Introduction

The NordicTrack A2550 Pro is a great value considering all the features you receive for under $800.

The smooth operation of the 2.5 CHP motor keeps the treadmill running on Comfort Shox cushioning, which absorbs more impact giving you a more comfortable stride and step.

The 20″ x 55″ running surface is adequate for most users as is the 1-touch speed and incline reaching 12 mph and 10 percent incline respectively.

Workout Programs

The NordicTrack A2550 Pro provides 16 pre-defined workout programs which automatically adjust speed and incline depending on the program.

The workout programs are divided into four different categories, each with four programs including: Performance Workouts, Distance Workouts, Weight-Loss Workouts and Timed Workouts.

If that is not enough, tap into the unlimited potential with iFit Live which allows you to virtually customize your own fitness program with automatic workout downloads, tips from celebrity trainer Jillian Michaels and even the ability to race your friends in 5k competitions via Facebook.

Additionally, users can track nutrition and activity, receive motivating text messages and email as well as download additional content on iFit.com.
