How much exercise is enough?

Between 3.5 and 4.5 seems like a slow walk. You don’t need to do it for 45 minutes. A shorter duration at a higher speed would have the same effect. After a couple of minutes between 3.5 and 4.5 you should be doing at least 6.5+. After a couple of minutes warm up I usually move to anywhere between 9-13 depending on my mood.

@Sabriya786

9-13? Are you serious?!?!?!?!!

Dude, 4.5 is pretty fast, I dunno how you can go to 9!

**arshad…**i would think it depends on the kind of treadmill one is using..perhaps the speeds vary? also it would depend on the height of the person. A person with long legs would be able to go faster and then a person with short legs and they would go at different speeds…no?

**Sabriya…**when i jog on the treadmill i go b/w 5-6. which is probably the fastest I ever plan on going. 4.5 is a brisk power walk for me. I actually alternate days…one day I power walk and other days jog because jogging everyday isnt good for your joints. Anyway IMO 4.5 is decent speed for us women unless you plan on being a sprinter

Just go with your level of comfort and not what others are doing.

@FrozenFire

an hour of workout is moreee thannnn enough!!!.. 2hrs is way too much.

I agree…but she included 15 minz sauna in there as well and if she is including “proper” stretches then its not so bad.
