I just got a treadmill and I am a beginning runner. I want to gain muscle and lose fat off my mid section, arms, breasts, and everywhere. I was wondering what is a good treadmill workout. I’ve always heard that running intervals like 2 minutes fast pace than 2 minutes slow pace and so on is a good way to workout. But I would think that running a good 25-30 minutes fast pace is also a good workout. Which way is more efficient and what is an overall good workout plan?

Start with a 10 min warm up
then increase the incline to about 3-5 % ggrade (Uphill)
Run hard uphill for 3min
then slow the pace for 1min 30 sec (90sec)
Repeat this process for 3-miles the first week, then add 2 more miles for a total of 5-miles. The following week increase the percentage (% )of incline a little more. This Will make the run even more challenging for you.
Or you can increase the time you run hard (and the recovery as well) by 1-2 minutes.
drink 8-12 oz of water and 25 grams of protein
(should be done within the first 30 min…… after exercising)
warm down for 10 min and then stretch out for 30 minutes
have fun
