    Don't think it would work too well on a standard treadmill. But where I used to go to physio had a skating treadmill ... that looked like a blast!

    That does NOT seem like a safe form of cardio. Awesome question though. I dont think the belt is wide enough on most treadmills.

    I do it all of the time.

    Of course, I no longer have any teeth, I constantly have two black eyes, and my nose has been permanently smashed up against my face... but hey, it's fun when you can stay on your feet.

    Yeah, it sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. Unless you have something like the picture wobbspsfl posted. I can just imagine someone trying on a regular treadmill and ending up looking like Mythbusters' Adam Savage when he tried running on a treadmill while drunk (you know, for science :laugh:)


    But I'm in for the gifs and pictures that should ensue… :wink:

    Oh boy, that would be a recipe for me either breaking my neck or my tail bone, 50-50 odds, either way...

    Well actually even though the premise of this thread sounds like a recipe for a kick-*kitten* gif, my partner does roller-derby which requires you changing your bearings often and even though they are not roller-blades they are quad skates, it is actually a technique some derby girls use to break in the bearings.

    So yes I have seen something similar done in RL but honestly looks batsh8t crazy and I wouldn't recommend it...My partner can skate like the devil but I am still waiting for her to face plant.

    It is one of those "Don't try this at home kids!" but if you do have the camera ready:devil: :devil:

    I'm assuming this is a joke since it is in the Chit-Chat section, or rather, I hope this is a joke. :tongue:

    And the cheats way would be hold on and point the blades straight! Or is that more like water skiing? :)
