Smooth Fitness TreadMill Journey: The Inclines Knocked Me Out!

So I’ve been trying to workout as much as I can on my Smooth Fitness Treadmill and while yes getting the motivation to do it daily is a task for me sometimes, I know the benefits are worth it.

All that aside even with music to distract me I still get a little bored walking for fifteen to thirty minutes at a time so when Tye another #SmoothBlogger told me that the inclines could drastically reduce the time you have to walk and burn more calories quicker I had to try it.

OMG! Why did I do that? Apparently I held the incline button a little to long and it must have went to the highest incline it could possibly reach because I literally felt like I was walking up an extremely steep hill. Luckily if you use the incline feature it has close to 6 different incline levels which is great for people like me with bad knees.  I only did this for ten minutes and I kid you not I burned close to 50 calories and was pouring sweat. That may not seem like a lot but it is considering at normal walking pace on the treadmill it takes much longer to do so. As soon as I was done it was a wrap for me and to my surprise I was asleep at 9:30PM , which is definitely not the norm for me.

Hence my title “Inclines Knocked Me Out”!

Don’t forget to check out the cool military discount Smooth Fitness offers to military (just by calling in) and they also ship to APO/FPO. As usual they get much kudos from me for doing that!
