The 20-second-on-and-10-second-off HIIT structure is a perfect way to encourage things, and effective during a workout — even if you don't do high impact exercises. That's why we've put together a cardio workout interval that uses only low-impact moves, so even beginners can reap the rewards of high-intensity interval training that boosts metabolism.
What You Need To Know?
Many other people think of high-impact movements like jump squats, star jumps, and burpees when they think of HIIT, but the reality is that HIIT can be linked to their own level of fitness. For example, if you feel challenging 20 seconds of stomping on the spot and you believe like you likely won't go on much longer by the end of that interval, congrats; you are practicing high-intensity interval coaching officially. It's wonderful because HIIT is incredibly effective not only in reducing body fat but also in rapidly increasing endurance and improving insulin sensitivity and regulating blood sugar, just to name a few of the many benefits.
Although taking it easy on your joints does not really mean you need to absolutely miss out on cardio – just concentrate on low-impact sports, Sulaver says. For example, to take the tension off your knees and ankles, select activities for which at least one foot must still remain in contact with the ground (or equipment). Walking, bicycling, and elliptical exercise are all strong examples of low aerobic effect compared to higher-impact hopping and running.
