Treadmill - The Best Form of Cardio Exercise

Exercise - you know it's good for you and every home should have a space where you can undertake this activity. Maybe you can't quite run to a full-scale home gym, but you can at least find room for a folding treadmill. Running on a treadmill every day will give you all the exercise you need for a basic fitness program.

You may think that you do not need to purchase an expensive piece of equipment and that you can do all your running outside in the fresh air. That's all very well in suitable weather conditions, but what about when there's snow on the ground? Running in snow or icy conditions is downright dangerous and could lead to a serious injury. Equally running in the heat of a swelteringly hot day can lead to heat exhaustion. Even moderate weather can be off-putting - who enjoys running in the pouring rain? For all these reasons you should seriously consider buying a treadmill so that whatever the weather you will always be able to run in perfect conditions.

There are a number of things to consider when buying a treadmill and there is a new site which tells you what to look for and reviews a number of different models. Do take a look at Best Treadmills Info
