Welcome back, fitness enthusiasts!
Today we are discussing the benefits of high-intensity interval training, also known as HIIT. Did you know that healthy adults should be getting a weekly minimum of 150 minutes of moderate exercise, 75 minutes of intense exercise, or a combination of both? HIIT is basically exercising in repeated bursts of – you guessed it – high-intensity exercise with periods of rest in-between. Research published in the Keio Journal of Medicine online in August of 2016 shows that HIIT is excellent for building elevated fitness levels in a short amount of time. HIIT improves many things, including aerobic capacity, endurance, and your overall power output, far more efficiently than standard routines. And thanks to the fact that it’s a safe exercise method which doesn’t take up a lot of time, HIIT is very beneficial for helping patients maintain or regain quality fitness levels.
