New Workout For Old Treadmills - Ep 12 - Brides Made Fit

August 27th, 2009 admin 3 comments

The invention of the treadmill, in my mind, is ranked almost as high as the invention of the wheel. What a genius idea to make a contraption that allows you to travel as far as you want without moving! Of course, only a certain population can appreciate them. But whether you walk, run, or trek it up the incline, it may get a little boring after a while. Instead of feeling like a giant mindless hamster on the treadmill, incorporate it into your strength training.

Walking and running are great for your cardio and legs. But if you’re not challenging your muscles with weight-bearing movements in your fitness routine, your legs may actually get weaker and prone to injury — despite your daily 6 mile runs. In my latest podcast, I show you some challenging ways to strengthen and tone your legs right on the treadmill. No more boring squats and lunges for you!
