## The Science of Sticking With Your Workouts

Aviron uses behavioral science mechanics proven in a 1,062-person clinical trial (BE ACTIVE randomized controlled trial, *Circulation*, 2024) where game mechanics got people moving more than cash payments did.

| Feature | What It Does | Why It Works |
|---|---|---|
| Teams | Auto-drafted onto 1 of 4 teams; every workout minute boosts your team | Teams players train 3× as often |
| Group Workout Lobby | Join live sessions with people around the world | People last 78% longer working out together |
| Time Machine Mode | Race a live "ghost" of your past workout | Visible progress is the most addictive reason to return |
| Levels, Avatars & Backgrounds | Unlock rewards as you progress | Chasing "just one more" turns a workout into a habit |
| Badges & Monthly Challenges | Quick wins or bigger monthly challenges | A clear goal keeps you on track when tempted to skip |
| Leaderboards & High Scores | Rank matched by age, gender, and friends | Healthy benchmarks to chase #1 or your own best |

## FAQ

**How does the 30-Day Risk-Free Trial work?**
There is a 30-day risk-free return period. If you decide to return your Aviron, package it back in the original box and Aviron will send a return label for shipping. There are no restocking or return shipping fees. See the [return policy](https://www.avironactive.com/support/general/return-policy/) for details.

**What warranty is included?**
Aviron's connected fitness equipment comes with a comprehensive 20-year limited warranty on parts for equipment and accessories — including the touchscreen, motors, deck, belt, control pad, and frame — provided your initial membership is active and the equipment is purchased directly through Aviron's website. If your membership is no longer active or you did not purchase directly from Aviron's website, you'll still receive an industry-leading 10-year warranty on the drive motor and structural frame, plus a 1-year limited warranty on parts for equipment and accessories. See the [Warranty page](https://www.avironactive.com/support/general/warranty/) for full details.

**Is the Podium suitable for daily or serious running?**
Yes. The 4.5 CHP brushless drive motor is commercial-grade and stays cool through long or hard sessions. You get a 14 mph top speed, an 18% incline for real hill work, a 22" x 60" deck with room for a full stride, and a 350 lb weight capacity. The CloudStride deck with 8 shock absorbers reduces impact on knees, hips, and back — which matters most when running frequently.

**Can the treadmill be folded and stored away?**
Yes. The Podium folds using SafeLift, a pneumatic-assisted mechanism that helps you lift the deck with minimal effort, then lowers it slowly and safely on its own. In use: 80" L x 37" W x 66" H. Folded: 49" L x 37" W x 68" H. Two transport wheels near the center of gravity make it easy to reposition.

**What is the Aviron Treadmill WalkDesk?**
The WalkDesk is an optional accessory that snaps onto the Podium and turns it into a stable standing workstation — covering three jobs: walking desk, walking pad alternative, and full-speed connected treadmill. The desk stays level even when the treadmill is inclined, and includes an accessory tray, cup holder, access to the magnetic wireless charging pad, and a USB-C port.

**Which Aviron treadmill is right for me?**
Aviron makes three treadmills. The Podium is the all-rounder: powerful motor, large deck, high incline for runners and busy households, and it folds away. The Justice is the most compact entry point into the lineup and also folds. The Summit is the most capable machine, with the largest deck and most cushioned ride, plus a 42% incline for hill training — it does not fold.
