Equipment
Best treadmill: Lifespan TR4000i ($1,999)
The innovative console on this treadmill offers an interactive USB feature that automatically transfers information to and from your computer to track progress and download new programs. A built-in Intelli-Step system counts every smooth, cushioned step, while contact pulse grips monitor your ticker. Plus, it comes with an excellent 5-year warranty, and folds up for easy storage.
Best elliptical: AFG 18.0 AXT Ascent Trainer ($2,299)
Smooth and quiet, this sturdy elliptical offers an extended incline range that allows for impressive stride variation and natural-feeling walks and runs. The iPod dock with controls on the console and wireless heart rate monitor with chest strap help you get even more out of your workout—whether you use one of the 10 pre-programmed options or make up your own.
Best stationary bike: Diamondback Fitness 900 Sr ($799)
This bike gives you a big bang for your buck. Besides its great performance, our Equipment judge loved the step-through design (no bulky base to step over), adjustable mesh seat with lumbar support, large display numbers, built-in fan, and a place to plug in your MP3.
Best weight system: Torque Fitness F7 Fold Away Strength Trainer ($3,598 with bench/$3,199 without)
This sleek, space-conscious gym folds into itself and is set up so the exercises mimic the way your body moves in everyday motions like bending and twisting, lifting and rotating. Get a customized workout program by going online to Torque’s web site.

How about reviewing some workout gear for the fuller figured woman. The bra tops and shorts are nice but it leaves out a whole segment of women that exercise.
I agree completely! There is a huge market that would gladly spend money for plus size athletic wear that is both functional and fashionable. I am a former 3X that is now a 1X and wants some new workout gear. Does anyone have any suggestions
I love the apparel at SkirtSports.com and they go up to size XXL.
why can’t i get to the deals listed on p 20 of current issue? i go to health.com/deals as published in the magazine and there’s no direct link, and nothing on the published pages can be found??
I thought I was the only one. How can the 10% coupon be used!?!
Aloha,
In your July/August issue on page 20 FABULOUS SAVINGS, you mention Ryka running shoes from Kelly Ripa collection for 20% off.
I would like to purchase these but caan’t fine them on your website.Please help. I love Ryka’s

How interesting – after two pages of supposedly discount coupons they are no way to be found on your website – when you go to health.com/deals all that is listed are some clothing – what a joke – I was trying to get the coupon for hoopgirl.com with your imaginary 10% off coupon. Thanks for nothing. Looks like I will not be renewing a magazine that advertises ‘MORE FAB STEALS!” and then the “steals” are no way to be found!
I too was looking for the 10% off @ hoopgirl.com. I was looking forward to hooping after 25+ years. Tried my granddaughters and it’s obviously too light.
I am also looking for the coupons advertised in the July/August issue and cAN FIND NOTHING. disappointing
I have been trying to get to your savings deals mentioned on page 20. No luck. Very frustrating. A friend gave me your magazine. I don’t think I would subcribe to your magazine, since it seems like false advertsing.
Our coupon page is now up and running at Health.com/deals. We’re sorry for any inconvenience!
