Here is a quick rundown of some
important and effective treadmill workouts which will help you stay fit and
healthy, and most importantly, boost your stamina to perform other
exercises.
Turn On the Tempo
In case you are an amateur, set the
incline to 1 percent and warm up with 10 minutes of easy but stretched running
on the treadmill. Later, extend the tempo for 3 to 4 minutes, and walk for 3 to
4 minutes continuously. Do the same at least 3 to 5 times.
Half-Mile Intervals
Don’t just get driven with the pace
and rather take proper intervals after every half mile. After warming up with
15 to 20 minutes of easy and continuous running, run a half-mile at 75 percent
of your entire strength. When done,, slow down and jog for around 200 meters.
This can be repeated for 6 to 8 times depending upon your stamina.
Progression Run Through
Warming up with 5 to 10 minutes of
easy running is very good for the beginners while the time cab be extended to
15 to 20 minutes for the pros. Set the incline at 1 percent and run fast at a 5
miles-per-hour pace. Gradually increase the speed 0.2 mph every minute until
you are completely stressed out and exhausted.
Hill Workout
A great workout to challenge the anaerobic
and neuromuscular system, the workout requires a warm up session with 10
minutes of easy running. Start by setting the incline to 8 percent and sprint
as fast as you can for 30 seconds continuously. This is one round so repeat the
same for around 6 to 9 times.
