When you buy a treadmill workout, what do you look for?

[WormwoodScrubs]

When you do a treadmill workout (whether it be audio only or video), what do you look for? Intensity, instruction, lack of instruction, music, etc? I will soon be inheriting my mother-in-law's treadmill and am looking to purchase some treadmill workouts but I feel super green.

I've heard about BBC, Cardio Coach, an iTrain - but I want to know what to look for and what to avoid.

Thanks in advance for any and all advice!

Hello Marcia,
I just started running on the treadmilllast year and have been using Coach Troy's Runervals. I've really enjoyed them and I can't believe how much faster I can now run. These are all DVDs which you can get at runervals.com or even at advancedworkouts.com.

I use my own music or I use the iTreads with Grace. I have found that my speed has really increased using the iTread. I guess it kind of depends on what you are looking to do. Are you already a runner?
