Walking for Low-Impact Exercise:
Walking on a treadmill is a great low-impact workout, ideal for beginners, those recovering from injuries, or anyone looking to stay active without stressing joints.

You can adjust the speed (typically 2-4 mph) and incline (0-5%) to increase intensity. For example, incline walking mimics uphill hiking, engaging glutes and hamstrings while boosting calorie burn (up to 200-400 calories per hour, depending on speed and incline).

Use it for steady-state cardio to improve heart health or as a warm-up/cool-down for other workouts.
