Treadmill Safety

Here are some more treadmill tips. Don't walk on it backwards or sideways, Most treadmills have a safety button that you can use to stop it immediately if it gets away from you. Increase the speed slowly so you won't have to use it. Set your treadmill at 1% elevation to get a similar exertion as running/walking outside at the same speed on the flat. If you spend eough time on the treadmill to work up a sweat, set up a fan to blow across the machine. And drink your water.
