Do you want to run on the treadmill? Or just kick it in place?
Running on a treadmill is different from running on the ground. They are very different, mainly including:

First, the intensity of running is different.

1, running on the treadmill

Running on the treadmill is not a complete running. Instead of kicking and stepping forward when the foot touches the ground, it relies on the conveyor belt of the treadmill to send the foot to the back, then lifts the foot in the air to make a parabolic motion, and then falls on the conveyor belt to repeat, but running on the ground is different. Running on the ground is not only like stepping in the air, but also requires kicking and stepping forward when your feet land. This is the most tiring action of running. This action is to bounce the weight of the whole body forward, which is the key to running and the action that consumes the most calories in the whole running process, but running on the treadmill does not have this action. This is one of the main reasons why running on the treadmill is easier than running on the ground.

Step 2 run on the ground

Second, the running resistance is different. Running on the treadmill belongs to running in situ. It has no air resistance when the object moves forward, but running on the ground is different. Will be affected by various wind directions such as downwind and headwind. When running with the wind, you will feel more relaxed, and when running against the wind, you will feel more tired, but running on the treadmill has no such effect. This is the second difference between running on a treadmill and running on the ground.

3, long-distance running

Third, the two kinds of running consume different calories. Because running on the ground is much harder than running on the treadmill, running on the ground consumes more calories than running on the treadmill even if running for the same time and distance, which is why running on the ground is more tiring and has better effect than running on the treadmill. The above three points are the main differences between running on treadmill and running on the ground. Knowing this, you can know more clearly what level of your endurance is, so as to better grasp your amount of exercise every time, adjust your training plan in time as needed, and make greater progress.
