There's a brother that has a 30-day HIIT Challenge on his YouTube page. It's part of my YouTube workout playlist but it's at the end of my regular routine and I've only done part of it once. I wanted to give myself a week of moderate to high before going full on. I was thinking about starting that on May 16th and doing it up through my birthday.

Do you think the HIIT integration is responsible for your improved endurance?

I do think the HIIT is responsible. "They" say that it is one of the best for cardio vascular and for fat burning too. And you avoid the plateau. You get more bang for less effort and the metabolism boost lasts longer. I'm not doing those super hard workouts. I just do 1 min of squats or lunges or jumping jacks or the like. Then 1 min of something easy or just walking. Repeat 10 times. At first I did 2 minutes in the low intensity. I'm gradually reducing that and adding harder exercises to the high.

You can do whatever exercise you are doing in a HIIT workout style. Just alternate higher intensity with lower intensity.

@Ama T Opare Yeah that's good to hear/read about you feeling the results. I try to do that with my in home workouts. But I might do a guided HIIT activity.

I've joined the challenge as well. I had gained 15lbs eating carbs and could not fit into my clothes. I have now lost that through my routine diet and added exercise. I am maintaining my healthy diet and continue to exercise every morning. Since Spring/Summer is here I also do more morning rituals in the Sun which add to my Vitamin D intake. My goal is to stay fluid Mind, Body and Soul.

I really don't see how that is HIIT. Yes it's high intensity but I don't see the low intensity intervals between each high intensity piece. In my understanding the low intensity piece is key to getting the cardio and metabolism benefits.

[Nataki]

I haven't done the it yet but when you watch you see that it is HIIT. Some of the moves are high intensity. Then there are 60 secondbreaks and low intensity moves like at minute 3:28 10:33 14 14:20. 15 18:30 etc

Ex move at 24:34 is low intensity the next move at
26:37 is high intensity.

It doesn't have to alternate high and low intensity between each move. It just should alternate high and low intensity throughout the workout at different intervals. For example you can do to one song, a high intensity workout comprises of many moves. Then you can follow up with a short rest song that is also comprised of many moves.

I had to vary mine a lot otherwise I get bored. I love dancing so if I ever feel like I don't want to work out, just by turning on the playlist it makes me want to get up and dance with it.  :-)
