I actually don't get the point of getting a 4000 treadmill rather than one that's half the price and an ipad

But really, my understanding is that these fancier treadmills map incline/speed/whatever data to the video file to make it “more realistic”. I think there may even be a sort of MMO/live ghost feature?
Personally I think I’d rather just have music I like and work out at a pace that’s comfortable for me, but to each their own I suppose.
My tacx trainer was only $300 or so when I bought it, which was comparable to non-bluetooth trainers. That said, I already owned a fancy roadbike to use with it, which is not a negligible cost.
A power tap block is $3. :)
Edit: /s obviously. I was responding to a joke with a joke.
A treadmill to me is just so boring and doesn't feel right compared to actually moving.
Walking outside when it is 10 degrees out with an audio book is still a better experience to me than a treadmill.
