A treadmill is one of the most effective tools for cardio workouts, helping with weight loss, endurance, and overall fitness. Follow these steps to use it safely and maximize your workout results.
Safety First
Wear Proper Shoes: Use well-cushioned running shoes for support.
Check the Emergency Stop Button: Know where it is in case you need to stop suddenly.
Start with a Slow Pace: Never jump onto a fast-moving treadmill.
Use the Handrails (Only When Needed): Avoid relying on them too much, as it affects your posture and balance.
Warming Up (5–10 Minutes)
Begin at a slow pace (1.5–2.5 mph) for a few minutes to warm up your muscles.
Increase speed gradually.
Add light dynamic stretching before increasing intensity.
