According to the Department of Health, bumping your treadmill time to 300 minutes a week can result in extensive health benefits, including weight loss. You can reach this goal by walking 43 to 44 minutes each day or walking 60 minutes five days a week. If your time on the treadmill gets a bit dull or you feel pressed for time, consider splitting one long workout session into shorter 10-minute sessions.
Walking is the key to good cardio treadmill workouts. For the first four weeks, you should try for twenty minutes of walking at a pace of about 4-8 mph, depending on your comfort level. Adding ten minutes for the stretching, warm-up and cool-down, youâll spend a half-hour each time. For the next five weeks of treadmill exercise, add ten minutes to your walking time. Do this until you are spending a total of sixty minutes on the treadmill at a time. To keep it interesting, you can change the incline slightly but adjust your speed accordingly to stay in that target heart rate range.
