Workout of the Week November 16th, 2009


Hey guys!

Another fabulous treadmill workout. Again, only 30 minutes. You don't need to go for an hour. As a matter of fact you will get more benefit going shorter and harder. You don't need to workout longer, just more efficiently.

After 3-5 minute warm up.

Take around 3 minutes to find a comfortable pace (walking OR running).

Here's the interval sequence:

2 minutes at 6% incline
1 minute at 0% incline
90 seconds at 8% incline
1 minute at 0% incline
60 seconds at 10% incline
1 minute at 0% incline
30 seconds at 12% incline
1 minute at 0% incline

Repeat the entire sequence again.
Recover at 0% incline and then slow your speed to a very comfortable walk.
Lower speed to a 1 on the treadmill and walk backward for at least 1 minute.
Hop off the treadmill and stretch hamstrings, quads, hips and calves.

Now reap the benefits of a hard workout because you are burning 6X more fat and your metabolism has been raised for the next 24-48 hours. Then you can repeat it again and continue on that fat burning track.
