SKILLRUN™

MULTIDRIVE TECHNOLOGY

SKILLRUN™ creates the new gold standard for performance running, answering the needs of all runners, from sprinters to marathoners and triathletes. The innovative MULTIDRIVE TECHNOLOGY™ (PATENT PENDING) enables users to perform running sessions and resistance workouts on the same piece of equipment, providing a well-rounded cardio and power training workout.

SPEED

Strengthen your resistive power and top-end speed with PARACHUTE TRAINING. The exclusive Technogym workout and optional PARACHUTE TRAINING KIT (PATENT PENDING) reproduce the feeling of outdoor running with a parachute in optimized conditions. Resistance is null at the start and increases as you gain speed. PARACHUTE TRAINING is ideal for speed resistance training workouts.

POWER

Boost your explosive power and acceleration with SLED TRAINING. The exclusive Technogym workout reproduces the feeling of pushing a sled on grass. Resistance is high at the start and decreases to a constant rate as you pick up speed. SLED TRAINING is ideal for pushing against resistance
workouts.

AGILITY

Improve your neuromuscular coordination with agility drills and CADENCE TRAINING. The wider running space enables you to perform multidirectional exercises and cadence variations in total safety and comfort.

STAMINA

Raise your endurance efficiency with BIOFEEDBACK (PATENT PENDING). The exclusive interactive technology by Technogym tracks and monitors your main running parameters in real time, providing colour-coded feedback that enables you to improve your performance.

PERFORMANCE TRAINING

SKILLRUN is the only treadmill that incorporates resistance training exercises.

• SLED for maximum sprint and
  acceleration
• PARACHUTE for maximum speed
• RUN AGAINST RESISTANCE for lower body and core strength.

CADENCE TRAINING

Find your ideal run cadence and learn to maintain it in even when you are fatigued by maximising your effort and running efficiency. SKILLRUN detects and analyzes your parameters, allowing you to:

• Practice different cadences at a set speed
• Maximise your endurance efficiency through cadence control

ROUTINES

Boost your workout effectiveness! 3 goal-oriented routines take you through each step of the exercise, helping you achieve your results more easily and efficiently. Target specific needs with these exclusive embedded workouts:

• CARDIO FIT: combines speed changes and uphill/downhill runs
• STRONG LEGS: mixes sled resistance training, lunges and uphill runs
• SPEED & AGILITY DRILLS: alternates between sprints and coordination exercises.

MAXIMAL POWER SLED PUSH TEST

In addition to all the others tests, already installed on the Excite and Artis Run, SKILLRUN™ features the MAXIMAL POWER SLED PUSH TEST, a test to measure the explosive power using the SLED TRAINING technology.

Besides the MAXIMAL POWER SLED PUSH TEST is very important to set the right value for the PERFORMANCE TRAINING EXERCISES.

QUICKPAD

Change speed and gradient in an instant. It opens when you touch the speed or gradient tiles and closes automatically three seconds after the last command.

• SPEED: dedicated buttons for speed from 5 to 20 km/h (1 to 15 mph). Acceleration and deceleration ramps are sharper than standard ones.
• GRADIENT: dedicated buttons for gradients from -3% to +14%.

BIOFEEDBACK (PATENT PENDING)

Maximize the efficiency of your performance with real-time feedback on:

• RUNNING POWER*
• CADENCE*
• STEP LENGTH
• GROUND CONTACT TIME
• PROPULSION TIME
• FLIGHT TIME
