With winter on the way it’s time to think about how you are going to maintain your weight or lose that extra weight over the next 6 months. Most people gain weight over the winter months and I know from experience that it can be hard to stay active.

That’s why I’m glad that I have my treadmill. I got it a few years ago and it cost me Just under $1000 dollars. It has paid for itself over and over again.

Right now the Merit Fitness 725T treadmill is on sale at Amazon for $399.99 you’re saving $200 plus you can have it shipped for free.

“I’ve been in the fitness industry for over 10 years and have always been leary about buying a “cheap” home machine. This treadmill works great for home use. I was thoroughly impressed. I’m 230lbs and I can run on it with no problems! Great machine for the money! ”

“I would have to say I researched buying a treadmill for some time and came upon this one for many reasons. 1. it was in my price range. I also saved $87 dollars on the shipping. As for shipment , it came fast and was in mint condition. Setup, was easy.

This machine is a sturdy piece of equipment. Doesn’t feel cheap. I will say I wish it would fold up more vertical but with all the features it is more than satisfactory. If your looking for something durable and effective for your exercise needs this will surely be the purchase.”

Looking for some specs?

How about a 2.2GHz Intel Core2 Duo with 800 mhz front side bus (that’s good).

The speed of your laptop also depends on the amount of memory available for your CPU to utilize. The HP Pavilion DV6 series laptops come with 4GB of DDR3 Ram which is more than enough for anything you throw at it.

HP Pavilion DV6 Reviews

Here are what others are saying about this model in the HP Pavilion series. Read all the reviews HERE

“The specs for this model are set well above what the average home owner needs today which (in my mind) future proofs it nicely. If you are on a tight budget you can get what you need for less (look at the HP Pavilion G60 line). If you have a little bit more to spend and you want some headroom to handle your computing needs for the next few years this is a great choice.”

“Ergonomically the keyboard is great. My last laptop was an HP and I am pleased with the reliability. I am really liking Windows 7 in it’s functionality. It starts up almost instantly from sleep mode. This is great laptop at a very good price.”
