What should you pay attention to when running on a treadmill?

Running is a sport that many people know, and it is also relatively the simplest and easiest to do. Most people know that they can use a treadmill for running, so they don’t have to worry about the wind and sun outside, as well as the poor air quality outside. It brings many benefits and convenience to people's daily exercise. However, there are a few things you need to pay attention to when running on a treadmill, and I want to tell you.

1. First, warm up your lower body at a high and slow speed. When using a treadmill, do not adjust the speed to a very high level all at once. If the speed is too high, your steps will not be able to adapt to it immediately and you may fall easily.

2. Next, it is best not to close your eyes when running, otherwise your body will easily slide backwards uncontrollably. This is indeed a bit scary.

3. Check carefully to prevent injury

Before using the treadmill, check whether it is placed stably and the surface is dry. Before starting exercise, stand on the footrests on both sides of the treadmill and clip the emergency brake clips to your clothes. When everything is ready and the treadmill starts to rotate, put your feet on the treadmill surface. If it is your first time using it, you need to place your hands on the handles on both sides.

4. Don’t rush to speed up

When running on a treadmill, increase the speed of the treadmill gradually. When you first get on the treadmill, don't set the speed too fast. You can start with "3", then gradually increase to "3.5", and then to "4", gradually increasing it to allow your body to adapt. This is roughly equivalent to the state of taking a walk.

5. Don't jump down immediately after you stop. Stand there for a while, rest, adapt to the sudden still world, and then walk down slowly.

The above are some things you should pay attention to when using a treadmill. Don’t let your body have problems at a young age. Ensuring your own health is the most basic thing. Only with health can you have everything. In daily exercise, you should first know your physical condition and athletic endurance, and it is best to proceed step by step.
