Treadmill Shredmill

So I am by no means an expert but I constantly have friends asking me what exercises to do so I figured I would share one of my favorite Cardio routines!

Honestly you could probably do this on an elliptical as well but Ill be honest I hate ellipticals and am on them maybe 4 times a year NO JOKE!

But here is the routine I did tonight and man was I covered in sweat by the end of it, even got my heart rate up to 166 during it!

5 min warm up I ran at a 6.0
Then 5 rounds of 1 min 30 second sprints at 8.5 and 30 seconds off
Then 5 rounds of 30 second sprints at 9.5 30 seconds off
Then 5 rounds of 30 second sprints at 10.0 30 seconds off
Finally cool down with a 5 min incline walk (15% incline at 4.0)

Woo down! And it doesn't feel like your on the treadmill for forever cause you are constantly just keeping track of single time frames :)

Enjoy my friends and be sure to lift weights and lift heavy to gain that muscle and lean out (I paired todays treadmill workout with triceps and biceps and I am sure to feel it tomorrow!)

Have a wonderful night!
