HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) -cardio workout that actually work and take nearly no time!

HIIT 30 second Workout

The 30 Second workout is the ideal place to start with Interval training.

Most beginner workouts start with 30 seconds workouts, If you are beginner please make sure that you stretch, warm up and warm down properly for every workout.

If you are aiming at training above your lactate threshold you need to go fast enough to feel that the last few seconds feel almost impossible to keep running. Everything in your body should be burning. If you are fit and are not getting to this point in the sprint intervals, don’t save yourself for later, give it all up front, go harder and then try and survive through the rest of the workout.

Start this with 6 intervals and gradually migrate to 12. Rest periods also come down from 90 seconds to 30 seconds. Remember to warm up and cool down properly

What diet should you do?

First off, get the word "diet" out of your vocabulary. Switch it out with "way of life". Here is a link that gives a brief explanation of the what we call the "zone". This way of life will change the way you look at food forever. I am hooked now for about a year and half and will never go back. I hope you check it and allow yourself to reap the benefits I have to keep a fresh looking lean body!
