20 min Multi Directional Treadmill Workout


Forget repetitive motion!

Try this routine on a treadmill for 360 degrees of fitness fun!

Warm up for 5 minutes with a fast walk

1. Jog 2 min 1% incline 6.0 - 8.0 mph

2. Turn right and side shuffle 1 min at 0% incline 4.0 - 4.5mph (slower if you need to at first)

3. Turn left and side shuffle 1 min at 0% incline 4.0 - 4.5 mph (slower if you need to at first)

4. Turn backwards and jog or walk back wards 1 min at 3.5 - 5.5 mph (hold onto rails if need be)

5. Turn forwards and begin jog interval (#1) again, then side shuffles and backwards.

Repeat the five intervals 4 times for a total of 20 min.

Cool down and stretch.
