Treadmill Workout for Weight Loss
Treadmill workouts seem to be one of the most common exercise machines used by fitness enthusiasts at any level, but particularly beginners. Treadmills have proven beneficial in being a less intimidating way to exercise both at home and in a crowded gym.
Many years ago when I joined a gym, I can remember being very intimidated by both the people and all of the equipment. The treadmill was the one piece of exercise equipment I knew I hop on and immediately be able to turn on without embarrassing myself.
The variety a treadmill provides makes it a great choice for home equipment purchases and explains why gyms always have an abundance available.
This is the treadmill we have at home. I remember my progression on it years ago. Of course, when I started my fitness journey, a brisk walk was a strenuous workout, but I didn’t stop there. Because of the air cushion in the treadmill and my confidence level increasing, I was able to move into a jog and later made running on the treadmill a frequent choice of cardio.
A good source of cardio can make a huge difference in burning fat, increasing cardiovascular health and overall increased status of good health.
The treadmill workout allows for multi-tasking such as watching your favorite TV show, listening to music or a favorite podcast which can definitely help pass the time quickly if you hate cardio as many people do.
If you are considering purchasing a piece of equipment that has the flexibility and variety to expand as your fitness level increases, a treadmill could be the answer for you.
