Running on a Treadmill May Not Duplicate Running on Ground | Lean and Mean

Running on a Treadmill May Not Duplicate Running on Ground | Lean and Mean: "Subjects systematically planted their feet in a flatter position on the treadmill than overground. Most of the lower extremity kinematic variables, however, showed inconsistent trends for individual subjects, depending on the individual subject’s running style, running speed, and shoe/treadmill situation. The differences were substantial. It is not-yet understood how the human locomotor system adapts to a particular treadmill running situation."

Elliptical Trainers | Low Impact Cardio and Muscle Endurance Training

Elliptical Trainers | Low Impact Cardio and Muscle Endurance Training: "The motion and impact of running on a treadmill or on the pavement increases bone density, strengthen tendons, and builds muscle. An elliptical trainer, by design, does not duplicate the treadmill running motion and is not as effective in this regard. School is still out on the exact amount of impact that is beneficial or when impact may become harmful."
