Elliptical Training: Workout 1


When it comes to my favorite workout machines, the elliptical is at the top of my list! As a trainer, I get asked frequently if it’s possible to actually get a good workout on an elliptical, and my answer is always yes! Since an elliptical is a combination of a treadmill and bike, you can really get your heart rate up and go easy on your joints. It’s a win-win. Now it’s time to lace up your shoes and break a sweat. Let’s get started!

Today’s Focus: Intervals


WARM UP: On elliptical
  • 5 minutes easy pace (resistance 1–5)
WORKOUT: On elliptical (Complete 8 times through)
  • 45 seconds 75% effort (resistance 6–10)
  • 30 seconds 100% effort (resistance 11–15)
  • 60 seconds easy pace (resistance 1–5)
COOLDOWN: On elliptical
  • 2 minutes 50% effort (resistance 1–5)
  • 3 minutes easy pace (resistance 1–5)
