One of the major ways on how to boost your treadmill workouts is to simulate a particular running track or race track. Some advanced treadmill units have built in programs that simulate a particular hiking track or running track that allows you to vary your workout. So take a hike and follow some hiking trails within your Proform Power 995 treadmill unit. You can also use some pre-programmed running trails to help you run faster and boost your workout routine. Some units even have hilly tracks that allow you to walk or run along a hilly path. But if your treadmill unit does not have these built-in programs, you can still do all of these things by adjusting the levels on your unit. You can simulate a hilly path by adjusting the incline level of your unit. Start your workout with a slow pace on a flat belt. Then slowly increase your incline level each minute, until it reaches 5 or 6 percent, and stay on that level for 3 to 5 minutes. Then gradually lower your incline as if you are walking down the slopes to allow you to cool down.Another way to make a treadmill workout fun is to boost up your workout with music. Get rid of your mellow and love song tracks on your iPod, and change your tracks with fast songs that can improve your level of energy. There are a lot of walking and running tracks available on the internet, so look through these lists and choose the songs that will hype up your workout sessions. Some runners even listen to rock music during marathons, because it pumps up their beat, and increases their pace. You can even vary your walking or running pace according to the beat of the music.Watching TV or movies also helps boost your Proform zt3 treadmill treadmill workouts. If you are a TV addict, you can watch your favorite TV shows while exercising on the treadmill. So why not hit two birds with one stone, and exercise while you watch TV.
