The best gym exercise machines and how to use them


1. Treadmill


As the poster machine for any cardiovascular gym exercise, the treadmill is one machine that¡¯s seen as a must-have for any gym for beginners. Treadmill workouts seem like a cakewalk that burns minimal calories? Here are tips on how to use the Electric Treadmill effectively to shed those calories.






How to:


Setting an incline ¨C While you could just set the incline to zero and walk on a flat surface, doing so would be counterproductive since the treadmill¡¯s belt propels you forward. This would make your workout less effective than walking outside.


Safety ¨C Avoid grabbing onto handrails or plodding your feet on the treadmill! Since a Mechanical Treadmill use is meant to mimic outdoor runs, the last thing you¡¯ll want is a workout that¡¯ll ruin your actual running form. Ultimately, an improper form could result in problems like weakened ankle muscles or knee pain. The right running shoes will also help with absorbing shock and making your run more comfortable.


Tuning in ¨C Distract yourself from the monotony of a static surrounding with some music! Equip yourself with quality wireless earphones and conquer any run to the cadence of your favorite workout playlist.






2. Exercise bike


Don¡¯t like running? Exercise Bikes are a fantastic alternative to burning calories! As the second most popular cardio exercise at the gym for beginners and pros alike, many exercise bike users also appreciate how it¡¯s less strenuous on your joints and lower back compared to running. Operation is also easy enough ¡ª simply strap on and peddle away! There are two types of exercise bikes you¡¯ll commonly see in the gym: upright bikes and recumbent bikes.






Upright bike:


Upright Spinning Bikes are closer to traditional bicycles as the pedals are positioned under your body and have a saddle-like seat. This forces you to activate your core muscles as you sit upright and adopt a healthy spinal posture.






Recumbent bike:


Recumbent bikes allow you to sit back in a reclined position as the pedals are ahead of your body. The larger seat also makes the workout more comfortable since you won¡¯t be facing the issue of saddle discomfort. This allows users to go for longer cycling sessions since there¡¯ll be less upper body and core muscle soreness.
