Treadmill

1. Setup: Adjust the treadmill to your desired speed and incline. Stand on the side rails, and attach the safety clip to your clothing.
2. Grip: Hold onto the handrails as you step onto the treadmill belt.
3. Starting Position: Start the treadmill at a slow walking pace. Once you feel stable, let go of the handrails and begin walking.
4. Execution: Gradually increase the speed to your desired running pace. Run with a natural stride, keeping your back straight, core engaged, and arms swinging naturally by your sides.
5. Return: As you finish your run, gradually decrease the speed to a walking pace to cool down. Once the treadmill slows down, carefully step back onto the side rails and stop the machine.
