Gottschall and Kram (2004) mounted a force treadmill on wedges of varying inclines and found that compared to level running, the initial impact peak was decreased at 3, 6, and 9 degrees of inline. They also found that the braking parallel GRF was absent at 9 degrees of incline in addition to a 75% increase in the propulsive parallel GRF. [ 8 ]
My every-other-day workout is walking three miles, fast, on a high incline on the treadmill—often times with hand weights too. Let me tell you: I'm a puddle of sweat by the end, even though I ...
