I did Cathes 30/30 Hiit followed by Cher's step workout! I love doing SS lately but I can't help thinking all the Hiit is what has my numbers sooo good and get scared to quit. Every time I gt blood work done the nurse & or Dr. always asks me what I do?

I've always read that HiiT is a twice or at most three times a week workout, because you need to recover from that level of intensity.

But I'm frail and have a bit of rheumatism. Goldilocks finds a better match with lengthy intervals (which are bell-curve in intensity). I'm always pacing/choreographing my own stuff. Someday the science will drive the marketing, and meet me where I am.

LOL. Remember, nothing will work unless you actually do it.
True, We vididiots have been exercising like this for years. Cathe called them intervals and blasts before Hiit. Hiit is supposed to be when you train so hard you go anerobic. I think intervals aren't has hard. I prefer steady state but lately, all you can find is Hiit. Personally, I mix it up and listen to my body. If I paid attention to every study that came out I'd be crazier than I already am. |

Sorry that's a long story, but I totally agree that we all have to adapt to make things work the best for us.

Well I tried that type of workout yesterday, and I found out that I could only go a few minutes after completing the Hiit. Just had no juice left to keep going. Maybe that means I need to work on getting more fit, not sure.

One of my friends (personal trainer and R.D.) designed a treadmill routine for me based on this same principle. I lost so much weight doing that 3-4x a week. NOW keep in mind this was 15 years ago, and I was in my mid 20s then and lost weight fairly easily.
But I'll have to tell her that she was ahead of the trend! |
