Benefits of Treadmills
The benefits of using a treadmill extend beyond increasing your daily caloric burn. It’s been proven that walking or running on a treadmill has significantly less impact on your joints than doing the same activity outdoors on pavement, gravel or other hard surfaces. The running deck of a treadmill will generally absorb much of the impact otherwise absorbed by your knees, ankles, hips and back if you were running on pavement.
Running on a treadmill will also give you full control of your workout. Having the ability to customize the speed, duration, incline, decline and intensity of your run will keep you motivated, engaged, invested in your training and will inevitably accelerate positive results. You will never be forced to run the same route twice!
Quite possibly the most important benefit of regular treadmill workouts is improved heart health. Including a treadmill workout to your daily routine will improve your cardiovascular health and reduce your risk of disease. It will also help to lower your blood pressure and improve cholesterol levels.
