Re: For girls who use treadmill
I do between 4.0 and 4.5, sometimes a little grade. I think it all depends on your own stride length and level of fitness (HR response). You should never be gasping for air, should be able to hold a conversation.

Re: For girls who use treadmill
For some reason, the most I can do is 3.3. My calves start to kill. It is not that I am overexerting myself, but my calves start throbbing - shin splints

Re: For girls who use treadmill
At first I was able to go 4.0 on the treadmill. Now, at 8 months pg, I can only manage around a 3 due to the extra weight and swollen ankles.

Re: For girls who use treadmill
3.8 to 4.0 - Anything above 4.0 and I am doing a light jog. My calves were killing me too so I switched to the elliptical cross trainer.

Re: For girls who use treadmill
I've been taking it very slow b/c I've been getting frequent dizzy spells. I keep it at 3.0. Before getting pg I walked at 4.0 and jogged in intervals, but I get dizzy so easily, falling is probably worse than slowing down a bit.
