Most of the runners will not want to sweat on the treadmill if the outside air is bright. However, not a few who would rather stay in the house and ran on the treadmill. However, the treadmill has become a calorie burner that can be used in any weather.
Actually, both running on a treadmill or running outdoors both have great benefits for fitness and heart health. Even so, there are some differences between the two.
Treadmill
1. Adjust the inclination
Without making changes to the treadmill, running this tool is easier than running outdoors or on a level road. The biggest difference is the ribbon machine moving under our feet so that we do not need to push the body forward when planted on the ground. Thus, the energy released by the body when running on a treadmill is lower than running outdoors. To equate, naikknya inclination or slope of the treadmill to one percent.

2. Absorption shock
This treadmill technology is very advanced now than when the tool is newly discovered in the late 60s. In addition to measuring the heart rate and the slope of the regulator, the treadmill is also equipped with shock-absorbing features. This feature can reduce the effect of the blow on the joints of the runner. One of the treadmill manufacturer also claims capable of absorbing the shock force of up to 30 percent.
3. Specify the field running
The principal advantage running on a treadmill is an environment that can be controlled. We do not need to fear the wind, heat, or rain. We can also choose the terrain. Another plus is that the speed can be adjusted and easily monitored.
4. Straddling weather
Very dear when you are excited for the sport, but the heavy rain or scorching heat. Not to mention air pollution. Running on the treadmill will dispel all these obstacles.
5. Recovery injury
The treadmill can be a top choice if you are recovering from an injury and want to keep exercising. "The treadmill is suitable for rehabilitation because most treadmill is equipped with a spring," said Keith McDonald sports coach.
This spring along with the shock absorber will reduce friction joints. But actually ran in the grass also has the same effect of the shock absorber.
6. Make a treadmill workout more enjoyable
Users tend to run on the treadmill at a constant rate. Keith McDonald advised to make a run interval. For example, change the speed every 30 seconds, from running, sprinting, or running uphill. Interval training not only burns more calories, also good for cardiovascular fitness.
Running outdoors
1. varied terrain
When running outside the house, you will find more scenery and terrain variations: asphalt roads, grass, jogging track, or even the beach. Running with diverse terrain pose a different sensation and also have a smaller risk of injury compared to running on the same surface.
2. not bored
Have you saturated constantly running on a treadmill? Time to change the atmosphere. While in the outside environment, the senses will be stimulated. Cross paths with other people, smell the fresh air, and hear the sound of the wind. These things can not be found when running on a treadmill. However, beware of vehicular traffic.
3. Suitable for those wishing to join the race
If you routinely run a marathon race to follow, do not get used to using the treadmill. "When you want to compete, you have to learn the terrain and adjust to the situation during the race," said Hannah Schultz, sports performance coach.
4 Practicing set speed
When running on a treadmill we determine its own speed and the machine will force us to run at that speed until the engine begins to slow down the tape. Unfortunately, it does not help us to set the pace when running outside. Not easy to run at the same speed for 2 kilometers mileage, for example. If you want to follow the race, such as how to exercise on a treadmill is not recommended.
5. differences in run
You may feel different styles when you run on a treadmill and running outdoors. When in fact no different. According to research featured in the Journal of Applied Biomechanics in 2010, there was no significant difference in the kinematic (movement pattern) runners on the hips, knees, and heels.
6. Train the different legs
Too often run on the treadmill can cause injury due to the use of certain parts of the same foot constantly.
When you run outside, you will find a different field. "Your feet will always adjust to the terrain you tread," said Schultz. On the climbs, glutes and hamstrings muscles will work harder. Another moment derivatives, muscular thighs are better trained. Running on the same surface in the long term can lead to imbalance. To work around this, do the variations running outdoors.
7. combination
The best type is the type of run that you enjoy most. If you do not love your sport, then it is likely not to greater discipline. You can also do a combination of running on the treadmill and run outdoors.
