Tradmill or road

[New Jack]

Is running the treadmill just as beneficial as running on the road or a track. My boxing coach says the treadmill is nowhere near as good.

What about in the cold weather and in the wind and rain, would running the treadmill be better than running in those condition?

I prefer running on a track outdoors.

I acctually LOVE running and sleepin gin ice cold weather. Very good for your body.

I find the treadmill to be easier on the knees, plus I can watch tv while I'm doing it, I find jogging/running on a track or the road to be painfully boring.

If you can go outside it would be better than treadmill

but it is too cold or when it's raining treadmills are usefull

BTW you can check your speed, calories expenses.... and have a look at TV or nice chicks

My boxing coach says the treadmill is nowhere near as good.

He probably said that because when you're outside you have to face hills and wind resistance, etc.,

You can make up for these things (partially) on a treadmill by adjusting the incline (if possible) and setting the speed slightly faster than you would normally run outside

....the important thing is just to do your cardio. Can I get a hell yeah?
