Posts: 2,460 Rep Power: | Re: Hiit High Intensity Interval Training Periods of high intensity work, following by periods of low intensity/rest Once example is Tabatas on the Concept Rower - 20secs fast paced rowing, 1 secs rest, repeat another 7 times (so 8 times in total). |

HIIT is your post workout cardio. My personal favourite are Tabatas Thrusters TESTOSTERONE NATION - The Tabata Method | |

Okay here are some HIIT examples: Sprint 2 mins, walk 1 min, repeat 7 more times. Tabatas (20sec work/10secs rest) on either the concept rower or thrusters. Pick which one fits your workout. Hint: Don't do thrusters on the day you do shoulder shoulders, don't do concept rower on back day, don't do the sprints on legs day... Has that helped? Or am I just confusing things...?  | |
