HIIT or High Intensity Interval Training is just about the best way to lose weight, increase metabolism and burn fat. My Group Training Classes for Women get weekly HIIT workouts as assignments to speed up their progress....so they understand my passion for this all too well. There's so many different flavors and varieties of HIIT as I have my favorites but the best way to always get results is to change up your routine frequently. Never do the same thing over and over as your body will build up a tolerance for the workout thus giving you nothing but a "plateau effect."
Here's a small sample of HIIT programs:
Beginner HIIT program A
Warm Up 5 minutes
30 seconds of a sprint
90 seconds of a recovery
Repeat sprint and recovery 6-8 times
Beginner HIIT program B
Warm Up 5 minutes
60 seconds of a sprint
120 seconds of a recovery
Repeat sprint and recovery 6-8 times
These workouts can be done by:
* Walking/Jogging/Running outside or on a treadmill
* Biking Outside
* On an Elliptical
* On a Recumbant or Upright Bike
* On a step machine
