If the answer is yes than take advantage of some of the great sales currently available on home fitness equipment, treadmills and crosstrainers.
Here some advise on proper warm up techniques before you start your treadmill running routine.
Actively warm up – backwards. A progressive walking warm up will bridge the gap from a resting state to running putting less stress on the body. Start easy for the first minute, then continue to dial up the walking speed every minute until you're just under the running threshold. After two minutes of brisk walking, carefully turn around and walk backwards for 15-20 seconds. Alternate forward and backward walking for two minutes (15/15). It will open your hips and better prepare your body for the running workout ahead. |
