Efficient Way Using Treadmill To Burn Fat

Treadmill allow us to walk or jog in consistent pace. If we walk or jog  outdoor, it's very easy for us to unconsciously and unwantingly slow down. Maybe the greatest motivation for one to exercise is losing weight. There is one simple technique we can apply while jogging at treadmill to achieve a maximum result for losing weights. This is call the interval training.
The basic principle in interval training is to alternate high burst intesity  with low intensity training. There have been many studies conducted confirming  this theory. In fact, interval training have been used in athlete training programs.

What we need for interval training with treadmill

Obviously we need a treadmill, preferably an auto treadmill. And we also need heart beat measurement tool. You can check heart beat monitor tool at  Omron HR-100C Heart Rate Monitor

First you need to calculate your maximum heart beat rate. This is the number of 220 minus your age.  Next  calculate the 60% and 75% value  from the maximum heart beat rate. Example your age is 40 then
your maximum heart beat rate is 220-40= 180.
the 60% value is 60/100 multiply 180= 108
the 75% value is 75/100 multiply 180= 135

After obtaining your personal data now its time to start the exercise.

• Warm up.  Always start any type of exercise with warm up. This will prepare your body and minimized the risk of injury. A 10 minutes warm up is sufficient.

• 5 minutes 60% value

Start increasing your pace so your heart beat rate reach the 60%. Maintain this pace for 5 minutes.

• 2 minutes 75% value

Increase your pace until you reach 75% heart beat rate.

• Return to the 60% heart beat rate phase. Repeat the cycle  for approximately 20 minutes.
• Cool down by slowing your pace.

This technique really put maximum work to your cardiovascular system so if you have any cardiovascular problem please consult your physician prior doing this exercise.
Do this exercise routinely and you will soon see results in losing weights.
