It's odd they went after them.

I guess they fingered out why treadmills usually have


May 5, 2021, 11:18 AM

some sort of enclosure on the back end to keep peeps from being sucked in underneath by the belt. No, they had to have their own style, sitting up and open underneath.

noggin under there, but if it's used safely, like you'd use everything other treadmill, the problem wouldn't be there.

Unplug it, pull the safety cord when not in use, teach the kids not go near it. I'd treat it like I treat every other piece of exercise equipment.

You think FBC is putting taking off all the 5lb weights from his curl bar after every work out, or is he just leaving it in the squat rack like? 25lbs of weights ontop of a kids head will knock him off as well.

Woodway Treadmills have been this way

forever. I have one and my kids are alive. Guess unplugging it and paying attention to your kids pays off.

Or you could ignore your kids and sue Peleton.
