The Fat-Burning Walking Workout Plan

Walk 5: 45-Minute Treadmill Trimmer

Clip Cole's secret-weapon workout for the gym. "The combo of inclines and faster bursts is an ideal one-two punch for seeing results," she says. Go by the speed cues or the intensity level, where 1 is lounging and 10 is an all-out effort.
