Some Fat Burning at the Gym

A Treadmill Weight Loss Routine

What to do:
30 minutes of aerobics. Warm up fot 2 minutes, then alternate cycles of three-minute fast-walking sprints with one-minute recovery sessions.

First Sprint: 4.5 to 5 mph at an incline of 4 percent. Recovery: 4 to 5 mph at no incline. Second Sprint: 4.5 to 5 mph at an incline of 6 percent. Recovery: 4 to 5 mph at no incline. Third Sprint: 4.5 to 5 mph at an incline of 6 to 8 percent. Recovery: 4 to 5 mph at no incline. Four Sprint: 4.5 to 5 mph at an incline of 10 to 12 percent. Recovery: 4 to 5 mph at no incline. Fifth Sprint: 4.5 to 5 mph at an incline of 12 to 14 percent. Recovery: 4 to 5 mph at no incline. Sixth Sprint: 4.5 to 5 mph at an incline of 14 to 15 percent. Recovery: 4 to 5 mph at no incline.

Cool down over four minutes, gradually return speed to start.
  • five minutes for back and abs.
  • five minutes for for push ups.

Do as many as you can from the toes.
  • five minutes of general stretching and cool down.

This routine decreases body fat and tones you.
