HIIT
High Intensity Interval Training,
is a training technique in which you give all-out, one hundred percent effort
through quick, intense bursts of exercise, followed by short recovery periods.
This type of training gets and keeps your heart rate up and burns more fat in
less time. High Intensity Workout increases the body’s need for oxygen during
the effort and creates an oxygen shortage, causing your body to ask for more
oxygen during recovery. This after burn effect is reason why intense exercise
will help burn more fat and calories than regular aerobic and steady state
workouts.
Here are a few benefits from HIIT
Increases
Your Metabolism
HIIT speeds your metabolic rate and increases
metabolism boost for up to 48 hours after a complete HIIT routine. This means
you’ll still be burning fat even after you’ve left the gym.
Quick
and Convenient
HIIT workouts can be done anywhere: at
home, in a hotel room, in a park, at a gym, etc. And most are 30 minutes or
less.
No
Equipment Necessary
HIIT workouts generally use only your
body weight, since the focus is on getting your heart rate up and keeping it there.
These workouts result in optimal muscle building and muscle retention couples
with fat loss and increased calorie burn.
