What is the best way to use a treadmill for effective weight loss? Please let me know the method.

I remember a time when I blindly ran on the treadmill, only to end up with knee pain and giving up quickly; it was a total waste of effort. The secret to success is not just running, but aligning your movement with your body's state—specifically the flow of 'Qi' (vital energy) as described in Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM). First, for those in a state of 'Bi-Heo' (Spleen Deficiency), characterized by poor digestion and low energy, excessive exertion can lead to rapid exhaustion and a feeling of heaviness. For these individuals, starting with a low incline and a slow walking pace to promote overall circulation is the priority. On the other hand, those with an accumulation of 'Dam-Eum' (phlegm-fluid retention)—where the body feels heavy due to waste products and unnecessary fluids—benefit from sweating at a moderate intensity. An interval approach, such as [2 minutes of brisk walking + 1 minute of slow walking], is more effective for discharging these internal waste products. Finally, for those with 'Eo-Hyeol' (blood stasis), where blood circulation is stagnant, I recommend light stretching followed by using a gentle incline to gradually increase the heart rate rather than sudden sprinting. Ultimately, the core principle is to start at a level your body can realistically handle. If you feel excessively dizzy or breathless during exercise, stop and regulate your breathing. If you would like to precisely understand your current state and adjust your exercise volume accordingly, visiting the clinic for a constitution diagnosis is highly recommended.
