Treadmill Sprints

What It Is

Short, all-out runs with rest between, the fastest way to build speed and push your fitness in little time.

How to Do It

Clip on the safety key. Sprint as hard as you can for the time given. To rest, hold the rails and straddle the belt on the side rails. Never jump off a moving belt. Raise the speed or the incline to reach the heart rate your coach asked for.

Tips

Hold the rails as you step back onto the belt. Pump your arms and stay near the front of the belt.

Skill Level

Advanced. Heavy barbell lifts, Olympic-lift variations or all-out sprints. They take precise technique under load.

Type

Cardio. Raises your heart rate to build endurance and heart health.
