hi everyone,
i am new to this site, but i LOVE it already! i actually started my diet/exercise routine jan. 1st. i know most people don't keep their new year's resolutions, BUT so far, so good! lol! i started at 129 lbs. and the last time i weighed in, i was 117 lbs. so, i am figuring something is working. lol! i walk the treadmill almost every night. i started out walking 1 mile, then 1.5 miles, now 2 miles. it takes me almost 30 minutes to do this. i always walk at 4.0-4.2 mph. so, it is pretty fast....for me anyway! anyway, i was just curious how far/long you all walk??
by the way, nice to see you all! you are all an inspiration to me! this is such a wonderful site!

I usually do half an hour-about a mile and a half. For the first few days I went longer but Ive slowed Down the last couple days.

i'm just starting using the treadmills and i do 40 minutes on it at speed 3 right now but its the elevation that totally rocks the workout!

i try bout and hour or so. if ur wanting to find out how many calories u burn according 2 the activity and ur weight go 2: Calorie Counter - Free Online Diet Journal it's pretty cool.

Hey all, I'm new here I typically walk on the treadmill for about 30 min. at 3.0-4.0. I usually get the incline up there, too...about 3.0. Adding the incline REALLY makes you work, even if you're walking slowly. Having a book or magazine will help lengthen your workout as well - that way you're not paying attention to the time!

We usually do 2 miles in about 20-30 minutes... 4 miles in 45 minutes to an hour. But that is not on a treadmill.

i'm up to about 60 minutes now on the weight loss setting level 5 which goes through incline intervals and i usually start at 3.3 on speed and go to 3.5. i'm gradually graduating to the next speed level

I do 4 miles in 1 hour, but not on a treadmill. I've also found that if you rotate back and forth between fast walking and cool downs, you can lose more weight. With walking at a conversational pace, it might take longer. But good job with the fast pace! I know thats hard!! My boyfriend is a runner and assumes walking is easy but you can get just as good of a workout walking fast!

I personally usually workout on the treadmill for about 45 min to an hour and then also do the elliptical machine for 20-30 minutes. Working out at a cardio level for only 30 minutes might help you loose weight but it is not really doing much good for your air or heart endurance. I know this because I am an asthma patient...and I can only do so much when it comes to cardio. However...if what you are doing now is working stick with it!

I usually set the pace at 3.5 and the incline at 1 or 2 on the treadmill and then then lower the incline completely on the elliptical and go for as long as I can. Hope this is helpful to you!
