If the winter weather has you running indoors on the treadmill be sure to compensate for the lack of wind resistance by setting the treadmill to a 1 or 2 percent incline. You can also simulate downhill running by lowering the treadmill to a negative incline and replicate the ups and downs of rolling hills by adjusting the speed and incline settings. Playing with the features and settings on the treadmill to mimic an outdoor run will work different muscles in your legs making you stronger and better prepared for when you take your workout outside again.
