What is the difference between indoor running and outdoor running? Which one is easier to stick to?

In fact, the difference is quite big.

Indoor running is divided into "circling in a limited indoor environment" and "running on an indoor treadmill", so these two will be discussed separately.

Let’s talk about outdoor running first:

The environment is changeable, including roads, grasslands, playgrounds, altitudes, and is affected by weather. But a good thing is that when you run, there will be wind, and the sky is huge, so there will be no sense of oppression, which will make you feel comfortable;

It is greatly affected by the environment. It’s not easy to run in rainy and snowy days. Running at high altitude is very painful, and running alone outdoors at night is a bit scary;

But the effect of exercise is the best, because of these changing factors. So that you can get as much exercise as possible.

Let’s talk about indoor running:

“Go in circles in a limited indoor environment”

If your living room or balcony is small, you need to keep turning back and forth Or go around in circles. You won’t be able to go fast like this. In addition, if the indoor ventilation is not good, it will be even more uncomfortable, so it is recommended to maintain ventilation and be patient;

If your home is large , the living room of the villa has a standard plastic runway of 200 meters or even 400 meters, and there is central air conditioning to maintain constant temperature and humidity. There is also a British butler to help you deliver towels and supplies, and maybe there is a beautiful maid to love you. Cheer up, cheer and applaud... First of all, just pretend that I didn’t say, let’s make friends, shall we?

"Run on an indoor treadmill"

Treadmills are boring. Good treadmills have a certain amount of cushioning and are very stable to run at; cheaper ones may run at a slower pace. If you hurry up, it will start to shake, and at the same time, the people downstairs will come up and knock on the door;

The tracks of the treadmill automatically roll backwards, which means that running on the treadmill does not require a back pedal force. Therefore, it can save effort in disguise;

However, you will not feel the natural wind when running on a treadmill, so it is recommended to equip a fan and maintain indoor ventilation;

In order to simulate outdoor conditions environment, it is recommended to adjust the slope of the treadmill to 1-2 degrees, which can better simulate the outdoor environment while protecting your knees.

To sum up, the difference is quite big. If possible, you can go for a run on outdoor dirt roads, grass and plastic tracks. They are well cushioned and comfortable. When the external environment is poor or you are not allowed to go out, Treadmills are the best option.
