Best athletic product I've ever bought. 38 y/o, 20+ years of volleyball. Grade 3 patella/trochlear groove chondromalacia in both knees and grade 4 chondrol loss. I've been on it 5-6 night a week for a little over 6 months. This is the best my knees have felt in years. My knees should shudder just straightening them in bed at night, constant knee popping, and feeling the need to straighten my legs, these are all gone now. Pain going downstairs is mild compared to what it was.
2 months in I saw real changes in athleticism, now at 6 months and I haven't jumped like this in years. Excited to see where I'm at in another year.
This treadmill gave me my belief back. Because I've seen real changes I went ahead and bought the nordic, slantboard, sled and back extension as well. I'm all in.
Thank you ATG, you've given me my hope back and a return to the athleticism I didn't believe I could get back, this has felt like a cheat code.
Im sure once Im able to assemble, it will be awesome. I feel misled by minimal assembly required. It will be unassembled until someone younger and stronger can assist. UPDATE As of 6/23/25, my Backward treadmill is assembled, and I have done my first of many 10 min.sessions. THANK YOU ATG for your awesome customer service and product. I can't wait to update you on the upcoming improvement of my knees.
Thank you very much for your order and your support! We are thrilled that you are happy with your Backward Treadmill. Please do keep us updated on your progress!
I have been using the treadmill for forward/backward walking and sprinting. Excellent quality at a reasonable price.
Terrific! We're delighted that you're satisfied with your Backward Treadmill!
Works as it should. I’ve had it for a few months now. It was easy to assemble. Two upgrades to make this perfect for your home gym.
1.Wheels to move it out of the way, currently I have to drag it when I want to move in my fan bike.
2.Instead of the screw and knob system to fold the treadmill up switch to a spring loaded pin similar to my rouge fan bike seat or like the locking pin on the west side barbell reverse hyper.
Other than those two small wish list items I do try to use this every 2nd day.
I’m close to 50 and want to build up my flexibility and knee strength.
Thank you very much for the positive review and the feeedback! We will take these suggestions into account for a future model. Thanks or supporting ATG!
I have the backward treadmill for almost 5 months now, use it daily and as a super 10 minute warmup (and for forward walking/running as well :D :P) for training days ^^ I'm from the Netherlands, shipping was super (FedEx) and it was definitely worth the cost !!
Thank you very much for your purchase and for taking the time to write a review! We're so pleased that you are satisfied with your Backward Treadmill. Thanks for supporting ATG!
