Hi All - I just wanted to share another cardio circuit that I enjoy doing post lift. This is a HIIT circuit - for those of you that are unfamiliar with HIIT it stands for, "High Intensity Interval Training." HIIT cardio uses a system of work-hard then recovery intervals, alternating between high intensity workouts with short resting periods. Studies show that, "15 minutes of high intensity interval training burns more calories than jogging on a treadmill for an hour." - Health Fitness Revolution
If you repeat this circuit for the recommended 4x - I promise, you'll be feeling it ;) If you have health restrictions though, please make the necessary accommodations.
