Hi guys,

I just wanted few tips on what I should be doing next.

I've been running for almost 4 weeks now and I'm almost into the 60 minute mark jogging on a treadmill. After the run I usually to push-up sit-ups and end my session there.

I continue the same procedure for 5 days a week and manage to burn around thousand calories a day.

Therefore should I be changing anything or should keep it how it is?

Thanks in advance

    this really good going, if you got access to a rowing machine that would be good as that works quite a few muscles in your body and is good for cardio, try to do around 30 minutes on it.

    With the treadmill do you do a flat run or do you do hills/intervals etc as this will work your body and heart rate too.

    right then, I need to buy a rowing machine or leave my personal "gym" and join a real gym... thanks for the tip

    All you need to do is add 1000 burpees to end of your routine and you'll start to get into shape.

    if you havent got one dont worry, when you use the treadmill try to do different work outs on it. it's easy to get on a treadmill and run, but when you chuck in inclines and declines, and sprints it soon starts to work the heart.

    Try a Cardio sprint pyramid. this is a 15 min warm up and at the end do a 20 sec sprint to prepare the body for whats to come.
    so do a 30 sec sprint then 30 recovery, 1 min sprint, 1 min recovery, 2 min sprint, 2 min recovery, 4 mins sprint, 4 mins recovery, 2 mins sprint, 2 mins recovery, 1 mins sprint, 1 min recovery, 30 sec sprint, 30 secs recovery, then do a flat run for 10-15mins and do it again. just a littel change like that and you will see the difference (its hard going tho)
