TO TREADMILL OR NOT

While  I decide whether to buy a treadmill or not, I do my "walks" inside my home.
Whenever I cannot walk outside, I place a high-back chair fronting
the  TV, drop a plastic (not rubber) mat on the floor behind it, put my hands at
each  end of the top of the chair to keep balance (not really necessary) and stand on the mat to begin 
"walking" as I would in any treadmill, maintaining the speed I can tolerate.
The  mat will allow the feet to slide as necessary and I can start/stop the
exercise  at will. I measure my progress either by counting the minutes or the
number of  (leg) strides. I also do the "walk" by bending the knees as if I were
marching.  I find this a terrific stationary walk when other means are not
possible. The  above is provided not as an advice but only to share my
experience. For those  with health or other issues , please consult your doctor
before trying this  exercise. PS. I ride a bike but that depends on the weather.
