The Doâs of Safe Treadmill Use
Even if youâre an industry expert, youâll always get the best use out of any piece of gym equipment when you know how to use it safely and effectively. Here are the Southside Fitness teamâs top recommendations for safe treadmill use, whether youâre in the gym or at home.
- Incline: The incline setting on a treadmill will change the diagonal tilt of your walking track and can be just as (if not more) effective for a great workout as running at full tilt. Always remember to turn a treadmill flat (incline level 0) to ensure safe use and minimise the risk of injury. If youâre interested in increasing the incline, we recommend doing so at a slow walking speed (Running is safest when the walking track is flat!).
- Injury Rehabilitation: Whether youâre recovering from an injury or new to exercising, you can get a fantastic workout walking at a slower setting and a slight incline instead of running beyond your means. Easier on the lower limbs than running and a safe way to get used to the constant movement of the walking pad, our in-house team can chat with you about the safest way to ease into treadmill use before taking a new machine home.
- Safety Strap: Whether youâre running, walking, on an incline, or a running expert, the safety strap is included on every treadmill for good reason. Designed to be gently connected to the exerciser by clip or strap, the Safety Strap is an emergency signal between the machine and the runner in case of an emergency or fall. Why? Whether youâre in the gym or at home, accidents happen. The Safety Strap tells the treadmill when there has been an incident or the runner is no longer connected with the machine, so it can turn off and minimise the risk of further harm.
Once you’ve learned the safety basics, you can start looking through the various brands, styles, and features that will best suit your fitness goals. Unsure where to begin? Read on below to check out some of the most commonly asked questions we receive about treadmills every day and our go-to advice.
Common Treadmill FAQs
Looking for more information? Here are some of the most commonly asked questions we receive about treadmill use in the gym and at home.
Which is the best treadmill for home use?
Which treadmill is best for you to use at home will depend on a number of factors like your current fitness level, space at home, and fitness goals. Talk to our team about each of these when deciding which treadmill to buy.
What to look for when buying a treadmill?
Youâll want to take into consideration the brand (for quality and warranty), the size, weight capacity, and price of a treadmill before you decide to buy.
Is a treadmill a good way to lose weight?
Definitely! Weight loss is a balance of nutrition, fitness, and existing lifestyle and health factors; that said, cardio activity is an excellent addition to most fitness routines. Talk to our team about the different options and features in our treadmill range.
What can 10 minutes on a treadmill do?
A lot! Working out can be just as effective in short sprints as long sessions at the gym. Talk to our team about how you can maximise shorter workouts to help you reach your goals.
