In what ways have your Woodway Treadmills benefited the facility?

Our Woodway treadmill allows us to meet the demands of elite level athletes who often surpass the speeds available on traditional treadmills. The versatility of the ELG allows our facility to offer a wide variety of services such as specific measurement and evaluation protocols, training scenarios and biomechanical analysis in order to improve athletic performance, reduce injury risk, and monitor progression during injury rehabilitation. It has been a reliable "member" of our team for many years.

WOODWAY ELG

The ELG treadmill is one of the industry’s fastest treadmills. This treadmill is ideal for speed and over-speed progressions due to a 40.2kph capability. The ELG provides uphill, and downhill training with a significant incline range of -5% to a max elevation of 35%. We engineered and built this treadmill for serious athletes.

Bigger, faster, and stronger than other treadmills, the Pro has the ability to handle some of the most elite and most powerful athletes. Accurate speeds for reliable testing, WOODWAY’s performance treadmills will not be the limiting factor in your training.
