Are you spending a lot of time on the same boring treadmill routine?

It’s time to mix things up, still burn as much fat and calories without spending hours on the machine.

Here are some quick and effective alternate treadmill exercises for every type of exerciser. If you aren’t sure of inculcating these exercises in your routine, start under expert guidance at a gym nearby.

  • 30-second sprint interval

Speedwork is fast becoming my favourite workout routine because it makes any boring workout enjoyable, and the exercises are fun. If you think you’re not into speed workouts, give these tips a try, and I guarantee you’ll be hooked!

Steps to follow:

  1. Start the treadmill at a 1% incline. The incline will make it easier. Keep your pace slow for one minute. You can walk at this time, or jog slowly if you prefer. This will help you feel more energetic to power through the rest of your workout. This will help you get in shape and stay fit so you can achieve that summer body you.
  2. Now pick up the pace so you’re running as hard as you can (heavy breathing). Recover with 90 seconds of easy jogging.
  3. After an appropriate warm-up, complete 18 minutes of alternating between 90 seconds of fast running and 90-second recovery strolls.
  4. Finish with a cool-down walk of 4 minutes at an easy pace. You can jog or brisk walk.
  • The Endurance Building Workout/Calorie-Blasting Pyramid Workout

Avoid the burn and fatigue with this effective running method!

Steps to follow:

Estimated Duration of the Workout: 17 minutes.

  1. 5 minutes: Warm-up either by jogging or by walking.
  2. 1 minute: Start with 1–2mph above the steady-state pace.
  3. 1 minute: Steady-state pace.
  4. 2 minutes: 1–2mph above the steady-state pace
  5. 2 minutes: Steady-state pace
  6. 3 minutes: 1–2mph above the steady-state pace
  7. 3 minutes: Steady-state pace
  8. Repeat this until fatigued. Keep matching the steady-state pace and recovery with the total duration of your effort.
  9. 5 minutes: Cool Down session
  • Side Stepping Workout

This is a great workout combining running and walking with some good old side shuffles, which will really work your glutes and quads.

Steps to follow:

  1. Please set the incline of the treadmill to 1% and warm up by walking for one minute. Slowly increase the pace of the walk until you are jogging at an easy pace for four minutes.
  2. To begin, grab onto the side rail of the treadmill with your dominant hand. Suck in your stomach, and don’t let go of the side rail as you gently shift your body to one side, keeping both feet planted on the platform. Gently begin to turn and shuffle until you are completely aligned with the back of the treadmill.
  3. Getting your heart rate up for two minutes will help you burn calories and build stamina. Walk slowly and perform side shuffles (walking from heel to toe on one foot) to move blood and oxygen to muscles.
  4. Continue with a slow and easy run for 2 minutes/ 30 seconds of alternating side shuffles.
  5. Continue the exercise for 20 minutes at a gym nearby your location.
  6. Finish with an easy jog or brisk walking for the next five minutes to cool down.
