Walking and running are the most natural forms of exercise, and with a treadmill you can do both in the comfort and safety of your home. They're ideal if you have a family, since people of all ages can use them. If your fitness goals include general fitness, weight loss, or building up stamina.
Increase everyday fitness
A
few half-hour sessions on a treadmill will improve your aerobic
fitness - the basic conditioning that lets you walk or run without getting out
of breath. Better aerobic fitness means more energy and enthusiasm for
everyday life.
Lose weight
Treadmills offer an effective way to burn calories without stressing your body. You can set the 'pace' of the treadmill to a slow walk or fast run - and simulate hills to make it harder. A long, gentle
jog or fast walk is an excellent method for losing weight, especially if
you do it regularly.
Improve your stamina
A treadmill will make your heart stronger, meaning you'll be able to walk or run for longer distances without stopping. The ability to keep going is useful for both life and work!
