Millie Slater, a 20-year-old marketing executive from Northamptonshire, has captivated the internet with her remarkable weight loss journey. Slater, who initially weighed 115 kilograms in January 2023, has shed an impressive 48 kilograms, bringing her weight down to a lean 67 kilograms. Her transformation has garnered widespread attention, with her TikTok video showcasing her toned physique accumulating over 400,000 views.
In her viral video, Slater attributes her success to a disciplined and balanced approach to fitness and nutrition, after struggling with ineffective fad diets. She emphasized the importance of regular gym sessions, calorie logging, and focusing on protein consumption while maintaining a caloric deficit.
In an interview with Newsweek, Slater detailed how incorporating specific gym strategies significantly boosted her results. She revealed that integrating weight training and incline walking on the treadmill played a crucial role in her fitness regime. Slater’s approach mirrors the popular 12-3-30 treadmill workout, which was popularized by influencer Lauren Giraldo. This workout involves walking at a 12 percent incline at 3 miles per hour for 30 minutes, a method Slater found particularly motivating and effective.
The 12-3-30 workout is known for its ability to burn a substantial number of calories while being a low-impact exercise. According to Slater, making exercise enjoyable and incorporating activities like incline walking can be highly beneficial for maintaining fitness. This approach aligns with recent findings from the Journal of Biomechanics, which states that walking at a 5 percent incline burns 17 percent more calories and a 10 percent incline burns 32 percent more calories compared to walking on a flat surface.
