Okay so I hate working out and cant stand running. I hate walking alone, so I joined the YMCA. Need the motivation. Anyway I found this great workout in Fitness Magazine that I just want to share with everyone. Basically put- before you realize it half an hour has passed and you have worked your tail off! This is done on the treadmill. The workout you get from it is phenominal!

4 minutes walking 0% incline 3.5-4.0 speed
2 minutes walking 2% incline 4.0-4.5 speed
1 minutes walking 0% incline 3.5-4.0 speed (recovery)
2 minutes walking 4% incline 4.0-4.5 speed
1 minutes walking 0% incline 3.5-4.0 speed (recovery)
2 minutes walking 6% incline 4.0-4.5 speed
1 minutes walking 0% incline 3.5-4.0 speed (recovery)
2 minutes walking 2% incline 4.0-4.5 speed
start again
2 minutes walking 2% incline 4.0-4.5 speed
1 minutes walking 0% incline 3.5-4.0 speed (recovery)
2 minutes walking 4% incline 4.0-4.5 speed
1 minutes walking 0% incline 3.5-4.0 speed (recovery)
2 minutes walking 6% incline 4.0-4.5 speed
1 minutes walking 0% incline 3.5-4.0 speed (recovery)
2 minutes walking 2% incline 4.0-4.5 speed
4 minutes cool down 0% incline 3.5- 4.0 speed

200 calories burned (yes its true!!!) 2.0 miles walked and most importantly your ENTIRE BODY gets a great work out. Trust me before you realize it your workout is over and you will feel it everywhere. :-)

I hope you guys try this, and I strongly recommend it if your anything like me and do not like to run. If you do like to run this will train you to improve your speed.

Good Luck!!!
