Does jogging on the treadmill help in burning calories and thereby help in reducing weight?

I jog for between 15 to 20 minutes on a treadmill about 4 times a week. I have noticed that i do not run out of breath or stamina after this workout. I stop only because the leg muscles start paining.

However when i jog on the ground, i run out of breath after jogging for about 4- 5 minutes.

Is it just psychological or is there really a difference between jogging in a treadmill and jogging in a ground?

Which is more effective when it comes to burning calories and losing weight?

Does jogging on the treadmill help in burning calories and thereby help in reducing weight?
A group of volunteers at the Milwaukee Veterans Administration Hospital did a series of workouts on different machines, each time exercising at what felt like the same intensity. Researchers used a special device to measure the number of calories burned. "The treadmill allowed the individuals to burn as much as 200 calories per hour more than the bicycle ergometer, which came out having the lowest energy expenditure," said Dr. Martin Hoffman of the Medical College of Wisconsin.



The average medium-intensity treadmill workout burned 700 calories per hour, compared to just 500 calories per hour on the exercise bike. Hoffman said one reason for the difference is the amount of muscle mass that is used in both exercises.



Burning calories is a great benefit of treadmill exercise, but it's not the only reason to consider this type of workout. Walking has been found to be an excellent form of exercise for people with certain health conditions, such as osteoporosis, hypertension and back pain. For these individuals, as well as those of us who aren't crazy about going to a gym, the flexibility of a treadmill can be very exciting. Further, a treadmill adds consistency to your walking workout because many models allow you to maintain speed and intensity throughout your entire workout.



Finally, if you are just looking to get in shape, walking or jogging on a treadmill improves muscle tone all over your body. Strengthened muscles means the heart can pump more oxygen-rich blood with each step you take.
