NordicTrack launched in 1975 and became known for their cross-country ski exercise machines thanks to the TV commercials. By the 1990's NordicTrack has branched out to include other home fitness equipment like treadmills and stationary bikes. Today NordicTrack manufactures some of the most popular models of treadmills, incline trainers and ellipticals. They also have come out with innovative low impact exercise products like the FreeStrider which is 3 machines in 1, a treadmill, elliptical, and stepper. Plus many NordicTrack machines include the latest technology like touch screens and iFit at affordable prices.

With this functionality along with Google Maps training routes (terrain simulator) you can workout anywhere in the world. Thanks to Google street view and special videos taken you can also train on famous courses like the Boston Marathon. iFit also offers professional workouts designed by celebrity trainers like Jillian Michaels.
