Train for your next active vacation with iFit workout videos on a NordicTrack treadmill.

Let’s face it: Running on the treadmill is downright boring. You spend a half hour sweating like crazy while half-listening to a podcast or flipping through a guilty pleasure magazine, and trying to ignore the timer. And where do you end up at the end of your run? Exactly where you started. Sure, you got a great workout, but wouldn’t it be nice if treadmill running took you to an amazing destination (or at least rewarded you with some pretty views)?

Now you can actually go somewhere on the treadmill with NordicTrack . The best-selling gym equipment company has partnered with the workout technology experts at iFit to take treadmill runs from stagnant to transformative. They filmed workouts with world-class trainers in some of the most stunning locations around the world, from Paris to Patagonia.

The NordicTrack X32i features a 32-inch HD touchscreen and up to 40 percent incline.

These videos aren’t just a visual distraction to help you power through—they’re completely immersive, leveraging the Earth’s actual landscape to drive the workouts themselves. The NordicTrack treadmills automatically adjust to the incline and speed of the coach in the videos. So when iFit trainer Tommy Rivers Puzey, an ultrarunner and coach, is steadily jogging up a hill at the base of Patagonia’s Cerro Torre, for example, the NordicTrack X32i automatically adjusts the incline to 37 percent and the speed to 2.2 miles per hour so you can feel what it’s really like to be there. When another coach is sprinting down a set of stairs in front of the Eiffel Tower, the treadmill adjusts to a 2 percent decline and a speed of 5.5 miles per hour, allowing you to match exactly what the trainer’s doing without even thinking about it. Plus, NordicTrack X32i’s impressive 32-inch high-definition touchscreen makes it easy to block out distractions and focus on the training program.

The library of global workouts are as much about the scenery as they are about sweating. The destinations have been shot as multiple training series you can work your way through over days or weeks. Each video will take you through a new, invigorating area of your chosen location, giving you plenty of jogging-fueled wanderlust.  And you’ll also experience chuckle-inducing mishaps that happen as the trainers lead their workouts. One coach needs to weave around backpackers on treacherous trails to Machu Picchu, while another averts awkward stares from tourists along the Cinque Terre. This is the real world, after all—you’re just running in it.

It’s impossible not to feel inspired to book a trip to one of the locations you train in with the NordicTrack treadmill. Since the workouts reflect the actual environment, you can feel confident that your body will be able to tackle whatever your next active adventure throws your way, whether you’re running along the edge of a valley in Iceland or sprinting in the sand of Maya Bay in Thailand. And if you just want to take a stroll and enjoy the views, you can manually adjust the speed and incline to something a little more vacation-worthy.

Working out on the NordicTrack X32i means you can walk, jog and trek around the planet’s top destinations without packing a suitcase. But if you happen to have a sudden urge to book a trip to Patagonia after completing the training, don’t say you weren’t warned.
