Ways to boost your treadmill workout

 


Do you prefer the steady pace and indoor comfort of the treadmill to running in the great outdoors? If you’re a dedicated treadmill runner, there are some easy changes you can make to boost your fitness, tone your butt, and burn more kilojoules.

It’s easy to see why so many people choose to run on treadmills rather than outdoors. First, it’s comfortable; the temperature is never too hot or too cold, it never rains, it’s never dark, and there are no harsh UV rays to worry about prematurely ageing your skin. Secondly, the ability to multitask on treadmills comes as a huge bonus to busy bodies. Who doesn’t enjoy catching up on a favourite TV show while doing a bit of exercise? And thirdly, for those who are motivated by numbers and results, the dashboard displaying the number of kilometers, minutes and kilojoules burnt can spur on even the most novice athlete.

Adding to the appeal is the fact that treadmill runners are far less likely to suffer from the same ailments as their outdoor running friends. The treadmill‘s padded surface absorbs part of the impact of each stride, meaning indoor runners are much less likely to join the ranks of runners with knee and joint complaints. And because a treadmill can only simulate flat surfaces and hills, people who choose to run on treadmills will never run downhill – avoiding the running position most likely to do damage to their knees.

The problem with always running on a treadmill

But the one obvious problem with running on treadmills is that it’s easier – there’s no need to battle against wind or resistance to move forward. The treadmill’s constant flat surface and regulated pace also reduces the real-life challenges of running outside.

Treadmills Compare To Other Types Of Home Fitness Equipment

Image
  When it comes to exercise, people like to walk or run. These are natural activities for us. They can have practical applications, such as getting from one place to another. They require less gear than many other forms of exercise (although you can spend a bundle on shoes, clothes and other accessories if you really wanted). And walking or running are great forms of exercise. They burn calories, work many muscle groups and strengthen cardiovascular components in the body. Walking is one of the best or perhaps the only feasible form of exercise for people with diseases such as osteoporosis, hypertension and chronic back pain. Walking doesn’t require a lot of technical know-how or instruction. We already know how to do it, and a few pointers about heart rate and breathing will at least get us on the road.
