Yes it’s October again. Leaves are falling, temps are dropping and tubes of fake blood are selling like hotcakes. At TTR we’ve decided to get in the Halloween spirit by detailing some of the scariest treadmills we’ve ever seen. CAUTION: If you’re squeamish about horrifying gizmos, frighteningly bad designs and insane contraptions you may want to stop reading now.

1) The Underwater Treadmill – Ah yes, a relaxing day at the pool. You’ve got your sunblock, your water wings and your snorkel. So what’s missing? A treadmill of course!

The SPT Aquatic Underwater Treadmill simply drops into your pool and allows you to “walk or run in a weight-free environment against the natural smooth resistance that only water can provide.” Really? Whatever happened to–I don’t know–swimming in your pool?

2) The Anti-Gravity Treadmill – And you thought NASA only made space ships. This little doozie is called the Woodway G-Trainer. The G-Trainer™ creates a powerful lifting force, known as Advanced Differential Air Pressure Technology (ADAPT), that allows for precise ultra-low impact ambulation.

In all seriousness it’s a good tool that helps patients recover faster from orthopedic and neurological conditions. But dang, what a beastly looking contraption to have in your living room.

3) Treadmills for Tots – It’s just what every kids wants to see under the tree on Christmas morning…the Treadmill for Tots! Your kids will have hours of fun running and walking and running and walking…or not.

It’s actually not a bad idea, but whatever happened to playing football or riding bikes? Must be a generational thing.

4) The Rollator Treadmill – Just when you thought it was safe to stay inside… That’s right, the Ooms Rollator is the world’s first treadmill with wheels that actually moves when you walk.

I thought the whole point of a treadmill was so you could exercise inside? Again, probably a generational thing.

5) The Dog Treadmill – Our list just wouldn’t be complete without the treadmill for dogs–the Jog A Dog.

If you’ve got a pudgy pooch the Jog A Dog is “designed with the input of veterinarians, physical therapists, breeders and engineers” to help your dog get off the couch and get in shape.

There you have it. The 5 scariest treadmills on the market today. If you own, or have seen, a scary treadmill we’d love to see it. Just attach a pic to the comments section below this post or email us at info@top-treadmill-reviews.com. Happy Halloween!
