The Proform 755 Treadmill is one of Proform's newer economy models. At a very affordable price, it offers several workout programs that will help you build muscle while burning calories.
It also includes a pair of 2 pound handweights to help you work your upper body a bit while walking.

Strengths:
9 Crosstraining Programs - If you're looking to build muscle when you workout, these programs can help. There are 3 programs for your lower body, 3 that focus on your upper body and 3 total body crosstraining workouts. The interactive cross-training coach controls the speed and incline of the treadmill, while prompting you to do several strength training exercises as you workout.
2 lb Handweights - You get a pair of 2 pound handweights with this treadmill to make it easier to build in upper body work while you exercise.
ProShox™ Cushioning - Reduce the impact on your joints by up to 15% as compared to road running with this cushioning system. Overall it's not the best cushioning system Proform offers, but for this price, still not bad.
EKG™ Grip Pulse Sensors - Track your heart rate while you workout and stay in your target heart rate zone.
Weaknesses:
While the 755 Crosstrainer is an attractive machine, it's still a basic treadmill and isn't recommended for runners or heavier users.
Also, we would have liked to see a longer warranty than 90 days on parts and labor.
Overall Conclusion:
The Proform 755 Crosstrainer treadmill is a very affordable, basic little treadmill that offers good motor power, decent-sized walking area and some innovative workout programs to help you put some muscle building exercises into your workout. It's certainly better than some older Proform models at this price point.
Although we wouldn't recommend it for runners or heavy usage, if you're on a budget and only plan on walking, it may be perfect for your needs.
