The present invention relates to selectively adjustable speed and incline levels for treadmills. An example treadmill includes a platform around which a belt rotates, a drive motor for controlling a speed of rotation of the belt, a linear motor for controlling an incline of the platform, a human machine interface configured to receive from a user a first selection regarding at least one of the speed of rotation of the belt and the incline of the platform, at least one manual lever configured to receive from the user a second selection to respectively refine the first selection, and at least one controller that selectively changes the speed of rotation of the belt or the incline of the platform based on the first selection received by the human machine interface, and selectively and respectively refines the first selection based on the second selection received by the at least one manual lever.
