Running on a treadmill is one of the most beneficial workouts we can do on a regular basis.
Running uses nearly every muscle in the body, and also helps to improve overall cardiovascular health, as well as improving balance and stamina.
Although running is highly beneficial some people struggle to run due to muscle or joint issues, an advanced weight problem, or an injury that precludes the ability to engage in high-strain, high-impact activities.
If you find it difficult to run then we recommend walking on a treadmill rather than running.
Walking provides many of the same benefits as running, but with far less physical stress on the body; and as with running you have to be sensible when first starting a walking routine.
If you walk at a faster pace you will burn calories at a faster rate.
Your size, stride and speed will affect how many calories your burn in 10,000 steps. For an 70kg woman walking at a fairly brisk pace of 6kph an hour, it would take around 90 minutes and burn more than 400 calories.
Walking will make a huge impact on the way you both look and feel. Walking will also increase your muscle tone, boost metabolism, ease stress, raise energy levels and improve sleep and help you to lose weight.

Once you have decided that a treadmill is the right choice for you, then selecting a model and price range is the next step.
