Spring Training - HIIT


Back to the subject of HIIT - high intensity interval training. There’s a couple great articles on bodybuilding.com discussing the benefits of HIIT with sample routines and body blasting workouts.

A nice short and to the point article can be found here. A great quote from the article when speaking about the usual forms of cardio workouts - “the monotony, non-creativity, invested time, and scramble for equipment takes its toll on most everyone I know. I shudder, mop the gym floor and polish the mirrors furiously, instead. Very practical and also works.”

So reduce your cardio workout time by performing less medium intensity exercising and focus on high intensity. Spend your time wisely.
