Quick test session on treadmill at the gym
chris-uk just finished a 0.54km virtualrun, that lasted for 4 minutes.
This virtualrun helped chris-uk burn 31.5 calories.
Description from Strava: I recently signed up to a new gym as it had just opened and was a tiny bit closer to my house and seeing as it was cheaper, way bigger and more enticing than my current gym I didn't hesitate when switching.
I don't really do treadmills much as the gym I'm always weightlifting but when I noticed that all the cardio machines had TV screens on them I was intrigued. I soon learnt that I could do many things on these treadmills such as watch TV, immerse myself in a run through new York or other places in the world and lastly do fitness tests.
The treadmills seem to connect to your phone so it seems you don't need a fitness watch to track activity though sometimes it doesn't save the workout and unfortunately out of 2 treadmill workouts in the gym on different days only this one saved.
So despite it being cool I still need to invest in a fitness watch just to back myself up or even be my main tracker overall.
It was also my first run in forever so this test is a little shocking on my behalf but with these very modern machines I could have cardio in my workout routines more often.
