Horizon Paragon 508 Treadmill

The Horizon Paragon 508 Treadmill is the successor of the magazine Fit for Fun's test winner (Paragon II CS HRC, Test 12/2003). The new 2.5 PS Digital Drive Motor with RAPIDresponse™ drive system is markedly powerful. The lavishly designed running surface provides plenty of room during home fitness training. Due to the new orthopedic belt the treadmill's damping is particularly easy on the joints. In order to make the running exercise as varied as possible, the Horizon Paragon 508 Treadmill has 15 training programmes in total, two of which heart rate controlled (change of speed and incline) and five user defined programmes.
