Ann, what are preachers?
Have you seen those benches where you sit down and then rest your arms on the pad and then do a curl?
Let's see if this picture works:

you are doing 12? why so many?
do 12 of these... 20 sec slow, 40 secs fast.
do only 8-10 max of the longer ones, do 12 of the shorter ones.
switch it form longer intervals to shorter every other or every 3rd time you do HIIT.

Re: WORKOUT LOG
I'm back to the gym full-time!!! Hooray!!! 
I'm also back to work, but oh well.....
Yesterday I got stuck at work longer than I wanted to, so by the time I got to the gym I was starting to get hungry.
All I did was:
Deep squats: 2/65/10, 1/65/6 (WEAK!)
Romanian dead lifts: 3/45/10
Split squats: 2/15/10
I started to get the hunger shakes so I had to go home

Christine, I did 12 because I was trying to push myself. So, if I do 12 I should be doing 20 sec slow, 40 secs fast? I am not sure if I can do that, the 60 recovery helps me.
I am going to increase my speed for the 8-10 to 9.4 and see how that works. I tried 10.0, but I thought I was going to die.
Regarding incline, I am at 2.5%, should I try increasing it?

Re: WORKOUT LOG
Ok, so I didn't join the gym, I figured I have a treadmill here and knowing myself, I don't know if I'll get there, god knows I've wasted lot of money on gyms in the past. What I did do was buy one of the "Firm" tapes that works with weights. I did it today and felt great afterwards, I think I'll look into more of these.

I have a treadmill at home and it totally saves me when I don't get to the gym.
I would suggest you try the HIIT on the treadmill. Honestly, I was running miles at least 3 - 5 miles 4 days a week and not seeing results.
Now that I started the HIIT and weight training I am finally seeing and feeling results. I have to thank especiallly thank Christine (snowboardgirl and a couple of the other girls on here, Anniegirl, Beth1210, MrsA,Smileyd17, Gertyrae, tray831) for all their advice and support and motivation.
I love HIIT, I love the feeling of pushing myself for those 30 seconds! I feel stronger!

no need to increase the incline. I will post something on 'hill training' as soon as I can.
increase your speeds. it will be uncomfortable, but as long as you are not falling off, it should be uncomfortable.

Thank you for the recommendation! I have been doing a modified version of HIIT after reading all of these threads. My question is, does the timing intervals matter much? I have been doing a 5 min. warm up at 2.5 incline and then switch off between about 3.2 and 7.2. I am horrible at running so I have been doing 2 min. slow, 1 min fast. Is this bad? I definitley sweat ALOT and I feel like I'm getting a good workout, but I don't want to waste my time if it won't be beneficial. What do you think?

Re: WORKOUT LOG
Instead of doing an entire minute that fast, do it only for 30 seconds..........then an entire minute in between for rest at maybe a 3.5 area.
However, if you are able to run 7.2 for a full minute, then that means you can run even faster.
Next time, start out, with an 8.0 or 8.5 for 30 seconds and then go down to 3.5 for your rested minute. Then Repeat. If those 30 seconds seem to be a breeze, then up your 8.5 to 9.0 and so on.
You can even decrease your incline to 1.5% if you like, its the speed that counts.......and the constant fast---slow---fast---slow that makes it work
