Resistance Retro Walking™

THOROTREAD® is a patented exercise machine that allows the user to perform an exercise called “Resistance Retro Walking™”, which is simply the motion of dragging or pulling something backwards.

THOROTREAD® is 2 machines in 1 - a treadmill that goes both forwards and backwards but with a very important extra feature. In the backwards mode, you can unlock the grab bar in front of the console and pull it backwards to simulate dragging a weighted object. The constant pulling resistance connected to this bar is actual dead weight, not rubber bands, air cylinders or plastic rods or any of the other gimmicky mechanisms that have been used in the past for cheap resistance. The beauty of the THOROTREAD® weight resistance system is that you can change it with the push of a button while exercising. It’s also a virtually frictionless system so it is glass smooth.
