Is treadmill walking as good as outdoor walking?

Trying to find a long enough extension cable and dragging the treamill all around the neighborhood is such a pain. Best to leave it in the basement and walk indoors.

outdoor walks win hands down....

for so many reasons ....

escape ...being #1

My exercise bike makes a great clothes hanger. 😬

🤔.........I'd say yes. Maybe better since you can adjust the speed. It all comes down to what type of surface your walking on and the shoes you're wearing. Walking is good for a person. Running is the best exercise for burning calories, but the worst exercise because it's high impact on you body. it's hard on your joints..........Before my heart condition and I was in great shape, I mean I was thinking about training to compete in a 1/2 Iron Man. I ran out doors and I use to run all the on the treadmill. Turn on the Avalanche game and run an entire period, Take a break during intermission and then back on the treadmill for another period.........

It might be as good physically but it isn't nearly as nice as walking outside. I love walking on a rail trail near here and I'm eager to be able to do that again.

As long as it gets your heart rate going, should be the same. The practical matter is whether you would use it more than actually walking outside.

I like treadmill walking at lunch time and walking outdoors after work. If it’s rainy and miserable I walk and type or walk and watch on the treadmill. I generally listen to podcasts and type when walking after work.

Why wouldn't it be? Exercise is exercise wherever it is done. If you have one in your home, on privacy, some say exercising nude actually burns more calories.

No, but it's still exercise. 😊🌺

Is washing your feet with your socks on as good as washing them when they're off???

Idk but I prefer it because I can stay in the AC while walking. 😌

How many city sidewalks have been recalled

No. You get to improve your memory and cognition skills by outside exercise.

no it hurts my feet more!

It's not bad and you can utilize the incline for more muscle action

Depends on the weather!

Yes

For exercise yes...for the brain...no.

Usually, no. The day one gets run over by a bus is different.

I reckon no - because it’s bloody boring…
What do you think?

I’ve used it as a substitute during bad weather, and you don’t have to worry about crowds or traffic.
But being outside is more fun.

It has advantages during bad weather.
