Following these steps should help to have a unique and effective variety of intervals on your treadmill.

Step one

Start with the first interval of stretching out your body. This can be five of each stretching motion, or what ever helps you feel limber and ready to work out.

Now start your warm up time on the treadmill. You can do a relatively smooth and slow walk for 5 minutes or what ever you are comfortable with. Keep in mind that trying to keep the intervals all the same number or time frame will help with consistency and consistency is the way to go.

Step three

After you are warmed up, start with your intervals of the higher intensity exercise program. This can be five minutes of jogging, five minutes of a 2% incline, and then five minutes of walking, or what ever the intervals of movement you feel will get you the work out you need.

Step four

It you will be using weights for part of your workout, or the entire part of your workout, make sure that it is also consistent and even. Doing five-minute intervals with pumping or holding the weights is a great way to increase calories burned. So go for it, add in a few intervals of weights.

Step five

Making sure that there is some variety in the different intervals you do will also liven up the workout.

Add in an internal of skipping, or kicking, or a hop to your step. You will find that it is more fun than just walking, and the workout will have a greater effect as far as calories being burned etc.

Intervals are a great way to set up your exercise program. However, remember that consistency is the key. Steady, and consistent will make any exercise program more effective.

If you want to get the most from your exercise programs create or use a created program that has the same intervals of steps, and motions. You may have the option to choose what you want to program into your treadmill. However, if that is not the case, you can also write down what intervals you want to do, or just remember them. As long as it is consistent you will see results.

This is how to do intervals on a treadmill. By following these steps you are not only ready to make your time on the treadmill more effective, but also you are ready to make it more fun. And you have to admit; it is easier to exercise when it is fun. So go ahead, get your intervals going.
