Before he even gets to that, why not figure out what the load from the
washer and the treadmill are together. There may not even be a
problem. Or alternatively, don't use the treadmill when the washer is
running.

Well, yeah, that should be plan A. Heck, shouldn't even have to calculate --
exercise while running the washer and dryer, and if the breaker trips, then move
onto plan B (with the cheapest plan B being "don't run the treadmill while doing
the laundry"). If you just gotta run the treadie while doing the laundry,
then a 50' high-capacity outdoor extension cord isn't all that expensive.
