SOLE Fitness has published a fitness guide examining the perks of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) on treadmills – providing readers with actionable protocols tailored to suitable equipment. The document details beginner, intermediate, and advanced HIIT routines while linking them to specific SOLE treadmill models, known for their adjustable speeds, incline capabilities, and pre-set HIIT programs.

The guide’s release comes as home exercisers continue to move toward time-efficient training methods – with HIIT among the most popular. Research also indicates that HIIT burns approximately 25 to 30% more calories than traditional cardio formats in shorter timeframes, while some meta-analyses suggest even higher effectiveness.
Yet, SOLE Fitness suggests that effective HIIT execution calls for equipment capable of handling rapid transitions between high-intensity sprints and recovery intervals. Furthermore, cushioning technology that reduces joint impact is thought to be necessary for high-intensity sessions – particularly for users performing repeated sprint intervals.
Not all treadmills respond quickly enough for effective HIIT protocols, however. For example, research suggests that some models can take 27 seconds or even longer to transition between incline levels, disrupting the timing of interval sequences while reducing HIIT workout effectiveness in the process.
As such, SOLE Fitness highlights several of its own machines in terms of their suitability for such workout routines. In particular, SOLE’s F63 model is equipped with a 3.0 HP motor, a speed range from 0.5 to 12 mph, and 15 incline levels together with 10 pre-set workout programs that include dedicated HIIT programming.
The F85, meanwhile, features a more powerful 4.0 HP motor, a 22-inch by 60-inch running surface, and a weight capacity of up to 400 pounds. Both models notably incorporate CushionFlex Whisper Deck technology – a feature that reduces joint impact by up to 40% compared to outdoor running surfaces, according to SOLE Fitness.
As written in the guide: “Always use your treadmill’s built-in features. Many SOLE treadmills come with pre-set HIIT programs that automatically adjust speed and incline, making it easier to follow your workout. Mixing speed and incline can also add variety and challenge to your routine.”
Users who opt for such equipment stand to benefit from the routines detailed in SOLE’s guide, from warm-up protocols to recovery interval ratios, sample workout structures, cool-down procedures, and safety recommendations. The document also references built-in features such as water bottle holders, heart rate trackers, and pre-set programs – recommending that readers integrate these elements into a regular HIIT plan.
