It's really simple. In order to go forward, the wheels have to roll or slide along the ground. What else, teleport?

Our ideal treadmill allows no sliding. And it matches the wheels' rolling in the opposite direction.
that is not possible.

go to a sporting good store or your garage

find a roller skate or blade

put a hand in it, and with your other hand move the wheels

is your hand in the skate pulled by the wheels?

or are you just making the wheels spin?

and.. your free hand is the conveyor
