Your H.I.I.T. Crash Course
What is H.I.I.T training?
H.I.I.T. (a.k.a. High-Intensity Interval Training) involves short interval of high intensity training followed up by a low intensity recovery period.
H.I.I.T. burns more calories in less time
A study comparing 30 minutes of HIIT, weight training, running and biking found that HIIT burned 25-30% more calories than other forms of exercise.
The fat keeps burning
HIIT raises the metabolic rate higher for hours after exercise. As long as you kicked ass during your workout, you’ll burn fat later – even if you’re just watching TV.
Exercise would be more fun if calories screamed as you burned them.
