[@GoodMirez]

I been walking on a treadmill at 3 speed and 11 incline for 45-55 minutes for a year, last January I was 309 and today I’m around 205-210

[@Fitnessdy]

Hey hey, excellent job! Congratulations

[@fb1473]

Keep up the GREAT work...hard work and dedication pays!

[@reginawilliams6473]

Congratulations!

[@neverthelesshereiam4167]

Great jobI I just started and I'm 198lbs I going on speed 4 and 0 incline

[@slowzu512]

How much time you walk each time???

[@mucho160]

Nothing like a treadmill. It provides natural & different range of movements. I love lifting weights & resistance training but the treadmill is my Capital like Cardio.

[@May-May1888]

I just ordered my treadmill today, can't wait to use it, I want to do at least 15mins 3-4 times a day

[@Fitnessdy]

Hey, good luck! That's an awesome plan to squeeze more activity through the day!

[@May-May1888]

@@Fitnessdy yes thank you it's the best way for me and build it up from there, bit by bit

[@anoshya]

I’m a 71 year old male My blood pressure was 140/95. It’s now 120/72. The reason is that I do the gym everyday and really push myself on the treadmill. Get GP advice however before you start a course at the gym..been going to the gym for 15 years..I had to be very disciplined but it’s very addictive too as you sleep better and feel generally good mentally

[@Fitnessdy]

This comment is gold. You really hit the nail on the head by condensing everything people need to know about running on the treadmill in a few lines, whereas I tend to rant. Thanks for sharing and awesime job on your progress! 💪💪💪

[@radicaseymour3664]

I have been walking every day for two months for an hour I didn't loose weight but my body looks great toning up I am not giving up will continue till I start to loose weight

[@Fitnessdy]

Keep it up, sure :) walking is extremely healthy. You can always try holding onto light weights or squeezing your legs, abs, and arms to burn more calories. Also, walking can increase our appetites, so you should keep that in mind as well :)

[@tiab9918]

This makes me feel less motivated I thought it would make u lose weight

[@Zannons]

Update?

[@sagarsadabhaukhot1342]

For weight loss only treadmill is not important control your food consumption also

[@soldierblac1573]

Every morning for 30 minutes. Thanks for the great information.

[@Fitnessdy]

Yesss, I love walking on the treadmill too. I was skeptical at first, but it feels completely different than walking on pavement :) and I do believe you get toned faster

[@juliebartholomew3278]

That's great, I walk on my threadmill for 30 mins every morning

[@sporty05]

I try to get 30 mins a day on our new treadmill, been at it for 2 months now. Best investment I've made. Working from home and sit in front of a computer all day takes its toll

[@Fitnessdy]

Yes, I know exactly what you mean. I only use the treadmill at the gym, but each time winter rolls around, I want to get one for home use 😀

[@shariedwards6325]

I walk on my treadmill 65 minutes every day. I love it.

[@Fitnessdy]

Amazing! I have a (silly) question. How come you're doing 65 minutes and not 60?

[@cherubimcherubim9515]

I do 15 mins in the morning, 15 mins afternoon, 25 mins in evening. Speed 5.2 km per hr. Will increase speed n walk longer n add jogging a min n walk 4 mins.

[@Fitnessdy]

That sounds great! It keeps you active throughout the day too! :)

[@sandrasmith-dickens2339]

I lost 15 ponds and my tights looks bomb shell people eyes go straight to my hips and legs ❤

[@andysahadeo4256]

A week ago I got my first threadmill. So hoping all works out.. it's very expensive here I only want to lose weight keep fit.

[@feefs2139]

You got it bro in sha Allah 💪🏾

[@aros007z]

Awesomeness

[@ilesiasteward6680]

I walk 5 to 6 times a week , I’m trying to loose weight is that ok

[@Purppusay]

I walk 5 to 6 days a week anywhere between 20 minutes to an hour. I’m over three hundred pounds. I have ankle pain foot pain and a arthritic knee. But I walk past the pain walk at my own pace and take one day of rest to heal the pain. I started at 347 I’m now at 346. But honestly it’s my eating. I have to get my eating in order. But stick with it I love walking it’s just painful for me at times but I want to lose this weight. I also do seated chair workouts when the pain is too much. It a guy that does them here on KZbin.

[@howardtucker7958]

I’m 78 yrs old and have always kept active, but my Dad told me that push-always are easier than push-ups. You must have a passion to lose weight now matter how you go about it. I wish you all the success you desire in your journey.

[@Shon9tilR]

@@PurppusayHow are you doing now?

[@Purppusay]

@@Shon9tilR still walking. I’m up to 7 miles now and actually tomorrow I’m working on walking 8 miles my current weight is 262

[@IFIXCASTLES]

My right leg and my treadmill saved my life...😊😊😊

[@Fitnessdy]

Hugs! ♥️

[@CaliTexan]

Is walking on the treadmill for over 2 hours too long? Because mine is a few months old and it shuts off by itself due to overheating. I even checked for any dust around the motor and didnt find any. I also used extra oil lubrication under the belt and it still shuts off on its own when I go over two hours.

[@antisocialgamer1599]

10k steps is around 100 minutes according to a google search.

[@ilyal5712]

My gym treadmill stops after 1 hour. It is technical limitation. Then it restarts during 1 munute and you could walk again.

[@Fitnessdy]

Depending on the treadmill quality, it might get overused if you're walking for over two hours on it :) I would also argue that it's better from a purely fitness standpoint to walk less, but more frequently throughout the day

[@Zannons]

I just started yesterday. I did 41 minutes for both sessions 😅

[@Fitnessdy]

Good! How did you feel after? 🙂

[@Zannons]

@@Fitnessdy really sweaty… & hopeful. Thanks for the video

[@redrock1965]

I try and do any hour every day if I can not at least 30mins,,I did try running but just too much walking I found a lot better I am 58

[@harrietmahloane1715]

I am on the 2nd week now. I burn 300 calories doing speed 5.5 with 4 incline for 1 hr. Just walking. I really enjoy it. I also control my diet. I started st 106kg and i am now down to 98kg. My target is 80kg God help me

[@Fitnessdy]

That's really good actually! Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work :)

[@Lara.Naim207]

Thank you for the video, i walk approximately 50 to 60 min in a day is it healthy to be long walk like not devided between morning and afternoon? I star my walk on speed 2 and then increase it till 4 How much the number of heartbeat it should be for my age 19? , Thanks

[@Fitnessdy]

You're very young, so a 60-minute walk will not be dangerous for you (unless you have preexisting health issues), as long as you also try to stay active during the rest of the day. That's really important for your bones and posture, because sitting all day will ruin them. So, as for the heartbeat, it depends on your goals and how hard you want to train. You'll find a great calculator that allows you to play with different targets here: heartonline.org.au/resources/calculators/target-heart-rate-calculator

[@Lara.Naim207]

@@Fitnessdy Thanks for your respond, no im in a good health but yes im sitting all the time using mobile or laptop and i just do some on the treadmill in a day just like not to feel im sitting all the time doing nothing but i started working on sport exercises too.

[@Lee-p7g7n]

Everytime I go to gym I always have one hr for treadmill

[@Fitnessdy]

Absolutely get it 😀

[@nani71517]

Can you please suggest some good shoes for walking on the treadmill for obese people?

[@Fitnessdy]

I don't have any models in mind, but look for extra cushioning and an ergonomic midsole to protect your knees and ankles

[@JL-nv3zm]

Brooks

[@dessiecoder2116]

Brooks for any feet is awesome! Got my first pair and WOW what a difference. My feet have room!

[@reneebrody5877]

I actually like the width and cushion of Hoka and New Balance

[@SusieHallTX]

[@anuradhareddy5799]

I do treadmill at 6 speed at 3 incline for 20 minutes for 1 year and haven’t lost a pound

[@Fitnessdy]

If you’ve been doing the same treadmill routine at 6 speed, 3 incline for a year without seeing weight loss, your body may have adapted to it. Weight loss often requires a mix of intensity and variation. Try adding intervals, increasing speed or incline, or mixing in strength training to challenge your body. Also, make sure to check your diet, as nutrition plays a huge role in weight loss. Small changes can make a big difference! Let me know if you’d like help with a new plan!

I try to do 3 times a week for 1 hour

[@Fitnessdy]

That's a good plan. How are you feeling so far?

[@boronin10]

My doc told me to walk 5 miles a day for a week i called him said hay doc im 35 miles from home can you come pic me up.

[@Fitnessdy]

🤣🤣🤣

[@AcshualSnotski]

Did you guys know that treadmills let you walk indoors? 😲

[@Fitnessdy]

😅 thanks for calling me out

[@Nelly_Vision]

Getting a treadmill has been a good investment so far. For the days it’s too hot or you don’t feel like going out it’s great Try to do 30 minutes a day least

[@Fitnessdy]

That's 100% true, I don't feel like exercising every day and that's when I rely on my (very tiny) home gym aka dumbbells and mat 😅

[@lesimalek3153]

❤😂😂😂😂
