Quickie Interval Routine
You can do this 12- to 16-minute workout indoors on a stationary bike (increase resistance) or outside running or walking (use speed bursts). Use your Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE), or how difficult the exercise feels on a scale of 1 to 10.
- 3-5 minutes: Warm up, low intensity (RPE 3-4).
- 15 seconds: Speed or resistance burst; increase speed or resistance from moderate to heavy (RPE 7-8).
- 45 seconds: Recover at low to moderate intensity (4-5).
- Repeat intervals of 15 seconds of work/45 seconds of recovery for a total of 6 times (work up to 8 times).
- 3-5 minutes: Cool down.
