1. Stay calm and try to regain your balance. Do not panic and flail your arms or legs, as this could cause you to fall further and injure yourself.
2. If you cannot regain your balance, tuck your head and neck and curl up into a ball. This will help to protect your head and spine.
3. Roll off of the treadmill as soon as possible. This will help to prevent you from being further injured by the treadmill.
4. Once you are off of the treadmill, lie still for a few minutes to recover. Check yourself for injuries, and if you have any pain, swelling, or dizziness, seek medical attention.
Here are some additional tips for preventing falls on a treadmill:
* Start slowly and gradually increase your speed. This will help you to get used to the treadmill's movement and reduce your risk of falling.
* Keep your feet close to the treadmill belt. This will help to prevent your feet from slipping.
* Hold on to the handrails if you feel unsteady. This will help you to keep your balance.
* Be aware of your surroundings and avoid distractions. This will help you to avoid obstacles and stay focused on your workout.
