I find the scale moves after a stall if I start adding in brief HIIT a few times a week. Because of health issues I'm not allowed to do high impact anymore or lift anything over my head and I have some vertigo so things that involve changing from standing to horizontal moves ie burpees make me very dizzy.
I'd love to incorporate more HIIT but finding things I can safely do has been my biggest challenge. I have found that adding the short beginning step segment from Cathe's Athletic Training has been helping. That's not HIIT but it gets my heart rate up, but I think that's because my cardio endurance has declined over the years since taking the impact out of my workouts. I do think adding short bursts of more intense cardio (that is different for everyone) whether it is true HIIT or not has benefits. |

I hate HIIT. I am lazy and don't want to work that hard. I'd rather spend hours doing steady state. I'll do the bursts, as Tugger mentioned, but I don't do true HIIT. I'm injured and am limited on what I can do but even if I wasn't, I still wouldn't be doing HIIT. I think my laziness overcomes my desire to lose fat. Erica |

Fitness with PJ just posted a HIIT workout for all levels.
https://youtu.be/e3lEqsFrhTY This is the second time I’ve seen a workout posted shortly after we talked about the type of workout. Probably just a coincidence, but I did appreciate the new workout!
