Next in the folding series from Sole is the F83 treadmill. The F83 fetures upgrades, like a club-style Tri Color LED display with message board and a higher output and a 3.0 Continuous Duty HP motor. With the Heart Rate Control on the console, users can view pulse and make changes to incline and speed as needed. The F83 uses the included wireless chest strap that touts a 99.9% accuracy rating to read pulse.

Enjoy a workout variety of six auto programs or two customizable programs including two heart rate control programs for cardio or weight loss. Other features include a Cushion Flex treadmill deck, arm rest incline and speed controls, a 1/4-mile track display, and a wide, commercial-sized belt.

The information that is displayed at all times on the console include, Speed, Incline, Time, Distance Traveled, Calories, Pulse and Pace. There is also a 1/4 mile track feature and a Peak and Valley graph for different programs. The console also has built in speakers which allow you to hook up any MP3 player( iPod, etc.) for easy listening.
