Guest Fitme Posted November 8, 2018 Report Share Posted November 8, 2018 Need treadmill speed and incline suggestions for beginners for C25K intervals... that’s all this app seems to be lacking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSwain Posted November 13, 2018 Report Share Posted November 13, 2018 I agree. I just finished wk 1 day 2. But I don’t no what I am doing. Have to use treadmill so did both workouts at 6.0mph run speed while running and 3.5mph speed while walking. No clue though if that is right wrong or doesn’t matter. Seems this app is really just a timer ?? Doesn’t really say how many days to let go by between workouts. I am assuming it’s three days every other day ? Doesn’t say. Also not a lot of replies in forums. Hope expletive gets better but I did like the first two sessions so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Old Fart Posted November 14, 2018 Report Share Posted November 14, 2018 Hard to be specific with so little information... At least 1 day between training until your muscles adapt to the stress and you can do 5K. I've seen 5 or 6mph with 3 for the walk recommended, but starting fitness may require something else.

Guest Monica Posted November 17, 2018 Report Share Posted November 17, 2018 Hello. I just started the C25K bc I blow my knew trying to complete 10k. I found this app on Ytube. I use it in conjunction with Nike+run club. Nike+ guided runs provide excellent guidance on how to time your run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fitme Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 I completed day 1 at speed 3-3.5 walk and 5 jog and incline 0-2. I find that my calves get pretty sore early on and I don’t know if it’s because of my speed/incline with the treadmill? Hoping to avoid injury!

Guest Gabrielle Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 Today I finished Week 1 Day 1, and I had my treadmill set to 3.2 for walking and 4.0 for running at a 0 incline. It said “jogging,” and in my mind that’s anywhere between 4-5. 5-6 is running for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Atarisrokerchic Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 And just like that I feel completely inadequate. Lolz. My walk is 2.4 and jog is 3.4-3.6 depending on how sore my knees and ankles are on week 5. I guess I’m just excessively out of shape. Power to you all for that speed.

Guest Paxton31 Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 You are not inadequate at all with that speed of walk 2.4 and jog 3.4-3.6. It also depends on your stride, length of your legs, form and running/jogging style to get the right place. You do you and keep on keeping on!

Guest Jjiggles Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 I’m doing 3.4mi walk and 4.0 run/jog. I am a little anxious on the treadmill and fear falling off, also just starting out so I don’t want to be totally gassed halfway through the run. Every other day seems to work best for me so far.

Guest Roche Posted March 23, 2019 Report Share Posted March 23, 2019 Hi, I'm seeing all the miles .. we use Kms. I walk at about 5-6kms and have been starting running at 8.5 - 9kms ... should I slow it down (new to this!) Just not sure what actual running speed is classed as. Desperate for results but don't want to ruin myself either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleBkPkr Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 I think the walk and run settings would be different for everyone. What may feel like running to one could be a fast walk to another. It would seem best to find your confort level and push just enough. If you go full tilt above and beyond your limit it may be more of a detriment than a help. I know my speed has improved since I started using a treadmill. Couple weeks and I’ll transition to the great outdoors when the weather warms up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabapple Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 Roche, if you look at the list on your app (where you find this forum, where you can put in your height/weight, send feedback, etc.), you'll see "units" near the bottom of the list (you may have to scroll to see it). If your app is giving you miles, slide the button to the left and it will change to km. Then, even if most or all people are talking in miles, your training program will be in kilometers.

CleBkPkr Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 Hello Rosie! From what I understand, one of the schools of thought is "if you can run slower, you are running to fast". Also, the run/walk routine is supposed to be the best approach. Keep doing what you are doing and I think it will all fall into place!

Rosie Glowe Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 Thank you so much. Just been for a run on the treadmill as it’s a beautiful day here and even in the garage it was a good day! CleBkPkr and Crabapple 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when I get to the end of programme I then work on speed increase or time increase or both. (Been through this programme about three times) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anytimestrength Posted July 26, 2020 Report Share Posted July 26, 2020 Beginner treadmill workout is a great to exercise equipment and its solid go-to routine so first start by walking determine how long you'll work out try 3 min test warm up and remember slow and steady wins the race or don,t run on an incline for too long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ChrisM Posted September 13, 2020 Report Share Posted September 13, 2020 Hi I have checked the settings looking for the units, but this is not an option on the zen labs c25k I have?? Any suggestions? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roy Yerkes Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 You can start treadmill running at a slow pace for 15 minutes, three days a week. Then, gradually increase the duration to 30 minutes, four times a week. If your goal is to improve the level of your fitness, your exercise level should be moderate to vigorous.

Tom Riddle Posted August 20, 2021 Report Share Posted August 20, 2021 You should start it by walking at speed 3 or 3.5. After that you'll get to know which speeds suits you as time passes. Read more running or Jogging blogs here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
