You\u2019ve probably read about the power of interval running<\/a> workouts. They can increase your speed<\/a>, crush tons of calories and help you burn fat. But it\u2019s tough to know when to speed up and slow down without checking your watch every second \u2014 not to mention, taking your runs to the treadmill can get boring with a capital B.<\/p>\n

The Daily Burn Interval Treadmill Workout Anyone Can Do<\/h2>\n

In smart training form, you\u2019ll kick off this workout with a mobility<\/a> warm-up, featuring basic squats<\/a> and lunges. Then you\u2019ll ease into the cardio section with a walk and light jog. After priming your muscles, you\u2019ll kick off the intervals<\/a>, in which you pick up speed and work through three sets of 60-, 45- and 30-second sprints. The rest times change throughout the workout, and the goal is to pick up your pace with each work round.<\/p>\n

This type of interval training works well \u201cfor creating heart rate variability, meaning you push more blood through your arteries and veins during those higher-speed bursts,\u201d Mariotti says. \u201cPairing work intervals with recovery breaks creates the variability that offers a short- and long-term improvement on\u00a0metabolism<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Keep in mind, \u201cintervals\u201d doesn\u2019t necessarily mean advanced. While Mariotti will offer goal speeds<\/a>, you can feel free to go slower or faster, depending on your skill level. The idea is to listen in, push yourself and feel proud by the time you reach the cool-down.<\/p>\n
