Here is an example of an interval training circuit that you can use as a guide.

Warm Up for 5 minutes

After warming up, do about 4 minutes of stretching, focus on hamstrings, quads, calves, hip flexors, and make sure to breath through out the stretching and relax.

Interval Circuit:

Interval 1 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 2 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 3 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 4 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 5 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 6 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 7 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 8 – 30-second

It might become necessary to only have 60 second rest periods if 90 seconds feels to long.  After the interval circuit is over, make sure to do 2 minutes of cool down and then another 2 minutes of stretching.  The whole workout is just under 30 minutes long.  After doing this interval workout a few times a week, you will start to see some great results.
