American Flyer treadmill challenge

[Slothbroth]

Anyone interested to see how long they can survive the treadmill challenge?

Treadmill starts at 1.5mph, 15% (max) incline. Every minute, you raise the speed 0.5 mph until failure. No holding the front or sides.

Who can last the longest?

Spoiler

I will complete the challenge in the next week and post my results. Hoping to break 10 minutes

They had incline treadmills in 1985?

I guess so. Pretty sure Drago was running on one in Rocky IV

I lasted until 8:44, max speed of 5.5mph

Looks like they did, but only in soviet russia in a secret lab in Moscow where a bunch of suits clap while watching dudes workout and administer turinabol.

8:55 tonight after weights. I told myself that I was going to make it to 10 minutes no matter what but every second is agony after the 6-7 minute mark. I'm sure some lighter guy can post a better time than me but I feel like it's decent for me weighing 215.
