Is it useful to buy a treadmill?

First of all, it can save time and you can exercise at any time.

Secondly, you are not restricted by the weather and you won’t be unable to run because of rain.

The third is that you don’t have to worry about safety and pollution issues when exercising outdoors.

How to make the treadmill work better?

1. Use fast startup mode

A good treadmill will have a set of pre-installed programs. When you are running, you only need to enter the data according to the prompts, and you can choose different exercise methods, such as "fat loss mode", "cardiopulmonary function mode", "mountain climbing mode", "random mode", etc. Among them, the quick start mode can adjust the exercise intensity at any time.

2. Pay attention to your body position

You should stand in the middle of the running belt. If you stand too forward, you will easily step on the base, and if you stand too far back, you will easily be thrown out. Of course, don't run off the side.

3. Start walking

It is recommended to start from a walking speed of 4-6 km/h and gradually transition to running. In addition, brisk walking can utilize more fat for energy, and the fat-reducing effect is relatively better.

4. Slow down and stop

Although you try hard to move forward, your body always stays in the same place, which confuses the brain. So you may feel dizzy when you just get off the treadmill. This situation will not happen if you gradually slow down.

From this we can see that buying a treadmill for exercise is completely beneficial. It not only keeps your body healthy, but also helps you lose weight. However, if conditions permit, it is best to exercise outdoors. This way, you can breathe fresh air while exercising, and exercise amid the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, which will make you feel better.
