Great work Ben!

That’s the fastest way to get fit! Remember every three weeks you need to ramp it up a notch!

I started my running program 3 weeks ago and did short program 3 times back to back. Decreasing the starting speed by .5km/h each time. I thought I had progressed fairly well until this. I finshed tha lest one at 9km/h. At the end of the third I thought I was going to fall over. It felt awesome.

Hi Munim,
Yes it will definitely help if you run for longer. In fact why don’t you try to push your session to 1 hour total. Even if this is 30mins on the treadmill then 10 on the bike, ten on the X trainer and 10 on the rower.
But to be honest, you should just spend 2 weeks really being strong willed and reducing your intake. Your body will get used to it I promise and one day you will look back on your old diet and laugh!

Thanks for your nice mail.

I will try to do so.

Reducing food intake is the most difficult part. 1800 calories for each day is very difficult for me, as I am habituated of taking large quantities of food in every meal. But I will try my level best to reduce it as much as possible.

Can I do some more workouts to compensate my heavy eating habit? Will it do any good if I run for 30 mints (3 sessions at a time)

Hi Munim,

Wow thats 25kgs! What an awesome goal. If you reduce your daily calories to 1500-1800 per day and followed this four times per week, with some other activity on the other days (such as 30min walking), I would expect you would be losing 1/2 – 1kg per week. So you are looking at 6-12 months. Don’t do the running more than 4 times per week. In fact if you are completely sedintary at the moment, I would only do it 3 times for the first month and add in a Pump class, spinning or swimming on the fourth day. This will protect your joints in the early stages. After month 1, you can increase to 4 times per week but do some outdoor running, not just the treadmill. Good luck!

Hi
I am 5′.7″ and 85 kg. I want to reduce my weight to 60 kg. How long will it take me to achieve my goal by following the above routine?

Do you have any other advice for me?

Thanks and Regards
Munim

Hi Jules,

Yes you did the right thing by lowering the speed but keeping the incline the same. That way you get fit whilst increasing the strength of your legs. Keep at it and before long you’ll be doing it at 10.5km/hr, then 11. I suggest 4x workouts doing the incline section at 10km/hr, then 4x 10.5, and hopefully then you’ll be able to do 11. Keep me posted!
