1.  Sprints Interval for 30 seconds

Doing this will help you shed gallons of sweat by the end of your workout session. This will not only energize you but help you burn all that extra fat. Start by walking on a slow pace and then go on to gradually increasing the speed. Then take an intense or hard interval of 30 seconds for 9 times. Finish the session by walking on a relatively slower pace for 5 minutes or so to cool down.

2. Walk on the hill workout

Have you ever walked on a hill? If yes, you might be aware that walking on slop or a hill takes a lot of effort. Similarly, walking on the inclined treadmill will optimize your strength. All you have to do is, walk slowly for 5 minutes, and then increase the incline with a percentage of 1. Walk on the incline for a minute, lower it to 0% and walk on it for a minute. With every step increase the percentage and duration in the ratio of 1. End the workout by walking slowly for 5 minutes, it will help you recover and get back to normal.

3. Side step workout

It is the amalgamated workout, it includes running and walking. To begin with, warm up your body by walking at a slow pace for duration of 4-5 minutes. Now, hold on to the one side of the trail and turn your body, lift it up and shuffle on the sides. Do not cross your feet with one another. Side step for 30 seconds and get back to walking on slower pace. Repeat the process, this time do it from the other side. Do the workout from both the sides for 20 minutes or more, depending upon your own capacity and strength. Complete the session by walking again on a slow pace for 5 minutes.

4. Pyramid workout

This workout again is the combination of running and walking exercises. As usual, start with walking slowly for duration of 3-4 minutes. Gradually start doing sprints for 30 seconds and then a 30 second walk. Increase the duration for both the exercises up to 1 minute i.e. 1 minute for sprints and walk each. Since the body is now pumped up, enhance the time for sprints, do it for 2 minutes and then for 3 and then for 4 minutes. However, walking duration is left constant i.e. you need to walk for 1 minute every time after doing sprints. Finish the session by walking on slow pace for 5 minutes.
