The goal of this workout is to lose weight, tone the leg muscles and increase endurance. This treadmill workout plan can be modified for all categories of experience, from beginner to advanced. Simply increase the incline or speed to match current exercise levels.

Walking or jogging at the same steady pace for up to an hour can get boring. It can also be ineffective. Cardio cannot be beat for fat-loss. However, walking steady state will only increase endurance, it will not make a real difference in losing weight. Getting the heart pumping is key to getting the most out of a treadmill workout. Varying the treadmill workout routines both during the workout and during the week will keep the body guessing and train it to work harder and make reaching exercise goals easier and faster.

Several different approaches are used with treadmill fitness, keeping all of the goals in mind. One day includes power walking to really tone up the muscles in the legs. Another day utilizes interval training, which means changing speeds and inclines while performing the workout. This approach works great for fat-loss. Finally, there is jogging for cardiovascular endurance.

The Treadmill Workout Plan can be done after weight training is finished, or on separate days. The Treadmill cardio workout should not last more than an hour. Beginners should start out slow and work their way up to advanced. The advantage of using the treadmill is the ability to increase the speed and incline. As the treadmill workouts get easier, increasing the incline and the speed, guarantees that the workouts will become progressively difficult.

The treadmill workout is a great all-around workout plan to help lose weight, tone muscles and increase endurance. The flexibility of the treadmill means it can be modified for anyone and will be useful for a very long time.
