Fitness enthusiasts in the UK can now experience a groundbreaking innovation with the launch of the Bowflex T9 treadmill — the country’s first machine to offer seamless direct syncing with popular smartwatches.
Designed as a fully connected, foldable treadmill, the Bowflex T9 enables users to effortlessly pair their Apple Watch or Samsung Galaxy Watch (including the Galaxy Watch 7) via NFC. This connectivity allows real-time tracking of heart rate, steps, and other vital fitness metrics, eliminating the need for additional chest strap monitors.
Beyond its smartwatch integration, the T9 impresses with features aimed at enhancing workout comfort and experience. Its cushioned Flex Zone XL Deck System provides a softer, joint-friendly running surface, while the expansive 152 x 56 cm deck offers a gym-quality feel. The treadmill also includes a motorized incline adjustable up to 15%, Quick Response dials for instant speed and gradient changes, dual cooling fans, and built-in Bluetooth speakers.
Users can access popular fitness apps like JRNY, Zwift, and Kinomap, and stream their own workouts or playlists using their smartphone or tablet, as the T9 lacks a built-in multimedia display (apart from a basic stats screen).
Practicality is another strong point: the treadmill folds away compactly after use, making it suitable for those with limited space who still want a premium exercise machine at home.
Available now across UK retailers such as Decathlon, Argos, and Johnson Fitness, the Bowflex T9 carries a price tag of £2,199.99. While the cost is significant, the convenience of smartwatch integration and gym-quality features may make it a compelling upgrade for home fitness aficionados.
