Treadmill Walk

What It Is

Walking on a moving belt, the gentlest way to raise your heart rate and build stamina, whatever the weather.

How to Do It

Clip the safety key to your clothes and start slow. Walk at the pace your coach set. Easy means you can chat freely, and brisk means you can talk in short sentences but not sing. Raise the speed or the incline to reach the heart rate your coach asked for.

Tips

Look ahead, not down at your feet. Touch the rails only for balance, not to lean on.

Skill Level

Novice. Everyday movements on a stable base. Safe to learn on day one.

Type

Cardio. Raises your heart rate to build endurance and heart health.

Engagement

Unilateral (Alternating). Each rep alternates between sides.
