A HIIT workout, also known as High Intensity Interval Training, is becoming one of my favorite workouts. Actually, I did this kind of workout all the time without actually knowing it. I would always do a bout of crunches, squats, & push ups to the point of-really feeling it (oh my burning muscles!). So for a bit of "relief" in the middle of my workout, I'd throw in some yoga, planking & wall sits. Just something to give my body a bit of a break before I went back at it. So it's the bouts of short, high intensity intervals, combined with low intensity bouts that make it a HIIT workout. Which in turn is actually a better calorie burn & a lengthier time of having your metabolism elevated.
So I figured that if I was more or less doing a HIIT workout, I might as well actually follow a few with more of a variety of exercises.
Here's a roundup of some of my favorite HIIT workouts!
I need to learn exercise names, because every time I want to do some of these that I find, I have no idea what they are.
ReplyDeleteHA!! Me too! I'm always like "what IS that?"
DeleteAwesome routine! There are so much to do in such little time we have!
ReplyDeleteYou get on with your bad self, reading that wore me out :-p Now I'm hungry haha
ReplyDeleteI really wish that I could do an exercise plan like this, but 1) one of my knees hates squatting exercises and 2) I live in an apartment and I'm always afraid the lady below can here me jumping around : (
ReplyDeleteI was tired reading this, really. But I think it's awesome you've got your workout so organized! I hit the treadmill in the morning and that's it, I really need to mix things up a bit.

ReplyDeleteThey all look really good. I try to do some at home exercises.
ReplyDeleteYou are speaking a foreign language to me. I need a class on what they are and how they are done, and then I can actually get into the workout and that will be another story. I have done Zumba, crossfit, and yoga... and... that's it!
