High intensity interval cardio workout is the kind of exercise where you alternate short periods of intense physical with less less intense recovery periods.
Also called HIIT, you can undertake the exercise until you get too exhausted to continue.
The less intense recovery periods can be brisk walks or dance sessions. It could also comprise slow boxing into the air.
When done right, HIIT can deliver you a much of what you expect from a healthy cardio, including:
- …burning fat
- …elevating your heart rate
- …pushing you to sweat
- …improving lung capacity
HIIT is great for those who cannot afford long hours at the gym.
