A Treadmill to me is an intense cardio workout system that can be used in a daily workout routine, but where did it originate from? Introduced in 1817 by Sir William Cubit it was used as a method of reforming offenders in prison and was termed treadwheels on which the prisoners walked between 6,600 ft and 17,00 ft during a 10 hour day.
In 1952 Dr. Robert Bruce along with Wayne Quinton while at the University of Washington designed a treadmill to diagnose heart and lung disease. Later in 1968 a report published by Dr. Kenneth Cooper showed the benefits of aerobic exercise and gave the public a medical argument for the commercial development of the home treadmill.
