My treadmill is about 4 Years old everytime I or my girls stand on it while its running of course the belt will slow down untill its at a complete stop. However once you get of the belt it runs fine at all of the levels with no problem as long as no ones standing on it. I thought I had maybe gained to much weight but my daughters only weigh 112 pounds at the most. Please help!

Apparently earths gravitational pull has increased, this is due to a significant rise in people frequenting fast food outlets, & this effect is more noticable in areas where obese people congregate, i.e - mcdonalds, outsize clothing stores, 4x4 dealers etc..
..or possibly the electric motor on your treadmill has seen the last of it's days, 4 years aint bad i s'pose.
