The purpose of this idea is to eliminate the need for an actual
conventional treadmill. Although an inclined surface is
probably needed, that is the only similarity to a conventional
treadmill.
This idea is for a shoe attachment, which includes wheels
lining most of the bottom of the shoe.
People would just walk
and walk.
Another option exists for eliminating the need for an inclined
surface: include motors and batteries. This would be a motor-
driven pair of roller skates, permanently in reverse. It would
be programable for set distances and speeds like a regular
treadmill.
Benefits include: less power consumption, less space taken for
treadmill, you can take it with you (portability).
I'm starting to hear my dreams. time to go to sleep.

parking spot when they go to the gym. |

Inclined? Inclined to what? They're in free-fall. |

Not if they're accelerating. Or if someone has recently farted in a specific direction, mind you. Anyways, the reverse rollerskating version isn't going to save as much energy, I think. Also, the design is going to have to be impressive. People shift forces in numerous directions when they walk, allowing for a number of potential angles with which to gain momentum. Your wheels will have to be on pivots, or resemble those cool vacuum cleaner balls where the thing rolls on a big ball rather than wheels. Anyways, it's almost baked by rollerblades. |

Oh hey, funny joke I heard the other day: What's the hardest part about rollerblading?...
Telling your parents that you're gay.
And I heard that from a gay man so I'm pretty sure I can say it too, right? |

Hey, I rollerblade and my wife rollerblades, does that mean our daughter will be gay too? |
|
| |
is that "daughter" or " "daughter" " ?
