Don't bother with Treadmill daily.

I responded to another guy in the sports section relting to a basketball question. The info I posted there, should be adequate for you as well to get you started :).

In your case just substitute the basketball practice sessions for some Treadmill work. 30 minues should be fine, on around a level 2 setting, then each week increase the interval until you're around level 5.

Keep using a 3mph speed, then when you hit level 5, add 0.2mph each week, to increase intensity.

If at any time it feels a bit much, just use the down arrow and drop down a level. That can be done even on a pre-programmed setting.

Hey,

If I were you, just stick to bodyweight exercises for now.

I recommend:
Pushups and its variations like hindu pushups, elevated pushups, alligator pushups, frog pushups
Pull Ups
Chin Ups
Inverted Rows
Two legged jumping exercises like frog jumps, vertical jumps, depth jumps
One legged stationary exercises like 1 leg romanian deadlift, 1 leg squats

Hoped i helped
