Fighting treadmill boredom is something which will be your biggest enemy as you work out on any kind of running machine. Running or walking in place is simply not stimulating enough for most of us to focus fully on it and get through that half hour or an hour without getting bored really fast once the novelty wear off. One of the ways people stay focused is by watching television and movies and there are light commercial treadmill with built in TV screens you can buy on the market today which are a neat way to do this.

The problem is, these TV treadmills are expensive and in the comfort of your own home, it’s not really necessary either to go for this extra expense. You will not currently find a cheap treadmill with TV screen monitor attachment, they just don’t exist at the low cost range and you are better off spending the extra money on a better quality treadmill anyway rather than going for a pricey gimmick.

For a health club, these commercial treadmills with televisions attached are great but home users have been getting around the issue for ever with simple solutions. You can of course just place your treadmill in front of an existing television set if you have a portable folding treadmill or you can mount a TV screen on a wall if with the treadmill facing it if you have a dedicated fitness room.

Another alternative is to go with a treadmill TV stand. These are designed specifically for mounting a LCD flat screen TV at an adjustable height right behind a treadmill. This simulates the kind of over-console TV screen mounts seen on expensive commercial machines but at a fraction of the cost. Plus you can choose your own TV in some cases or go with an all in one unit which already has a screen mounted and sometimes also comes with a DVD player built in too.
