3 High Intensity Interval Trainings That Work!
High Intensity Interval Training
Life can get very busy, and not many of us have the time or the ability to workout for multiple hours a day. Thankfully, high intensity interval training (known as HIIT) is the time-sensitive and highly effective solution we all have been looking for. HIIT is a workout that alternates between quick bursts of
high-intensity activity followed by rest or periods of low-intensity activity. Even just 15 minutes of
HIIT 3 times per week has shown to maximize aerobic and anaerobic fitness through increasing metabolic rate, muscle endurance, calorie burn (both during and after workouts), and promoting fat
burn while retaining muscle. Here are some ideas so you can easily squeeze HIIT into your hectic schedule and still have time to enjoy the rest of your day.
