Weight loss through treadmill walking is entirely possible by tailoring the intensity and duration to your specific body constitution. In Traditional Korean Medicine (TKM), constitutions are often categorized into types such as Yin Deficiency (陰虛), Spleen Deficiency (脾虛), and Phlegm-Fluid accumulation (痰飮). Those with Yin Deficiency benefit from low-intensity walking over excessive aerobic strain; those with Spleen Deficiency should increase their workload gradually; and those with Phlegm-Fluid accumulation find it more effective to increase aerobic intensity using the treadmill's incline. 1. Prioritize duration over speed initially: Maintain a pace 0.5–1.0 km/h slower than your target for 20–30 minutes. This is critical for those with Spleen Deficiency, as overexertion can lead to chronic fatigue. 2. Increase intensity using the incline: Setting the incline to 3–5% increases caloric expenditure significantly while reducing the impact and strain on the knees. 3. Maintain a consistent routine 4–5 times per week: Following the TKM principle of 'Sun-gi' (循序), which emphasizes gradual progress and order, it is better to exercise consistently every other day than to overwork yourself daily. 4. Post-exercise hydration and stretching: Drink lukewarm water instead of cold water to avoid blocking the flow of Qi and perform 5 minutes of stretching to prevent muscle tension. Please note that exercise alone may not be sufficient for significant weight loss; dietary management tailored to your constitution is essential.
