Feel the freedom of this totally manual treadmill while running or walking on the unique curved running surface where you are the motor. The Curve Treadmill challenges the entire body while burning up to 30% more calories than any other treadmill.”

Members will be notified as new pieces of equipment arrive. “We understand the delay in equipment arriving is not ideal. We do apologize and thank our members for understanding,” stated Shuker.
