Are Treadmills good exercise for you?

Answer 1

Treadmills are great for you to use for cardiovascular exercise and burning fat. You can burn more calories the faster you run or the longer you stay on the treadmill. You can explore the different programed options on your treadmill and find what works best for you.

I recommend the burst training exercise, and intense cardio workout which my personal trainer had taught me. I would start on speed 6.0 and run for 45 seconds. I would step out on the sides and rest for 30 seconds before running again but with an increased speed of 7.0. I would repeat this process increasing the speed each time until I reach 10.0. Once I have reached 10.0 I would work back down decreasing it to 9.0 until I have reached 6.0. The burst training exercise is an advanced style of running on the treadmill. Once you get used to a particular style of exercising on the treadmill, it is good to increase the speed, time, or incline to continue to challenge your body to burn more calories.

Treadmill is excellent for cardio and for burning fat, so yes, you can. For best results, alternate with strength training, every other day.

Treadmills are a excellent workout source for low to medium impact workout's. They specialize in the cardio vascular system which means your breathing etc. However you should also supliment a treadmill with weights and other types of fitness. Just remember to excerise moderatly and consult a doctor if needed.
