I’ve got to say…I’m loving the discussion on this afternoon’s post. CAN women be “too toned?” Make sure to check out the discussion happening, and feel free to add your two cents!
Now…I promised you all a new treadmill workout. Well, here it is!
A few days ago, I happened to come across this routine on Naomi’s blog. To be honest, a few of the numbers really freaked me out, but I loved the concept of the routine. So I went ahead and used that as a guide to create what I will call…
The “Sweaty Mess” Incline Intervals Workout
This routine actually reminded me a lot of this workout, only that the incline on this one starts out high and drops lower.
I will say this: Do NOT let the lower speeds fool you!
While the speeds may be low, the incline that you’re running at is intense. I honestly can’t remember the last time I worked up such a sweat with a treadmill workout!
I dare all of you to give this a try ASAP…and let me know when you do.

definitely going to try that workout this week!
have you made any doughnuts with your new pan yet?!
I am definitely trying this tomorrow!!! I have been kiiiind of scared of the treadmill the last while and this is a little less intimidating.
Want to do this. Must get treadmill!
AWESOME workout! I can’t wait to try it
. Let me know if you ever try out the ones I emailed you!
The workout looks awesome! I do have a question I’ve been meaning to ask though, it might be super silly but you’re just the one to ask. I’ve been running for a while but always outdoors and now that I want to improve my time and work with some HITT workouts I’ve started hoping on treadmills. I noticed they have the interval option but how can you just plug in an entire workout so that it changes by itself?
Thanks for helping this treadmill newbie!
i need a good sweaty workout… just getting back from corolla makes me want to detox and sweat it out!
Holy that’s a quad burner if I ever saw one! I’ll have to try it in the upcoming weeks – tapering for a race this week so I don’t dare!
Wow what an awesome workout! And a great way to tone the tush too
Can’t wait to try it!
I need to try this one out. Probably should give my legs a day of rest before I do this…does not look easy!
Wow–that workout looks intense!!
ahh i did a version of this treadmill workout last week and it was INSANE. i swear i never sweat as much on a treadmill either haha and the last few minutes are insane. but so awesome after haha
What an awesome work out! I might have to work this one into my training plan at some point!
38 minutes of a beast workout!? Jeez louise I’ve got to try this baby out
I’m honestly not sure I could make it through this workout! double digit inclines scare me!
Wow that looks beastly, especially minutes 30-31!!
Wow, those inclines are CRAZY. I didn’t even know the treadmill’s incline went up that high! And here I am thinking I’m doing something nutty by putting the incline on 7. You rock!
9 mph?!?! I think even 10 seconds at that would make me puke! LOL. I may have to train just to do this workout.
Wow … just looking at that routine makes me tired.
Hey Courtney…do you have any walking treadmill workouts? I am not a runner at all but want to start doing some intervals!
Yes! I have this one: http://www.sweettoothsweetlife.com/workout-log/45-minute-treadmill-workout/
But now you’ve also inspired me to make another one…stay tuned!
I saw this as I was browsing your site and had to try it this morning! I loved it!! I continued walking on a high incline and running after 38 minutes to round off 1 hour of intense sweaty cardio and it burned 700 calories! I then did one of your new circuits and then hopped in the pool for 30 minutes of lap swim. It was a very productive and awesome morning! Thanks for your postings and ideas
They help me not stay complacent with my workouts.
