Health Benefits Of Treadmill (with the privacy of your own home )

A treadmill is a low-impact indoor exercise machine that allows a person to walk, jog or run in place by providing a moving running belt over a deck. Treadmills offer the convenience of exercising any time of the day or night within the privacy of your own home.

You might have one at home and they're in every gym: treadmills, the best-known and used machines for cardiovascular exercise. This "moving sidewalk" lets you walk or try out different running techniques, deciding whether to focus on losing weight, getting toned, or improving your cardiovascular capacity.

Training on a treadmill can become your main source of exercise or a complement to it if you're used to running outside but your schedule is not cooperating.

You can also create gradual training programs and eventually run a marathon!

With a treadmill you can exercise to :

1.    Lose weight
There's no doubt! Running and walking are the kinds of exercise that let you burn the most calories and fat!

2.    Toning and fighting cellulite
Walking and running principally involve your legs, glutes, and calves. What is the right workout for toning them and fighting retention problems? By decreasing the speed and increasing the slope, you increase the working time on the belt (supported on the foot) and consequently the contraction of the muscles and blood circulation.

3.    Keeping your heart and joints in shape
The cardiovascular workout you get on a treadmill activates your blood circulation and improves the efficiency of your heart. This gives you better endurance, lets you feel less tired, and gives you better staying power for all your daily activities

Treadmill technology is always changing, but if you are in the market for a treadmill you might want to consider a few basic things :

1.    Make sure the running deck is long enough and wide enough for you to take a natural stride.

2.    If buying a motorized treadmill look for motors that are guaranteed for ten years.

3.    Check the minimum and maximum speeds the treadmill can support. Some treadmills are built for fast walking, not jogging. If you want to jog or run faster than 5mph (8kph), you'll likely need to pay a little more and get a more powerful unit with a maximum speed of 8-12mph (13-19kph).

The ideal is to train three times a week for at least 30 minutes and trying to stay consistent for at least 3 months.
