or just go to the park, walk and talk to qts.

>Treadmill
Elliptical mogs.
>>
Set incline to 15%
Set speed to 6km/h (3,73 in retarded imperial) as base speed
From time to time put 16km/h (10mph) for 30-45 seconds to maxx your heart rate
Repeat 5-6 times
>>

Good luck finding a treadmill with 12% elevation. Might as well just do one minute hill repeats with two minutes jogging back down of rest outside.
>>
The Technogyms at my gym go all the way to 15% I believe. 12%@3mph will get old fast though, it is uncomfortable and you're getting MET 9 or thereabout. I would much rather do a light jog.
>>
I did this for 56 minutes at the gym but I had to take a shit so I couldn’t go the full 90 or 120 that I planned on

The fuck are you talking about?
I've never seen a treadmill that doesn't do at least 15deg.
>>
Add 150 lb rucksack for insane calorie burn

Every commercial one does

I'm considering going to the gym 30 minutes earlier and adding this to my workout. Seems like it's gonna be boring.
>>
I've been doing 15 incline at 3 speed for 30 minutes, and it's getting easy, might bump up to 16 next week.
>>
... what does 12% elevation mean
>>
>>77326563
I guess maybe 100% means that the treadmill is pointing straight up?
>>
>>77326588
it would be extremely painful
>>
>>77323653
So where did this come from/what's the benefit over just walking outside? My coworkers have been talking about it so it's clearly a fad of some sort. Are there any actual benefits (outside of, you know, the walking)?
>>
>>77326563
Every 100m travelled laterally, you went up 12m in elevation.
>>
>>77326591
Have more calories burned in less time while still being low impact.
>>
>>77326821
If someone is worried about impact they should just do the elliptical.
>>
>>77323653
1/2hr at 12% will burn mostly the glucose stored in your muscles.
After this reduce the angle to about 6% and do another 1/2hr and you'll burn mostly fat.

>right after lifting HARD go to the treadmill
>set the incline between 2,5% and 5%
>set speed at 6 km/h
>walk for 15-20 mins

>>right after lifting HARD go to the treadmill
So divert blood flow away from the muscle groups after all that work - stupid idea
>>
why not just run/jog instead of walk
>>
>>77327063
Your recovery lasts like, 48hrs. You're over reacting.

tyme

>>77323653
At the end of a workout, i usually do 8% at 3.5mph for at least 10 minutes, usually 20-30 and its very doable and effective
>>
>>77327360
exactly, you can jog for the same amount of tyme and get better results
>>
>>77327384
Yeah, some have more of it.
>>
>>77323653
This is good for a pretty easy 3k+ steps at the gym. I usually do it post workout and leave the gym with almost 5k steps done already before I get to the rest of my day. It's not a magical workout but does make getting cardio more approachable for people with a mid cardio base
