Weird that the treadmill is at room temperature while the room is frigid.

…I live in Texas

Basement room, so it’s cool.


I thought people were crazy for wanting room temp water when I lived in Florida. Why would you want 80 degree water, lol



I wonder how much of the heat coming from the treadmill is electrical and how much of it is biological

Neither is a major source of heat here, most of this is friction, the running mat drags against a static surface and with the weight of a human on it it has a LOT of friction and that generates heat.

Also, regularly lubricate your treadmills if you want any durability.



I’d say that all of the yellow on the tread is friction from running on it


Probably friction from the fact that it has to constantly slide while being pressed into the plate under the tread with the force of an adult human.


Neither. It’s friction.



Seems a bit warm, time for a lube?


I spent way too long looking for Saddam Hussein. Lemmy, you have ruined me.
