Launch of the Boost 3 Treadmill

PALO ALTO, Calif. – May 6, 2026 – Boost Treadmills has achieved a remarkable milestone by unveiling its newest innovation, the Boost 3, which integrates advanced microgravity training technology once reserved for elite athletes. This groundbreaking product has also earned a prestigious spot in the Space Technology Hall of Fame, a testament to its scientific roots developed at the NASA Ames Research Center.

The Rise of Boost Treadmills

Founded by industry leaders Sean Whalen and Tom Allen, Boost Treadmills is on a mission to make professional-grade exercise technology accessible to everyone. The Boost 3 features differential air pressure (DAP) technology that provides low-impact workouts while minimizing the gravitational load on the user, thereby promoting injury recovery and athletic conditioning.

What Sets the Boost 3 Apart?

The Boost 3 is not just a treadmill; it's a revolution in fitness technology. With a price tag starting at $24,999, it represents a significant reduction compared to traditional systems, making elite performance training feasible for individuals and clinics alike. Rental options are available at $499 per month for home users and $599 for commercial spaces.

The device is engineered for ease of use, featuring a compact design that is 25% smaller than previous models, along with adjustable weight support that allows for precise control in 1% increments. This adaptability makes it ideal for users at different fitness levels or those recovering from injuries.

Origin of the Technology

The roots of the DAP technology trace back to its inception at NASA, pioneered by Rob Whalen, who later commercialized it with the help of his son, Sean, at their former company, AlterG. After parting ways to establish Boost Treadmills in 2017, they continued to enhance this revolutionary technology, culminating in the creation of the Boost 3.

The Hall of Fame Induction

In April 2026, Boost Treadmills was formally inducted as the 98th member of the Space Technology Hall of Fame. This honor acknowledges the team’s contributions to making advanced technologies accessible to consumers. The induction shared the spotlight with the company's new product launch, underscoring the importance of innovation rooted in scientific advancement.

Accessibility and Features

The Boost 3 prioritizes user accessibility, featuring a lower step height for individuals with limited mobility. Furthermore, its whisper-quiet operation is conducive for both home and clinical environments. Pre-programmed protocols cater to common therapeutic and athletic conditioning scenarios, ensuring that users can maximize their workouts with minimal hassle.

Voices from Boost Treadmills

Tom Allen, the CEO of Boost Treadmills, spoke passionately about the new launch: "This technology empowers individuals to maintain their fitness through injuries without undue impact. It's been a mainstay for professional teams, and now it’s available to the wider public."

Market Demand and Future

The launch of the Boost 3 coincides with a trend where recovery and performance technologies are transitioning from professional sports facilities into home settings. This shift is driven by a growing emphasis in healthcare on mobility and active aging. As fitness regimens evolve, the need for effective rehabilitation tools such as the Boost 3 has never been greater.

Pricing and Availability

The Boost 3 is already available for purchase, rental, or lease with installations set to begin in June 2026. Interested buyers can find more information and schedule consultations at www.boosttreadmills.com or reach out via phone.
