I’ve used tons of treadmills and combed through treadmill manuals. In my years spent working in gyms, I often had to clean the machines. One of the lessons I learned there was how important daily maintenance is because it saves your machine from needing a more in-depth clean later. If you wait too long, the build-up on your treadmill could impact its operation.

Use this guide to clean your treadmill and prevent complications from sweat and dirt accumulation.

Daily

After every workout, you should wipe sweat, dust, and any other debris off the treadmill console and deck. You don’t have to do anything too complicated, like loosening the belt, but you clean any exposed surface that comes into contact with sweat or dirt with a quick wipe. Wiping away sweat can prevent metal components from rusting.

Keep your daily cleaning supplies close to the treadmill for easy access.

A dry cloth or paper towel will do, but you can use water or a treadmill-safe cleaner for a deeper clean. If you use water or a treadmill-safe cleaner, make sure your washcloth or paper towel is only damp, never dripping. A dry microfiber cloth is also a really good choice for wiping down your treadmill; it worked really well for me.

If you want to clean the electronics on the console, be sure to use only electronics cleaner. Glass cleaner is not safe for touchscreens.

Regardless of what cleaning solution you use, you should never spray it directly onto the treadmill. Spray it onto a paper towel or washcloth to wipe your treadmill down.

Pro Tip: Keep a pair of walking or running shoes just for the treadmill to avoid tracking in dirt from your outdoor exercise sessions.

Weekly

Fold up your treadmill and vacuum underneath the deck.

Once a week (or more often, depending on the level of use and cleanliness), vacuum around the treadmill. You can also vacuum underneath the treadmill and the belt and deck. If you want to make sure you get the entire treadmill belt, set it to a slow speed.

If you’ve been spot cleaning the treadmill daily, then weekly you should do a bigger clean. Wipe down the console, storage compartments, frame, and any plastic covers with a damp cloth (water or treadmill cleaner).

Pro Tip: Do not use an ammonia-based cleaner.

Monthly

The exact timing of this next step will depend a lot on how often you use your treadmill. If you are using it for hours every day or sharing it with other users, you may need to do this next step monthly.

After completing your normal wiping and vacuuming steps, open the motor hood. You will likely need a screwdriver to do so. Some motor hoods slide on and off, so be careful not to lift it up and break the plastic closure. With the motor hood open, vacuum any dirt or debris inside. Be careful not to interfere with the motor, drive belt, or electrical components inside.

Replace the motor hood when you are finished vacuuming.

It’s a good time to check the bolts and screws holding your treadmill together. Inspect these to ensure none have come loose, and tighten them if necessary.

If your treadmill sees heavy use, you can clean the treadmill belt.

Vacuum first, and then use a slightly damp mop or sponge to wipe off the belt. Run the treadmill at a slow speed to get the entire belt surface. If you don’t use your treadmill as often, this step may only be necessary every two to three months.

With the treadmill off, you can loosen the belt by turning the two bolts at the end of the deck counterclockwise.

When the belt is loose, you can use a paper towel or cloth to wipe off the deck beneath the belt. However, this will also remove the treadmill lubricant. You will need to reapply the treadmill lubricant as described in your treadmill manual. You can also check out our How to Lubricate Your Treadmill post.

How to Clean A Treadmill FAQs

What is the best way to clean a treadmill?

Wipe down your treadmill after every use to prevent the buildup of sweat and dirt. Use only manufacturer-approved cleaning agents, mild soap, or just water. Never use a saturated cloth or towel, but use a slightly damp one. Vacuum around and under the treadmill. Open the motor hood and vacuum inside the hood.

Can I wash my treadmill with water?

You can wipe the treadmill down with a damp cloth, but be careful not to use an overly saturated cloth or rag. You don’t want water or moisture to get inside the motor hood.

How to clean the belt on a treadmill?

Use a damp sponge or mop to clean the belt while it is running at a slow speed. Use only enough liquid to collect the dirt and debris. It should not drip or soak the belt. Avoid getting moisture into the motor hood.

What products can you use on a treadmill?

Consult your user manual for a manufacturer-approved list of cleaners. When in doubt, use only a damp cloth with water only or a diluted mild soap. Do not use ammonia-based cleaners. Use cleaners approved for electronics on the console and screen area. Do not use glass cleaner on touchscreens.

Life Fitness recommends 2XL Gym Wipes and PureGreen24 to clean their treadmills.

While I wish it weren’t the case, I have running regrets. There’s so much that I wish I knew when I started. I could have avoided injury and inconsistent performance. At least, I would like to think I could if I were better equipped.

Below you will find my top tips for new runners, created over years of trial and error and a formal education in exercise science.

1. Build Your Mileage Slowly and Consistently

When you first start running, your fitness and ability to run may be the most limiting factor. It will depend a lot on your current fitness level. If you are an avid cyclist or swimmer, you may be able to handle more running from a cardiovascular standpoint, but your legs may not be prepared yet.

I start most of my new runners off with run-walk programs, fifteen minutes in duration, three times per week. If you can only handle ten minutes of a run-walk program, that’s okay, too. You can make the walk segments as long as you need.

The 10% rule is often cited as the best method for increasing your mileage from week to week. However, you shouldn’t increase your mileage every week. Spend all the time you can at a low mileage. If that mileage is still challenging you, there’s no reason to increase your mileage further unless you have a specific goal, like a race.

2. Use Good Running Shoes Right Away

My latest running shoe favorite has been the New Balance Rebel v4.

You can’t run in your worn-out trainers or your casual shoes. No lifestyle shoes allowed. If you invest in one piece of equipment before you start running, invest in shoes. Try them on at a running shoes store, and if you find that they are too expensive for your budget, there are ways to get running shoes for less. Often, last year’s model will be more affordable than this year’s.

Proper running shoes will have the right support and fit for running, reducing your risk of injury and improving your comfort.

3. Choose a Training Method and Get to Know It Well

Runners track their daily and weekly training. It allows them to see the improvements and weaknesses in their training. Tracking your runs will help you increase your training load at an appropriate rate; that means increasing time or intensity.

There are several different ways to quantify training volume: mileage, time, and training load (a method that weights runs by intensity). Then, for tracking your training intensity, there’s pace, feel, RPE, heart rate, blood lactate, and power.

Instead of getting overwhelmed by all the options, pick a strategy and get to know it very well by using it. If you work with a coach, they will probably have a preferred method and guide you in using it.

I started with tracking my mileage and pace. That’s a really common place for new runners to start. I like using time and RPE for my new athletes nowadays. However, some of my athletes have pushed back because they have a method that motivates them more. Choosing the method that most interests you or aligns with your training plan is best.

4. Try Different Types of Running to Find What You Like the Most

While we really like treadmill running here at TRG, trail running has an exciting appeal.

Road running is fast. It is more popular among new runners because most races are road races. If you want to run a fast 5k or even a marathon, you’re probably going to be spending a lot of time on the road. Road running is also more accessible than other types of running.

Trail running is the best way to see the world, in my opinion. I love exploring new places by running and being rewarded for a long run with a beautiful view. If you find road running boring or hate the pressure to go fast, trail running is an excellent alternative.

Those are the two main types of running, but there’s also cross country, track, and treadmill running. The good news is that you don’t have to commit to just one type of running. You can enjoy multiple disciplines and distances within the same training plan. The most important part is simply finding what works for you and makes running worth it.

5. Discover What Motivates You

Don’t lose sight of what gets you running and keeps you running. Running can be what connects you to others online or in person. Joining a running group can keep you going. You could also be motivated by conquering new distances and improving upon PRs.

Give yourself the opportunity to incorporate more of what motivates you into your running routine.

6. Build a Well-Rounded Routine

Being a good runner isn’t all about running.

Running isn’t just about running. It can also come with a lot of heartbreak since runners get injured a lot. It’s almost impossible to completely avoid injury as a runner, but you can minimize it. Step one is to avoid running too much and to use different strategies for becoming a better runner. By this, I mean incorporate strength training and cross-training into your routine.

Becoming a better athlete overall can make you a better runner. Strength training can reduce your odds of muscle imbalance that leads to injury. Cross-training can help you develop your cardiovascular fitness without the impact of more running miles. They can also target parts of your fitness neglected by running.

Some of my favorite cross-training activities include cycling, pilates, swimming, and yoga.

7. Get Your Sleep and Diet in Order

Before you get enticed by the overwhelming number of recovery devices they make for running (many of which cost a prohibitive amount), get your sleep routine and diet in order. You will be better off getting an extra hour or two of sleep than buying those compression boots or a massage gun. Seriously, the nine to ten hours would be wonderful for your recovery from your training.

In regards to diet, I don’t mean getting restrictive or trying to lose weight. You might be doing those things, but when it comes to running, you also need to make sure you are fueling properly for your runs. That means eating enough carbohydrates to power your long runs and replacing them after your runs, too.

A balanced diet is important for becoming a stronger runner; this is a diet that includes carbohydrates, protein, and healthy fats.

8. Set a Goal

Sign up for a race or choose a less conventional goal to work toward.

The joy of running is not solely tied to running races. Neither is it tied to running as fast as you can. I encourage new runners to set goals, not necessarily to be competitive, but to give direction to their training.

I love hitting my goals in a race and achieving a new personal best. However, I also love running farther, conquering a hill that I’ve only walked up so far, and completing a workout perfectly. Smaller goals have kept my love of running alive for sixteen years, even when I failed at the harder goals.

Set small, attainable goals alongside any more lofty goals you may set.

The post 8 Tips for New Runners: From an Expert appeared first on Treadmill Review Guru.

In this post, I will cover all the benefits of walking so you can get inspired or stay motivated to walk regularly. Thirty minutes of walking per day is a great goal. Let’s learn more about why and how to do it most effectively.

Caloric Burn Rate

Many treadmills track your calorie burn, but remember, these estimates may not be entirely accurate.

Walking on a treadmill aids weight loss by helping you create a caloric deficit. A caloric deficit means you are consuming fewer calories than you burn per day. Keep in mind that there are tons of variables that will impact your exact calorie burn. Fitness trackers and equipment use different equations to estimate your calorie burn, but they may not be accurate.

During a thirty-minute walk, you could burn between 100 and 150 calories when walking around 2.5 miles per hour. This estimate uses the average weight of an American woman and man input into an equation for caloric expenditure. If you walk at a different speed, weigh more or less, or have a fast or slow metabolism, your calorie burn may be quite different.

Adding a 5% incline to your walk at 2.5 miles per hour takes the estimated calorie burn up to 200 calories or more. Alternatively, you can increase your speed. Walking at 4 miles per hour at a flat incline gives you an estimated calorie burn of 160 calories or more, depending on your weight.

As you lose weight, you will burn fewer calories. To continue to burn more calories, you will need to increase your speed, incline, or time spent walking. You can also add a weighted vest for an extra challenge.

Using our calorie estimates, we find that walking for thirty minutes every day can burn one to two pounds per month. Walking for an hour per day can burn over three pounds per month. If you keep this habit up for a year, you could lose twenty to forty pounds in one year from walking alone. (Note: a pound of fat is 3500 calories)

Walking Isn’t Enough

For the best weight loss results, consider more than just the amount of walking you do.

Though walking daily is great, it’s important to give your body a break when necessary. If you need to take a rest day every week to recover, that’s okay and important for your health. Walking isn’t the only factor in weight loss, and it may not be the most important factor either. There are many things you can do if you are taking an off day from your dedicated walking workouts.

You can keep your weight loss goals on track by eating a healthy diet. Nutrition is the most important component of weight loss. While the focus of this post isn’t on nutrition, this is an important principle to remember.

Strength and Cross Training

There are many other forms of cardio if you do not enjoy walking. Cycling, swimming, rowing, and using the elliptical are other options. All of these exercise options can lead to weight loss. You can also supplement your walking routine by incorporating these other activities on the days you don’t walk. This is called cross-training.

Cross-training allows you to work additional muscles or change the load on the muscles you are using. It is a great way to stay active, even when you are taking a break from walking.

Strength training is also a crucial component of weight loss, as building muscle mass can increase the number of calories you burn throughout the day and while walking. Add weight lifting into your routine two or three times a week for even better weight loss results.

Stress and Weight Loss

While strength training and walking will help you lose weight, it’s important to realize that you can’t choose where you lose that weight from. Many of us would like to burn belly fat first, but for many individuals, that isn’t what happens.

Belly fat can be hard to lose if you have high cortisol levels. Cortisol is a hormone released in your body due to stress. Regular exercise, such as strength training and walking, can help reduce your stress levels. This reduction in stress may help you lose belly fat over time.

Walking lowers stress and can improve your mood. It releases chemicals in your brain that make you feel good, which can improve symptoms of depression and anxiety. While starting a regular walking routine can feel daunting at first, it should feel good and boost self-esteem.

How to Implement a Walking Routine

A heart rate monitor can be a helpful tool for implementing an effective walking routine for weight loss.

To get the most out of walking, it’s important not to push yourself too hard too fast. If you are not currently exercising, you can start with short walks of five to ten minutes. Increase your walking time as your walks become more manageable.

It’s okay if walking feels challenging or makes you feel sore. Soreness (especially after walking on an incline) is normal. You can take a rest day or two if necessary, but try not to let more than two days pass to maintain a consistent walking routine.

If you are tracking the number of steps you walk per day, you can build up your fitness by increasing your daily step count by ten to twenty percent at a time. Make this increase every week to progress your fitness.

Heart Rate

Walking increases your heart rate. This is normal and nothing to be concerned about, as your heart rate needs to increase during exercise to bring more blood and oxygen to your muscles. Because your heart rate increases as your workout intensity increases, it’s a good measurement of workout intensity.

You can use your treadmill’s heart rate pulse grips or a heart rate monitor to track your heart rate.

To know that you are in the right heart rate zone, calculate your maximum heart rate. Subtract your age from 220. That’s a good estimate of your maximum heart rate. For example, if you are 40 years old, your maximum heart rate is around 180 beats per minute.

You don’t want to train at your maximum heart rate except in very specific circumstances. On most days, try to stay in Zone 2 for your heart rate. Zone 2 is 60 to 70% of your maximum heart rate. If you find that your heart rate tends to be in Zone 3 during your walks, that’s okay. It may lower as you become more fit.

For a 40-year-old with a maximum heart rate of 180, a Zone 2 heart rate is between 108 and 126 beats per minute. Zone 3 spans 127 to 144 heartbeats per minute for the same individual. It is 70 to 80% of your maximum heart rate. It’s okay if you end up training in this zone more often, but you want to at least be in Zone 2.

You should target Zone 2 because it improves your cardiovascular system. It is a higher effort than you would hit if you were walking around your home or office. But it is not too difficult.

When you work at a higher intensity than Zone 2, your body uses carbohydrates from your blood, muscles, and liver as energy. In Zone 2 or lower, your body uses mostly fat. Walking slowly may be more effective than walking fast for burning fat for this reason.

Walking in Zone 2 is particularly important if you are working out before breakfast or in a fasted state. If you walk at a higher intensity while in a fasted state, your body may burn more protein or muscle for fuel. This occurs when the body attempts to burn carbohydrates for fuel, but there are insufficient carbohydrate stores in the body to support exercise. Keep your exercise intensity lower if you are working out when fasted.

Zone 3 and Higher

Walking at a fast speed adds an extra challenge to your workout. Do faster walks after you have eaten a meal. Push into Zone 3 or 4 of your heart rate for fast, high-intensity intervals. Use incline or a higher speed to get into this harder zone. Harder workouts burn more calories. Even if your body uses more carbohydrates for fuel, it will still burn fat, too.

High-intensity workouts are essential for improving your cardiovascular fitness. Even if your goal is weight loss, you should still prioritize your whole body health.

Tips for Staying Consistent While Avoiding Injury

Working on your walking form and correctly warming up for each session can help you reduce your injury risk.

Improving your health can lead to better weight loss results. As you become more fit, you can walk for longer and faster, increasing your caloric burn. You will also need fewer rest days as you recover from workouts faster.

Growing stronger and fitter can lead to you feeling better, which can help you stick to an exercise routine. However, it is still important to rest, even as your fitness improves. Overtraining puts you at an increased risk of injury. Nothing derails a fitness routine or weight loss program like an injury.

Learn to listen to your body to tell the difference between general muscle soreness and injury. If something doesn’t feel right, rest and treat the injury. Whenever you feel pain that could prevent you from walking, you should always address the root cause in addition to resting. That will help you get back on your feet and into your routine faster!

If you have pain while walking, it’s important to ensure that you have the proper equipment as a first step. You shouldn’t use old shoes. Use fresh shoes that still have cushioning and support. Your shoes should be made for exercise, not casual shoes.

Gait Retraining

It’s also important to ensure that your walking form is correct. If you have a limited range of motion in your hips, knees, or ankles, it could cause you pain while walking. You could also see problems if you lack sufficient strength or balance.

If you suspect that you are struggling with one of these problems, it is best to consult a qualified specialist who can help you. A physical therapist, personal trainer, or coach can help correct your walking mechanics. Developing good walking form is important whether you are walking outside or inside.

Choosing a Treadmill

A manual treadmill is up to 40% harder than a motorized treadmill, increasing your calorie burn.

To walk at home, you may need a treadmill. A good walking treadmill will have a powerful motor (2.5 to 3.5 HP), a high weight capacity (300 lbs or more), and a long warranty. A treadmill with a 10-year frame and motor warranty or longer is best.

A good range of speed and incline features allows you to get more out of each walk and progress your fitness. A top speed of at least 4 miles per hour is best for walking for fitness. An incline of 10 to 12% is also helpful for adding intensity to your walks.

Walking on a treadmill is a low-impact activity. A treadmill is more cushioned than walking on the concrete outside, which could relieve pain in your joints. It’s also lower impact than running on the treadmill. Even if you plan to run once your fitness improves, walking is a good way to get started and puts you at a lower risk of injury.

Treadmill Training Content

As for training, some treadmills have built-in walking programs that will automatically adjust your speed and incline. These programs are great for beginners. They add variety to your training and keep you working at a good intensity.

Other treadmills have subscription programs that require a monthly payment to use. These programs are more complex. They provide better entertainment and coaching. Many of these services also have workout series that can help you progress your fitness over a few weeks. I recommend this training style for walkers who enjoy this type of content, have the budget for the monthly investment, and who could benefit from additional workout guidance.

How Much Should You Walk

A goal of walking for 30 minutes per day is a great goal. Even if you have to start with shorter walks, you can work up to 30 minutes. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends getting 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week. That’s five days of walking for 30 minutes per week.

If you want faster weight loss or more health benefits, targeting 200 to 400 minutes of exercise per week may be even better. This means walking for up to an hour seven days per week. You could also replace some of that walking time with cross-training to reduce your injury risk.

If you are tracking steps instead of minutes of walking, a common recommendation is 10,000 steps per day. While this is a great goal, you can also see benefits from walking fewer steps. Gradually increasing the number of steps you are taking from where you are at right now is okay. Try ten to twenty percent increases.

Walking ten thousand steps is about five miles. If you are walking at 2.5 miles per hour, this would take you two hours to complete. However, you don’t have to count only the number of steps you take during your workout. You can train on the treadmill for thirty minutes to an hour. The rest of your steps can be from your daily routine. If your regular routine does not require much walking, you may have to get creative to increase your step count.

Try taking mini walking breaks during the workday. Park further away from the store and other locations. Take the stairs instead of the elevator when possible. Under-desk treadmills can also be helpful if you are very busy and want to get some steps while you are working. Pair an under-desk treadmill with a standing desk to achieve your daily step goal. Use these tips to increase the amount you walk per day.

When to Schedule Your Walk

Walking first thing in the morning requires you to walk at a low intensity to target weight loss while in a fasted state. It can be a great way to start your day feeling energized. Walking after meals can be helpful for lowering your blood sugar.

Evening walks are also a good option. It can help you decompress after a stressful day. However, be sure to give yourself plenty of time between exercising and trying to go to sleep. Exercising too close to bed can leave you feeling restless.

Conclusion

Now that you know when to walk, what equipment you need, and how to upgrade your treadmill, you’re all set to start your walking weight loss journey. Remember that walking alone isn’t the key to successful weight loss. Incorporate strength training and improve your diet for the best (and fastest) results.

The post What 30 Minutes of Walking on a Treadmill Does For Weight Loss appeared first on Treadmill Review Guru.

Nutrition is Key

Walking is an excellent part of a weight loss routine, but the first thing you need to know is how important diet is. Even if you walk for eight hours per day, it’s possible not to lose a pound if your diet doesn’t support you.

To lose weight, you need to be in a caloric deficit, which means that you are burning more calories than you consume. This post does not cover diet advice, and I recommend consulting with a registered dietitian if you need help with meal planning. It’s one of the most crucial components of weight loss.

Walking and the Caloric Deficit

Remember that treadmill calorie trackers are not always the most accurate.

Walking can contribute to a caloric deficit, as every minute of exercise burns more calories than you would if you were sedentary. Being sedentary is time that you spend awake, but sitting or lying down. Essentially, any time you are relatively still.

Adding walking into your routine not only burns more calories but reduces the amount of time you spend sedentary.

Walking for 30 minutes burns between 100 and 200 calories. The exact number depends on factors such as your walking speed, incline grade, and metabolic rate. Your metabolic rate is the rate at which you burn calories. It is affected by a variety of factors, such as your age, weight, and body composition. For example, the more you weigh, the more calories you will burn per minute.

If you walk for 30 minutes per day and burn approximately 150 calories, you could burn 1,050 calories per week. If you keep that up for a whole year, you would burn over 15 lbs from walking alone. That’s 54,600 calories burned.

Walk for 1 hour, and you could burn 300 calories per day and over 100,000 calories in a single year. That’s 30 pounds of weight loss from just walking!

Remember that the less you weigh, the fewer calories you burn. That means to keep burning the same amount of calories throughout that year, you will need to progress your workouts.

For example, if your walks started at 3 miles per hour with a 5% grade, you will need to increase your incline or speed to maintain the same calorie burn. You can also increase the amount of time you spend walking to burn more calories. You could walk 4 miles per hour or at a 10% grade.

Walking Time

There are many factors to consider when deciding on the right walking duration.

Learn more about the appropriate time to spend walking, broken down by session and by week. Even if you have to start small, you can progress your walking time to achieve big goals.

Session Time

I recommend a starting goal of 30 minutes for walking, but that doesn’t mean your first few weeks of walking have to include 30-minute walking sessions.

For the sake of this example, consider a “walk” to be walking at a faster pace with the intention to exercise. I’m not talking about walking at a leisurely pace, as you might when getting ready for work or walking to your office.

If you don’t walk at all currently, begin with shorter bouts. Five to ten minutes of walking once or twice per day can be a good start if you have been sedentary so far. Add one to five minutes to your walking sessions as you become more comfortable with the amount of walking you can do.

Your walking sessions should challenge you. If you can complete your walking sessions without much difficulty, that’s a sign it’s time to increase the time of your walk. Your walks don’t have to feel intense the entire time, but you should feel like you are working, not entirely relaxed, at least by the last few minutes.

When you first start walking, you may only be able to do one or two sessions per week. To increase the amount of time you are walking per week, add in additional sessions as you can tolerate them.

It’s okay to feel sore or tired. Try to take no more than two rest days in a row to keep yourself motivated and consistent with your walking routine. As your fitness improves, you will be able to add more walking sessions.

Walking Intensity

The American College of Sports Medicine recommends that adults accumulate at least 150 minutes per week of moderate cardiovascular exercise. Let’s break down what that means.

150 minutes per week can be broken into six 25-minute sessions, five 30-minute sessions, or three 50-minute sessions. That leaves you at least one day of rest or more.

The ACSM prescribes a moderate intensity, which means walking at a harder intensity than you would naturally walk when moving around your house, the office, or a store. Ideally, your heart rate should be between 60 to 70% of your maximum heart rate.

You can calculate your maximum heart rate by subtracting your age from 220. That is a rough estimate of what your maximum heart rate should be. Then, multiply your maximum heart rate by .6 and .7 to get the range you want to target for your walking sessions.

Walking Even More

Walking is a great choice of cardiovascular exercise. It improves your heart and lung health. By walking regularly, your cardiovascular system will become more efficient at using and transporting oxygen, which is necessary for exercise. You’ll receive more benefits from your regular walking routine than just weight loss.

However, as your general fitness improves, this will allow you to spend more time exercising. 150 minutes is just the baseline for success. To see more weight loss benefits, I recommend walking for 200 minutes or more per week. It’s okay if that’s too much to manage when you first start out, but it’s a great goal to work towards over a few weeks or months.

If you would like to walk for an hour per day, you don’t have to do it all at once. You can spread your total walking time across multiple sessions. Try one session in the morning and one session in the evening. Each session should be 30 minutes long for a total of one hour. You could also walk for longer in one session than the other if that is more compatible with your schedule.

When To Walk

Breaking your total walking time into even smaller walking sessions is a great strategy. If you don’t have the time for a long session, try walking “snacks.” These are walking sessions that you take throughout the day to break up the time you spend sedentary. Six 10-minute walking sessions spread throughout the day can help you hit your 1-hour daily goal.

I recommend taking a walk break after each meal to aid digestion. These post-meal walks can also stabilize your blood sugar, reducing spikes. Regular walks spread out through the day can help you feel more energized and reduce the negative effects of sitting for a long period of time. These benefits to your overall health will aid weight loss by helping you feel more prepared for your next walk.

Using an Under-Desk Treadmill

An under-desk treadmill gives you the flexibility to walk while doing other tasks.

It’s not always possible to leave your desk to go for a walk. Instead, you can try an under-desk treadmill that allows you to increase your walking time while you are on the clock. Combine an under-desk treadmill with an adjustable height or standing desk to walk whenever you would like.

While it’s difficult to walk at the prescribed heart rate zone while working, an under-desk treadmill may allow you to increase your walking time. Many under-desk treadmill users walk for multiple hours per day at a slow pace.

Research has shown that walking at 1 mile per hour for eight hours was better than sitting, taking standing breaks, and standing all day. Walking for eight hours is not appropriate for beginners. I recommend starting with smaller walking breaks and slowly building up the amount of time you spend walking. With effort and consistency, you can walk all day if you want.

Walking Intensity

When adding up your walking time, it’s important to consider the amount of time you spend walking at a leisurely pace versus in Zone 2 or higher. If you do not have a heart rate monitor, you can also evaluate your walking sessions with RPE, rate of perceived exertion. RPE is measured on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the easiest effort and 10 being the hardest effort. A zone 2 workout should be between 3 and 4 on the RPE scale. Aim for 150 minutes per week in this zone or at a higher intensity.

What About Faster Walks or Steeper Inclines?

Speed can be a useful tool for increasing the intensity of your walks and getting more out of each session.

Spending time walking at a higher heart rate zone or RPE can further benefit your weight loss goals. If you don’t have the time to walk for 30 minutes to an hour, you can try HIIT workouts.

HIIT stands for high-intensity interval training. To do a HIIT workout, add 10 to 30-second intervals at a high intensity. You can also try longer intervals of 1 to 3 minutes, depending on your goals and the amount of time you have. A good strategy is to do interval workouts with different interval lengths throughout the week.

For example, try one HIIT session with short intervals under a minute and another session with intervals between 60 seconds and 3 minutes.

If you are currently walking for an hour per day in Zone 2 or at an RPE of 3 to 4, you could also benefit from adding intervals into your training. It is a great way to progress your fitness without having to increase the time you spend training. Add high-intensity intervals to one to three of your walking sessions per week.

High-intensity intervals are a great way to increase your caloric burn when walking. If you don’t have the time for 150 minutes of moderate intensity walking, you can also aim for 75 minutes of vigorous activity. This means walking at a heart rate between 70 and 85% of your maximum or an RPE of 5 to 8. Maybe 9, occasionally, if you are more experienced.

Ideally, you want to combine both moderate and vigorous walking into the same routine, meaning you should do some of both each week. When you are first starting out, you can do more of your walks at a vigorous pace. Walking may be too challenging to sustain at a lower heart rate or RPE.

As you progress, your vigorous walks should be about a quarter to one-third of your overall walking time. This does not count the total time you spend walking at an effort below Zone 2.

Slow Walking

Walking done below Zone 2 is still beneficial for weight loss and decreasing your time spent sedentary. It can decrease your risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

How do you know if you are walking too much?

There are many signs of overtraining that you should look out for.

• If you have stopped making progress in your weight loss or fitness despite increasing the intensity of your routine, it may be time to rest.
• Getting sick more often or becoming injured are also signs that you should decrease your training.
• If you have been walking regularly for weeks with success and suddenly feel overly tired or hesitant to do your daily walks, take a rest day.
• Low heart rate variability, as measured by your fitness tracker
• Poor sleep

To avoid falling out of a daily walking habit, plan your rest days out so that you know when to restart your program.

Conclusion

A walking routine can be as simple as three 10-minute sessions per day, or it can include walks that last an hour or more while you work at your desk. If you have less time to dedicate to walking, make your walking sessions more intense to boost your calorie burn and reap the most health benefits.

If you have a lot of time to walk, you can spend a lot of that time walking at any easy pace. Use increased speed and incline on the treadmill to add intensity to a few of your walks per week to prevent your routine from growing stagnant. Increasing the intensity of your walks over time will help you keep up with your weight loss goals as you become a more efficient walker.

Hopefully, you now feel equipped to start or continue your walking routine with the confidence that you are progressing toward your goals.

Why I Don’t Recommend Running Every Day

You can still pursue your weight loss, performance, and fitness goals effectively without running every single day.

Running every day does not give your body adequate time to rest and recover, though there are exceptions to this rule. There are people who have a running streak that has been going for years and years. Such a run streak is more doable if you only run an easy mile on the days you would otherwise use to rest. It’s difficult to manage if you run higher mileage.

Additionally, if you are running low mileage—say, less than fifteen miles per week—and you are generally fit, you can probably run every day without issue.

What is more important than running every single day is having a consistent running routine. I competed in college cross country and track. I qualified and ran the 2025 Boston Marathon while only running a maximum of five days per week.

I’ll admit that many runners of my caliber or better run six days a week. Some are even resting only one day out of every two weeks. However, if you are resting less than that, you are probably putting yourself at unnecessary risk of injury. It’s 100% possible to be a more competitive runner and only run four or five days per week.

If you run every day without rest, especially if you run for more than thirty minutes per day, you may not actually see many of the benefits we are about to discuss.

But if you are having a hard time sticking to a running schedule, maybe it’s a good idea to give yourself the opportunity to run every day. That means that sometimes you may not be able to convince yourself, but the next day is always an opportunity.

Some of you may have better success with that, but if you’ve been following that method without making any progress, try scheduling three to five runs per week on set days so that you already have your off days planned. Knowing you have a fixed schedule may help you commit to your running program.

So, what happens if you run regularly?

I’ve been running for over 15 years, and it’s changed and shaped my body in ways that aren’t necessarily visible.

Well, you reap massive benefits in terms of improving your aerobic fitness. This means you improve your body’s ability to use oxygen during exercise. You improve your heart health and circulation.

Running is very taxing, and it demands a lot from your muscles. When you run for thirty minutes, you take around 5,000 steps. That’s a lot of work for your muscles to do. Your heart has to be able to bring your blood, with enough oxygen, to those muscles, as it’s an essential part of the energy production and utilization process. Your heart and lungs have to grow stronger and more efficient to meet this need.

This process improves a measurement called VO2max. Your VO2max is the maximum amount of oxygen your body can use (in liters) per minute per kilogram of body weight. VO2max is a measure of cardiovascular fitness. It has also become an important measure of longevity, as low cardiovascular fitness is associated with an increased risk of disease and mortality.

How Running Affects Your Muscles

Running improves your muscular endurance. You have two main types of skeletal muscle fibers in your body: type I and type II. Type I is the type used the most during endurance running.

Type I muscle fibers are used for endurance and need oxygen to create energy. They have a high number of mitochondria (the powerhouses of the cell), allowing them to produce energy to sustain prolonged exercise.

The more you run, the more efficient these muscle fibers can become at energy production. This will improve your endurance, which increases the time it takes you to reach a fatigued state.

Weight Loss

Of course, regular exercise can also help with weight loss. A daily run can increase your caloric burn, helping you stay in a caloric deficit. A caloric deficit means you burn more calories than you consume. Exercise is a part of this equation, though nutrition is the most important aspect.

Hard runs can suppress your appetite, though, reducing the likelihood of overeating. This doesn’t work for every runner, as some runners find that their appetite increases with a higher training volume, so be aware of your particular needs.

How It Feels to Run

There are a lot of physiological benefits to running that you can’t see but assume are happening. What you might be able to feel is that your runs get easier. Running may feel miserable at first. Every step may be hard and challenging, but as your heart, lungs, and muscles adapt to your training habit, your runs will feel easier. These adaptations will allow you to run faster and farther to continue challenging yourself.

What to Do With Your New Fitness

If you’ve been running for a while, you can start making your running routine more complex and targeted. It’s time to put some of those helpful adaptations to use.

Racing

If you run regularly, you will be able to set goals, like racing a certain distance or hitting a certain time. Your treadmill runs may need to be planned out more carefully to hit certain goals, but even a simple daily run will help you make some progress.

Workouts

As a running coach, I recommend trying to incorporate different types of runs into your weekly routine to keep your running streak feeling fresh. A typical week of running should have a long run, an easy run, and a fast run (also called a workout). Your long run doesn’t have to be a certain distance to qualify as a long run. It just needs to challenge and improve your endurance. It should test your limits or, at least, maintain them.

An easy run helps you build your aerobic base. It builds your tolerance for running, your VO2max, and general fitness without being too taxing. Running may be too difficult, at first, for any run to be considered “easy,” but with time and consistency, you will get there.

Running workouts are a key ingredient in making the most of your treadmill runs. These runs, typically done one to three times per week, build your VO2 max, lactate threshold, speed, and more. Different types of workouts target different adaptations within your body.

An Example: Lactate Threshold Runs

Lactate is a byproduct of your body’s energy production during aerobic exercise, that’s exercise with plenty of oxygen available. Lactate is also a further source of energy. As your body produces lactate, it continues to use it as fuel, but at a certain point, your body can no longer keep up with the rate at which you are producing lactate. You end up producing more of it than you can use. This point is called your lactate threshold.

Training at your lactate threshold helps you to make your body more efficient at clearing lactate. It can also increase the speed at which it starts to accumulate. For instance, when you start training, you may hit your lactate threshold at 5.5 miles per hour, but as you train, it could increase to 7 miles per hour or even faster!

You want your lactate threshold to improve so that you can run at a faster pace without needing to slow down due to fatigue.

How Running on the Treadmill Differs from Training Outside

This blog post is specifically targeted at running on the treadmill every day, so let’s take a look at how that is different from running outside.

For one, having a treadmill at home that you can run on regularly makes getting consistent exercise even easier. Whether it’s blazing hot or hailing, you don’t have to worry because you can run indoors. Having a treadmill at home means you don’t have to leave the house to get your workout done. You just have to get dressed and put on your running shoes.

If you are looking for your perfect home treadmill, check out some of the best treadmills we have reviewed. Subscribe to our channel if you want more help building your fitness routine and finding the top equipment.

Cushioning

A treadmill provides a soft and smooth surface to land on, which is quite different from running on the pavement or on a rugged trail.

So, running on the treadmill is also different from running outside because you usually get better cushioning. Treadmills have shock absorbers that cushion your steps compared to running on concrete or asphalt. The cushioning can make running more comfortable, especially for beginners.

However, if you want to train for an outdoor race, I recommend adding a few outdoor workouts into your routine to let your body get used to the lack of cushioning out on the road.

Speed and Incline Control

Running on the treadmill allows you to control your speed and incline. Since you can control your speed, you can practice running at a consistent pace and progress the difficulty of your workouts over time. It eliminates other variables, like wind and temperature, that could slow you down (or even speed you up).

The incline feature on a treadmill allows you to take control of your incline grade. Those of you who live in a hilly area will appreciate the opportunity to run fast on a flat course. While those of you who live in flat areas can add hills to your training for the increased calorie burn and a harder challenge, without having to drive to find a suitable route.

Air Resistance

When you run on a treadmill every day, you are not exposed to air resistance. Some running coaches will advise you to increase your treadmill incline to 1% to make your run harder, similar to what you would experience with more air resistance. As a treadmill expert, I find that most treadmills are already inclined to about 1% when flat, so you don’t have to add incline.

The Dangers of Never Taking a Rest Day

You should supplement your running routine with mobility, strength, and rest for the best performance results.

While consistent running with rest days can improve your health and fitness, running without rest days can lead to a higher risk of injury, a compromised immune system, and decreased performance. When you exercise, the majority of the benefits you gain are created during your recovery from that exercise. You need adequate sleep and nutrition, too.

The trick to running consistently and reaping the most benefits is striking a balance between the amount of running and rest. If you are unsure what the right balance is, a fitness tracker, a free training plan, or a running coach can all help you find the right balance.

If you find it hard to run consistently, you probably aren’t in danger of overdoing it. This advice is for those of you who are already running every day and may need more rest. Not wanting to run isn’t necessarily a sign that you are doing too much. It could just be a sign that you are lacking the motivation to exercise. Be honest with yourself about the true underlying reason you want to skip your run.

Conclusion

When you run on the treadmill every day, or nearly every day, you are making a considerable investment in your health and well-being. You’ve joined a global community of runners who have a variety of goals, from losing weight to racing a marathon. It doesn’t matter how fast you run or the total mileage. You can call yourself a runner!

Running on the treadmill is not something limited to a specific age group, but something you can do for decades. Whether you are about to start your first run or your thousandth, here’s to continuing to pursue greater fitness and faster PRs!

Black Friday & Cyber Monday Elliptical Frequently Asked Questions

Where Is The Best Place To Buy An Elliptical?

There are a number of good places to buy an elliptical. Retailers like Amazon and Dicks Sporting Goods offer a number of good ellipticals. But we would recommend buying an elliptical straight from the manufacturer.

Often, this is the best place to find a deal and get the best customer service. We have also found that the warranty is honored best through the manufacturer instead of a retailer.

What Brand Of Elliptical Is Best?

NordicTrack, Sole, ProForm, Bowflex, Horizon, and other brands all have great elliptical options that will work perfectly in your home or garage gym. One of our favorite ellipticals is the X16 from NordicTrack. But if you are looking for a more traditional elliptical machine, we also love options from Sole.
