for deeper pool applications.

Seven Benefits of Aquatic Exercise

Enhances overall fitness by improving cardio-vascular conditioning
Low Impact on joints and musculo-skeletal system because of the buoyancy of water which supports the body mass and facilitates movement.
High Resistance provided by the physical activity of moving a mass of water improves strength and enhances the use of calories by providing resistance as high as 12 times that for the same movement performed on land.
Elimination of excess body heat is more efficient because of the cooling effect of water.
The safety factor as it relates to muscle and skeletal system is very high because there is no fixed resistance to overcome as in weight-lifting. When movement stops, resistance disappears.
Aquatic Exercise is user friendly, because by varying the speed the individual can exercise with as much or as little effort as desired while still sustaining benefit.
The training of athletes and the benefit to all users is improved because of the reduced recovery time that results from low impact Aquatic Exercise.

THE AQUABILT ADVANTAGE

In brief, using the Aquabilt non-motorized treadmill provides double the muscle effort and strength-building benefit because it requires use of not only the Quadriceps Muscle Group(Front thigh muscles), but unlike pool walking and motorized treadmills, also the Hip Flexors, Gluteal, Hamstring, and Calf Muscle Groups(Back of leg) as the backward movement of the leg engages and pulls the treadmill belt.

This greatly increases the effort required(Calorie Burn) as well as the strength building effect, and reduces the time required to achieve these greater benefits since they are occurring during the same number of strides(or footballs) as in the pool-walking and motorized treadmill exercise.

It is very important that sales people fully understand the significance of the above information so they may share it with prospective customers As this knowledge becomes more widespread, it will clearly establish the Aquabilt Advantage not only with the Residential Market, but also in the Fitness and Therapy Industries.

Summary:

1. Low Impact due to buoyancy allows for more frequent exercise without discomfort

2. High resistance due to movement of limbs trough water makes exercise far more efficient resulting in greater calorie burn per minute

3. Use of non-motorized equipment results in greater
strength-building per stride

Aquabilt Frequently Asked Questions

How is an aquatic treadmill different from a land unit?

One key difference is the reduction of time needed to obtain an equivalent benefit. Due to the resistance provided by the water surrounding the body (12 times greater than air), the effort and calories expended per minute are significantly greater than using a land treadmill.
This is in addition to the resistance provided by the treadmill itself. Therefore the time required to gain the equivalent benefit is approximately 1/2 of a land unit.
How is the treadmill powered?

The Aquabilt Aquatic Treadmill has no internal power source.
The Power is in you!
This fact allows the user to instantly vary the effort being expended across a broad range of speed and back again, simulating real-life conditions such as strolling and power-walking or hill-climbing and track work.
Water shoes are a necessity to receive the greatest benefit and comfort.
What are dimensions of the treadmill?

L: 38"; W: 26"; Handrail Height: 46"; Weight: PAT 201 - 72 lbs, PAT 302 - 75 lbs
How much maintenance does my Aquabilt Treadmill require?

Actually, the Aquabilt Treadmill has been designed to be nearly maintenance-free. All materials used are specified for aquatic and pool environment.
The patented bearing system uses a proprietary combination of proven materials including teflon which is part of the mixture, not a coating.
The treadmill belt makes use of a patented self-adjusting mechanism which will ensure long belt life. .
Periodic washing with car wash soap using a terry cloth towel or new sponge are all that is needed to maintain the original finish.
