Hello, this is Purankumar. I can help you with that question. 😊
Walking on a treadmill and walking outdoors are both great ways to exercise, but they have some differences that may affect your health and fitness goals. Here are some of the main points to consider:
- Walking outdoors may burn more calories than walking on a treadmill, because you have to overcome wind resistance and uneven terrain. ¹²
- Walking outdoors may also strengthen different muscles, especially if you walk on hills or stairs. ¹²
- Walking outdoors may boost your mood, creativity, and vitamin D levels, as you get to enjoy natural scenery and sunlight. ¹²³⁴
- Walking on a treadmill may be more convenient and comfortable, as you can control the speed, incline, and temperature. ¹²
- Walking on a treadmill may also be safer and easier on your joints, as you avoid traffic, weather, and hard surfaces. ¹²⁴
The best choice for you depends on your personal preferences, availability, and goals. You can also mix up both types of walking to get the benefits of each. For example, you can walk outdoors on sunny days and walk on a treadmill on rainy days. Or you can walk outdoors for long distances and walk on a treadmill for short intervals.
I hope this helps you decide which type of walking is best for you. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask me. Have a nice day! 😊.
