Today, treadmills have entered thousands of households. Not only many people use treadmills in the gym, but also many people choose to use treadmills at home to exercise. Especially for busy office workers, the treadmill is a good fitness partner that saves time and trouble. According to statistics, about 50,000 people are injured every year due to the use of treadmills, fitness balls, dumbbells and other fitness equipment, among which the proportion of injuries caused by treadmills accounts for the vast majority.

Therefore, the use of treadmills also requires certain skills to avoid harm to the body and achieve better fitness results. Treadmills are easily damaged, mainly due to improper use. Common misunderstandings are as follows:

1. Run without warming up.

Running fast at first is easy to cause self-injury, such as knee joint and ankle joint injury, muscle strain and dizziness. Therefore, you need to warm up properly before running. Warm-up activities should be carried out before pedaling. Leg press, squatting, stretching muscles, flexion and extension joints can all increase the temperature of muscles and make them softer. After getting on the treadmill, you should start with "dynamic" warm-up such as walking and jogging, and gradually increase the amount of exercise. This process usually takes | 0-5 | minutes. Finally, you should slow down gradually when you get off the treadmill to avoid dizziness.

Auxiliary functions of treadmill:

Mobile APP function. Users can select training videos on the mobile APP to learn sports training such as warm-up before running and stretching after running.

2. The time is too long

Running time is not as long as possible. Setting the running time according to your own goals can effectively achieve the fitness effect. For example, fat reduction training, running time should be about 30-50 minutes, and fat reduction is transformed according to the metabolic function of the human body. In less than 30 minutes, the sugar in the human body is consumed; 30-60 minutes, the body fat is consumed; More than 60 minutes, the human body will consume protein. Therefore, if the purpose is to lose weight, the exercise time should not be too short or too long, and 40 minutes is appropriate.

Auxiliary functions of treadmill:

Treadmill automatically performs functions. When the user wants to run, the running plan will be sent to the treadmill for automatic execution, which not only allows the user to complete the running plan more efficiently, but also is convenient and fast.

3. Excessive exercise

To use a treadmill, you must first understand your exercise limit, and then choose the exercise intensity according to your exercise goal. If the physical strength can't keep up, and the set speed is too fast, it will easily lead to the situation that the rhythm can't keep up, which will lead to the consequences of falling and breathlessness. This is a common problem for beginners.

In addition, many people think that the higher the slope of the treadmill, the greater the activity and the greater the difficulty, but this is not good. Generally speaking, for people who exercise normally or lose fat, the slope is horizontal. Because the slope setting is too high, it is easy to cause the triceps of the calf to be too tight, which leads to incorrect force. After a long time, it will increase the thickness of the calf.

Auxiliary functions of treadmill:

Exclusive running plan. According to the user's age, height, weight and dynamic test data, tailor-made exclusive running plan for users can enable users to achieve fitness goals more scientifically and efficiently.

4. Hold the handle while running.

Treadmill users are advised not to run by hand. Only when slowing down can you hold the handle to slow down and play an auxiliary role. If you hold the handle all the time, the center of the human body will lean forward, which will cause great pressure on the position of knee joint, ankle joint and lumbar spine, reduce self-coordination and easily cause injury. So when you exercise on the treadmill, you must standardize your running posture.

Treadmill should be used properly to have fitness effect! Of course, choosing the right treadmill can also effectively avoid some misunderstandings and unnecessary sports injuries. For example, the runner's intelligent treadmill has the treadmill function recommended above to help users run more scientifically.

In addition, many people like to watch videos when running, and if they are not careful, they will distract themselves and cause injuries, especially those who are unfamiliar with treadmill operation and have high exercise intensity.
