This blog post is for those of you who choose the treadmill as your primary fitness tool.
There is a very nice treadmill work out that you will be interested in working out. It is the Tread and Shred workout that will spice up your treadmill time and also work out your whole body. It is a 45-minute workout incorporating short spells of high-intensity work with rest periods which results in burning calories for hours after your workout. As a form of cardio exercise, using a treadmill is a great way of burning calories and losing weight.
This tread and shed workout normally consists of interval training using treadmill cardio rounds for 60 minutes gradually increasing your running intervals. This will include sprints, hill climbs, intervals, and intervals of specific strength and agility training off the treadmill. Similar to the ladder workouts, these challenges even the most experienced runners. It will assure you to enjoy exercising because you will easily adjust speeds to your comfort level. Starting with a warm-up walking or jogging then continue running at a fast pace then slow down to a recovery pace. Again, make sure that when you are running fast you are pushing yourself but not feeling like you are going all out. Keep increasing your running intervals depending on your fitness level which eventually you will do the same process backward and finish with a cool down.
This workout is amazing because of the level of difficulty peaks in the middle of the workout, so it gets easier at the end. One thing sure this workout will get you gasping and huffing. As with any heart-pumping cardio workout, it will help reduce your risk for heart disease and other chronic diseases, boost your mood and improve brain function. Treadmill workouts are offered at almost every gym making it an accessible option for all fitness levels.
