The new anti gravity treadmill, also know as alterg treadmill, is a new treadmill running machine that attempts to reduce the pain for people who might be suffering from physical pain. I have not personally tried it as it is currently only available in the US. One of the latest place where you can try is at the Meyer Center Missouri. Even though I have not experienced it personally, I have done a ton of research of this new treadmill running machine. Below are some fun facts that you might want to know.
- The so call anti gravity effect is caused by the vacuum created by a tutu that you need to step into. This helps to lift up to 80% of your body weight, hence helping you to feel weightless which reduces the physical impact on your body as you run.
- You need to increase your speed in terms of running when you are doing warm up. This is to counter the anti gravity effect that the running machine has on your body.
- You can run much faster in the anti gravity treadmill because of less stress on your physical joints. This is very cool as you can have very intense running session without worrying about the impact on your body.
If you want to know where to buy the anti gravity treadmill, it is currently available for sale at the home office of the manufacturer. Here is the url that you can buy the alterg treadmill:

In terms of model, there are currently two models that you can consider:
p200 anti gravity treadmills
This model is meant for sportsmen. It can enable the runner to go from 0 to 18 m. The great thing is that using the p200 running machine will reduce the likelihood of the athletics suffering from any physical injuries due to the impact that the intense running might cause. In terms of the technology used in the p200, it combines the patented alterg DAP technology with the running system of the woodway.
m300 anti gravity treadmills
Another model is the m300 alter g treadmill that is meant for medical use. It enables patient suffering from physical injuries to gradually build up their muscles. In terms of effectiveness, it is still not sure how effective are these anti gravity treadmills. In fact, I am going for real reviews. If you are using such running machines, please let me know and I will like to do an interview with you.
