At Answer is Fitness in Foxboro, MA, we believe interval training (HIIT) is one of the most effective ways to reach your fitness goals—whether you’re aiming for weight loss, increased endurance, or muscle strength. The best part? You can customize it to fit your unique objectives! Here’s how:
Weight Loss: Focus on high-intensity intervals with short rest periods to keep your heart rate elevated.
Endurance: Use moderate-to-high intensity intervals with slightly longer work periods to improve stamina.
Strength: Incorporate bodyweight or resistance exercises with longer rest for muscle recovery.
Speed and Power: Short bursts of maximal effort with longer rest periods help improve speed and explosiveness.
For fat loss, try jump squats, burpees, and mountain climbers.
For endurance, include sprints, cycling, or rowing.
For strength, use push-ups, squats, lunges, and weights.
For speed, focus on sprints, shuttle runs, and box jumps.
Fat loss: 1:1 or 2:1 (30 seconds work, 15 seconds rest).
Endurance: 2:1 or 3:1 (45 seconds work, 15 seconds rest).
Strength: 1:2 or 1:3 (30 seconds work, 1 minute rest).
Speed: 1:3 or 1:4 for maximum effort during sprints.
Start with manageable intervals and increase intensity or duration over time. Progressively challenge yourself as your fitness improves.
Always warm up before starting and cool down after. This helps prevent injury and ensures proper muscle recovery.
Customizing your interval training is one key to achieve your fitness goals faster. At Answer is Fitness, we can help you create a personalized plan that works for you. Contact us today to get started!
