Ever used a treadmill? I have on many occasions. Actually, it’s my favorite exercise equipment in the gym, by a long way. It’s simple to use yet you can add or supplement your exercise regime in several ways with a treadmill.

I used to increase both the speed and the angle of the footboard, and then try to burn as many calories as I could in as short a time as I could. My only concern was that it was a little tedious, so I tried to limit the amount of time on the machine to about 20 minutes or so. But I did manage to burn nearly 500 calories on the machine in that time!

Pity, those candy bars that I bought on the way home were so calorie-filled!
