    Forgot to add, that if you're going to do steeper inclines, wearing a pair of lifting gloves is really helpful so your hands have a good grip. I also throw a thick washcloth over the center bar so I have a little extra cushioning.


    Holding on reduces your calories burned.

    I like the heart monitor. Its accurate. And the info is displayed after syncing over at Garmin connect so I can easily keep track exactly whats going on and being burned.

    @3dogsrunning, yes it does but for safety reasons anything over 8% incline I use the center grip. I also get one heck of a tricep and bicep workout when walking 4-4.5 mph and holding on.
