Incline
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The incline feature of your treadmill can make your exercise more difficult and can increase the amount of calories you burn. The incline also challenges various muscle groups within your thighs.

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you're new to walking on the treadmill, start at a low incline, and work your way up. Once you're confident with your walking method, try increasing the incline to as high as 3 or 4 percent. Keep an eye on your heart rate and pay attention to your body's rhythm during the workout.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A slight incline can be added to your running routine to help prepare for outdoor running while reducing the impact on your joints. An increase in the incline of your treadmill will cause your feet to hit the ground at a less gradual angle, which decreases the impact and stress on your knees. This is why many world-class trainers incorporate the incline into their clients' treadmill workouts.

|
|
||||||
|
In addition to increasing calorie burn, incline walking helps to tone and strengthen the muscles in your legs, including your glutes, quads, and the hamstrings. It's a great exercise for beginners looking to add the variety of their cardio routines and prepare for outdoor running.

|
|
||||||
|
If you're new to treadmill incline exercises, it's recommended to begin with a low incline, such as 2%, and gradually increase it until you are able to walk at a rapid pace without grabbing onto the handrails. A higher gradient will be more difficult and require your legs to work harder to propel you uphill against gravity. To avoid injury and overexertion it is important to monitor your heart rate and drink plenty of water throughout your workout.

Cushioning
|

|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
