An electric treadmill includes a motor and a motor driving circuit. The motor driving circuit is operable to control electric current flow from a positive electrode through the motor to a negative electrode to drive the motor. The motor driving circuit has a switch path connected between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The switch path has a resistance element and a switch element connected in series. When the motor driving circuit receives power from the external power source, the switch element will automatically switch to an open state so that the resistance element is inactive; and when the motor driving circuit does not receive power from the external power source, the switch element will automatically switch to an closed state so that the resistance element is operated to provide a resistive load for stopping rotation of the endless belt.

An electric treadmill includes a motor and a motor driving circuit. The motor driving circuit is operable to control electric current flow from a positive electrode through the motor to a negative electrode to drive the motor. The motor driving circuit has a switch path connected between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The switch path has a resistance element and a switch element connected in series. When the motor driving circuit receives power, the switch element will be switched to a disconnected state, so that the resistance element is inactive. When the motor driving circuit does not receive power, the switch element will be switched to a connected state, so that the resistance element becomes a load between the positive electrode and the negative electrode for consuming power generated by the motor when the endless belt is driven to rotate by an external force.
