Treadmill: From Torcher device to fitness craze! #shorts

Did you know that the treadmill was once an instrument of torture? Invented by William Cubitt, the treadwheel was designed for prisons, forcing inmates to walk for hours on a daunting wheel with 24 steps. With a daily requirement of over 16,000 feet—more than half the height of Everest—it was grueling, often more exhausting than working in a mine. By 1902, this inhumane punishment was abolished. Today, the treadmill has transformed into a popular fitness tool, showcasing the incredible evolution of exercise equipment. Join us as we uncover this fascinating history!
