The ProForm iSeries 765 is not a heavy-duty treadmill, but it is a good value for a budget treadmill.

If you are looking for a machine that can handle runners, multiple users or excessively overweight individuals, this is not the treadmill for you. However, if you plan to primarily walk, the 765 is worth considering.

The ProForm iSeries 765 treadmill offers a nice selection of features, designed to assist you in achieving your fitness goals like getting in shape and losing weight.

ProForm iSeries 765 Treadmill Features:

20" x 55" Treadbelt - If you are a walker, this treadbelt is an adequate length for individuals up to approximately 6'3". You'll find some models in this price range have an 18" wide belt and a short length. It feels very confining.

2.25 Continuous Duty HP Motor - This motor will suffice for walkers, and should not strain when you crank up the incline.

Console with Fan - The console is designed well. You have can change the speed and incline with a touch of a button, rather than having to scroll up and down.

The display is an inexpensive LCD, but that is to be expected with a budget model. Regardless, it provides multiple feedback, like time, speed, calories burned, pulse rate. You get a 2-speed fan that helps cool you down, which is actually a popular feature.

Nine Training Programs - The ProForm 755 treadmill has twelve programs, offering a variety of challenges. I find using different workouts tends to motivate me, and overcomes the boredom of walking in place.

As with most treadmills in this price range you get hand grip pulse sensors. This give you feedback on your heart rate, which can assist you in getting an optimum workout. Once you determined your acceptable heart rate exertion, you can work within that range in order to burn the most calories. (Note: Check with your physician on your proper heart rate level for exercising.)

iFIT Challenge Training Center - I've not seen this feature in person, but it sounds intriguing. According to the site...

Melt fat, build muscle and eat well with the ifit® Challenge Training Center. Thanks to a built-in fitness assessment, the ifit® Challenge gives you monthly nutrition and exercise plans each based on your individual needs.

Easy Fold - The ProForm 765 treadmill is designed with shocks for folding. This makes it effortless for lifting or dropping the deck.

Warranty - Except for the motor coverage, the warranty is weak. That is because ProForm hopes to upsell you on an extended warranty, which you want to purchase. The current coverage is 90-days parts and labor, the motor is covered for 12 years. You probably want to extend that by 1-2 years at the checkout.

Note: As with most treadmill manufacturers, ProForm overexagerates the weight limit. It is a typical marketing ploy. They place it at 300 lbs., I would not recommend this treadmill to anyone over 230 lbs.

Our Review - ProForm iSeries 765 Treadmill

If your budget is limited to around $700, then the ProForm 765 is one of your better buys. The features are decent, and the quality is above average in comparison to other models in this price range. I would also check out comparable NordicTrack treadmills, which are built by the same parent corporation and at the same facility.

One last note, the warranty is 12 years on the motor and 1 year for parts and labor. I would upgrade the parts and labor coverage to another 1-2 years and protect your investment.
