The Underwater Treadmill

Do you like being in water, and being on a treadmill? At the same time? Then the Hydro Worx is for you.

The treadmill sits in a tank with an adjustable water level.

Injuries while training in water tend to be lower than land-based exercise.

With buoyancy reducing the weight of the user, load on joints and specific muscular points is decreased. This makes movement less impacting for patients with injuries. Low impact exercise within water can also prevent users gaining an injury.
