On treadmill? People keep saying on treadmill is easier... But i always felt like i ran faster on treadmill, even BP higher. But comfort wise, treadmill is 10 times better. A bit boring tho.
i used to go on a treadmill in my local gym. it was so boring, small tv screen without sound or you had to plug wired headphones or just listen to your own music (airpods in my case). people walking by looking at you,distracting, no fresh air, smelling your and other peoples sweat… it got so boring running for an hour just standing in one place. cancelled my membership and did go for outside runs, the best thing you can do truly. fresh air, new routes, meet other people. run in rain, snow, without shirt on on hot days. in the woods, along the highway. i love running especially in cold weather or rain
I don't like running outdoors because of cars, bikes, pedestrians, animals, bugs, inclement weather, it's a long walk back if I have any issues, etc. The treadmill is just a simple option for me.
Still try running outside from time to time. Choose times with less people around like in th early morning or evening. Choose a short route that you can extend or fit to your needs. Long sleeve and anti bug help as well.
I really like the treadmill for time trial to check if I am ready for a race. Want to run a sub 20 5k? Set the treadmill to 1 degree incline, a speed of 15 km/h, and hold it for 20 minutes. If you can do that, you are ready to run a sub 20 5K, you just need to learn to pace yourself in the race and throw in the final kick.
I don't have access to a treadmill currently, so running outdoor is my only option and I actually prefer that; I love being in the sun and the breeze, lucky for me, it's sunlight all year round, except if you don't mind the occasional rain. Also, for me as an easily demotivated person, I have to run outside, this way I have no choice but to continue the run until I reach home because usually one gets tired in the middle of a run, whereas on a treadmill, I feel like I'd get lazy and stop whenever I want since I don't actually have to go anywhere, so I might not have the survival need to return home. That said, I do wish I own a treadmill, this way I can also force myself to run a certain speed, whereas running outside I can slow down my run when I get tired. Both have pros and cons, as you've mentioned, I think the most important thing is to exercise no matter which one is being used.
I have ran both on treadmill and as well outside, how much I run in treadmill is not always same that of running outside, I could endure less distance when running outside
The trick is to get one of those smaller towels, and fold it like a hot dog. Then do one more fold, and wrap it around your neck, so it looks like the cancer sign. Then just zip up a jacket around that. It will keep your lungs nice and toasty. Boxers have been doing it for decades. It should be close to three feet long at least to work well.
Love running outdoors but as you get older you notice the toll it can take on your joints and skin esp with the sun. I sweat a lot so no amount of sunscreen can help protect my skin. Therefore running on treadmill is a lot more simple and convenient esp when you can save time not having to prep for running outside!
I prefer running outside in the harsh weather, helps me get my miles in properly. Personally I don't want that treadmill bs, but that's personal choice so u do u. Stay Hard 💪🏻
What I’ve heard is that for muscle growth and the development of muscular endurance running with an incline is all that helps you on a treadmill as it allows you to push off the ground, at least somewhat otherwise running outside is optimal for muscle development in the legs and feet
IMO treadmill is better at keeping you paced when running at your limit. Its better for monitoring performance because it’s essentially a lab environment with fewer variables. Also close to water and toilet. Downsides: unrealistic, flat floor and worse views.
I prefer running outdoors principally because i can set where i want to go, it's less exhausting, it helps with muscle tone and i can feel "the breeze" (wind coming at me so i know i'm running), and best of all, it's absolutely free.
Because on the treadmill, you don’t get as much liberty to push off the ground where as outside you, essentially hop foot to foot pressing off the ground with each step (it’s because you’re strong😂)
@@xavierromaniuk3253 Thanks I was extremely confused I was doing 4:15 per kilometre and on treadmill I had a hard time to keep that pace even over 5 min per km
I don't know what treadmill you use but my gym has Matrix treadmills. Something is off with them. I have ran outside for months so I know what my heart rate is for certain paces. I normally run 10, 11 minute miles outside. I'm at a 13 minute pace on the treadmill but it just feels so hard but my heart rate is 135-140 and my garmin watch says I'm running 10, 11 minute miles. I know that treadmill is wrong. I slowed it down to 14 minute miles and my watch said 11:30/mile. All I know is I go by time and heart rate

I like the treadmill sometimes because it gives me a nice steady pace but nothing beats running outside
I agree with this because I love running but sometimes I run to fast or to slow and the treadmill gives me control
Yeah nothing beats..running outside
Pros of Treadmill:
Consistent tracking of MPH/KPH
No need for stoppage(no crossing streets and stuff)
Can watch videos hands-free
Definitely feel this man, was trying a progression run today & got to about 6:30/mile & it felt more like 6:00/mile. Real tough workout.

@ I find treadmill running tougher. Must be something in the way I run.

I want to listen to audio books without worrying about my sweat freezing me to death or being robbed.
Then u should come in kashmir india brother I will welcome you here myself zubair n I'm doing what u mention in ur brief comment❤

I always love running outside but have been using treadmill recently for the softer impact on the joints
Definitely interesting info. Thanks for this! You've gotten me inspired to run again! Keep up the good work!

Treadmill are fun to me great for tempo and long runs. Too many people out there complain about a tool that has stood the test of time.
I have ran both on treadmill and as well outside, how much I run in treadmill is not always same that of running outside,
I could endure less distance when running outside
This is good to hear, suddenly hit a running phase finally, but the cold air doesn’t agree with my lungs.

Yes. Running at 8 mph on treadmill my HR is always in 130s. Outside at same speed, usually sits high 140s

I try to do both and I did find treadmill easier, but running outside is the real way to go
I ran a 5k outside recently with an average of just over 8:30/mile (or 7mph). I could not do that on a treamill lol
I prefer the treadmill - fewer distractions. ♥️
i try to run in threadmill, is so hard compare outside like my pace in thredmill is between 5:00 to 4.30 in outsite is basicly 4:30 until 3:00
The air quality and heat build up will likely increase the effort towards VOmax. So you can keep the incline
i can go longer at easier paces on treadmill compared to outdoors
I love my treadmill I set it on %3 incline and a tv in front and CD player next to me
Treadmill is harder because of the suspension plus the fact that there is no fresh air to inhale and cool you down
You're missing a key point,
Running on a treadmill =
Cushioned surface which is a lot easier on joints.
Why am I slower on the treadmill ??

Treadmill is much easier on your knees and joints than concrete.
Do trail running its much better
@@matt-oq7kb no hiking trails in my part of Michigan only concrete slabbed nature trails through wooded areas..sounds like it would be perfect though
Incline Treadmill is really awesome to increase your VO2 Max 🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️
Running outside always when not possible due to weather treadmill
I train on treadmill 2% inc. Race day my pace is always much faster than training.
Outside win all day every day except rainy day
People need to learn how to run on the ball of their feet and not on their heels.
You don’t look like you have ever ran before
