Beginner 30-Minute Treadmill Workout | He and She Eat Clean

It’s that time of year again when the days get shorter and the weather gets colder. While some people enjoy (or at least brave) the colder air for outside runs, I am not one of them. I like to call myself a fair-weather runner which means I enjoy running outside in the spring and fall when the temperature is around 75 degrees.

This is also the time of year when people start working towards their new goals. Most New Year’s resolutions revolve around losing weight and living a healthy lifestyle. In order to reach these goals, one must start an exercise routine and also eat healthy. Our routines typically involve a combination of weight training and cardio. While much of our cardio is hiking, we also incorporate cardio machines into our routine. Our favorite plan is the She Sweats 12-Week Transformation which focuses on using different cardio machines and different styles of training to keep your body guessing (which is a good thing!).

While training indoors I love to use the incline on the treadmill. It’s a great way to get a good burn and also help prepare my legs for hiking. One of our favorite cardio equipment companies is Horizon Fitness. They are simple to assemble and easy to use. They have five different versions of treadmills which all go up to at least a 10% incline (one even goes up to a 15% incline!). One of our favorite things about Horizon is that you are buying direct from the manufacturer so when you buy Horizon, you can rest assured you’re getting a dependable machine for the best value. Just a side note: if you go to the gym you might have access to the stronger, commercial equipment – the Matrix Fitness brand. The same company that makes these commercial machines also makes the Horizon brand and now the Matrix for home line.

I’ve created a new Beginner 30-Minute Treadmill Workout for you to try! I’m not a big fan of people just running on the treadmill day after day which is why I love to incorporate incline training. This workout routine has a little bit of speed training and incline training all in one workout! You can customize this to your fitness level, just use it as a guide. Even if you aren’t a beginner you can still do this workout, just increase the speed and/or the incline! If this is too hard for you, dial back the speed and/or the incline.

I did a workout similar to this in one of the HIIT classes that I take and it was such a good workout that I wanted to share it. I changed it around a bit so that it would not require any equipment. If you have a jump rope you can use it or you can just use an "invisible" jump rope.

This is a workout you can do at home or at the gym. You will perform each exercise for two minutes and then rest for 30 seconds. The total workout time is 20 minutes, not including the rest periods. Remember to listen to your body though and take more breaks as needed.

We've extended the deadline to enter our Fall Workout Challenge! You have until Oct 7th! Learn more here.


Jump ropes always remind me of elementary school. They aren't just for PE class though, use them as a way to get your heart rate up quickly! They are light, travel easily and don't take up too much space. I love the workout they provide but, I'll admit, I'm not too good at it!

If you are in a crowded gym and can't actually use a jump rope you can still go through the motions with an imaginary jump rope. If you are looking for a good rope, you can find some very inexpensive ones at your local store or online. Here is one from Amazon (affiliate link).

Need some help on how to do the exercises? We've got you covered, check out the posts below.
