Workout Wednesday

Last night at Sunshine's cross country meet, I was asked by a friend about using the incline on a treadmill which got me to thinking about a statement Jillian Michaels made during her radio show on KFI. It went something like this:

"If you use less than 1% incline on a treadmill, it's like going downhill."

So at a minimum, set your incline to 1.0 and give it a go. Once you get warmed up, start using the incline to raise your heart rate and see how tough those hills really are!

  1. Hahaha!!! I put my treadmill on 1.0 because I don't like the noise that it makes when it is lower than that!!
