How To Get The Most Out Of Your HIIT Workout?

Love high intensity interval training?

Want to make sure you get the most from each workout?

Who doesn't?

I'm going to show you how to make sure your HIIT workouts count.

3 Rules To Get More From Your HIIT Workouts

Rule 1: Give 100% To Each Interval

Kindal going hardcore and giving everything she has to knock out over 100 alternating battle ropes.

This is hard to do. I mean truly giving 100% is tough... our brain is going to fight the instinct. But this is also why intervals are typically short.

Because they're short... you need to go hard... and get your heart rate up until the interval is over.

The issue is, as the workout goes on it gets harder and harder to truly push 100% effort during each interval.

But this is what also makes you stronger... faster... better!

Rule 2: Choose The Correct Exercises

The keys to the right exercises are:

Exercises where you can move fast...
Exercises you can go from one to the next with easier transitions...
Exercises that get your heart rate up fast!

Here are some of my favorite exercises:

Kettlebell swings
Bodyweight (or light) squats
Sprints (even if they are short)
Bike or row machine
Mt. climbers
Battle ropes
Burpees

There are so many more!

Rule 3: Don't Give Up On Your Work : Rest Ratio

What is the work : rest ratio?

It's how much exercise time you have compared to how much rest time.

The most famous work : rest ratio is Tabata..

20 seconds of exercise
10 seconds or rest

As you get tired... you might want to change your 15 second rest to 20 seconds.

Don't do it. Keep pushing hard.

If you keep pushing... no matter how tough it is... you'll keep getting better. What once was really hard for you... will become easier and easier.

What's Your Favorite Interval Ratio?

Personally... I love 45 seconds or exercise paired with 15 seconds of rest.

45 seconds is pretty long for exercise but I enjoy the challenge or trying to push super hard for that long.

It's long enough for things to get REALLY HARD and then it's rest time! But that 15s rest goes fast.
