    HIIT for me is an absolute game changer when it comes to wanting to mentally feel good and give my body and mind a reset/boost. The sheer benefits I get from 30min HIIT, 2-3 days a week, BLOWS resistance training out the water (when it comes to mental benefits). I'll never stop doing it

    HIIT was initially created by Dr. Isumi Tabata to improve VO2Max of elite athletes and HIIT delivered it really well ... fat loss was not it's main goal...but it does help in fat loss as a secondary effect by burning calories and helping to increase the calorie deficit which is primarily to be achieved through diet plan and further aided through exercise program that can comprise circuits, complexes, steady state cardio, or regular strength training.
    By the way, HIIT is a set of principles that can be applied to any of the above formats of exercise. It is not a separate type of exercise method.
    But if calorie deficit is missing, no amount of physical workouts shall help in fat loss.

    • @FlowLai
      @FlowLai 2 года назад +7

      Good breakdown. The other aspect is that high intensity training must be PERIODIZED. There's definitely a time and place for it, which is why most good training programs incorporate it, but only at the end. They're meant to be the finisher for a periodized training block, which is absolutely the most efficient way to utilize it, even for fat loss/performance.
      HIIT is meant to achieve peak performance or peak conditioning. But if that's all you do, then it'll lead to plateaus and injuries.

    I think if you are already doing traditional weight/resistance training with big compound lifts like squats, deadlift, lunges, pressing, etc then typical low intensity cardio is better choice than HIIT.
    Resistance training is already quite taxing for body, and doing higher rep sets of squat/lunges with heavy weights are already exhausting, burn lots of calories, and tax the cardiovascular system very effectively, and build enough conditioning.
    HIIT would be an overkill here. Plus it also requires that you have solid grip on correct form and technique of exercises so that you may remain safe while going all out multiple times under fatigued condition during the session. Many people simply lack it, especially if they are just starting out fitness journey after a sedentary lifestyle.

      @@seantorres4787 actually this trail was more on general fitness type.
      As you mention conditioning, this word today is vaguely used to mean different things like cardiovascular fitness, work capacity, general physical preparedness (GPP), and of course the actual conditioning.
      Conditioning is in fact very specific to the technical skill we intend to improve. It is a series of practice drills that improve our technical efficiency or address any weak point that is keeping us from optimal performance.
      For an MMA fighter it can mean practicing the kicks, punches, floor/mat work, bag work, grappling, sparing, etc.
      For baseball player it may include practicing throws, pitching, hitting, etc. For cricket game it is practice drills for batting, bowling, fielding, catching, etc.
      For powerlifters the close variations of big 3 that address & improve on sticking points and carryover to main lifts are the conditioning work.
      20 rep squats in fact build multiple modalities simultaneously like cardiovascular fitness to get through the gruelling series of 20 squats, overall work capacity, conditioning to improve squat technique, muscular strength, mental toughness.
      Running is a part of many sports and practicing the runs can certainly improve the related aspects in those games. For general fitness people like us, running is good for overall fitness and cardiovascular health.

No, they're not for everyone, such as the morbidly obese or for people wanting to build significant muscle mass, but when combined with a healthy diet HIIT (plus dumbbell exercises) are great for burning and keeping off fat and staying fit.

      Steady state cardio is making me feel better and I am also thinking of switching to isometric holds for training while phasing out conventional resistance training.

      HIIT exercise isn't about burning fat. Its about promoting hormone growth. And you will never get that with cardio. Don't get me wrong, I love a good 2 to 3 hour limit pushing bike ride on a hot day. The educated people doing HIIT are not looking to burn fat. You don't have to exercise at all to do that, just be fat adapted. And you don't need to go Keto or carnivore to achieve it.

Reving your hart rate to 90-95% 8-12 time in an hour is an advanced workout. Plyo jumps and sprints are hard on the joints so the cartilage needs to be prepered for that. Low impact cardio like biking, roller blading, crosscountry skiing ... can do that preparation. My favorite is doing nothing but coumpoung calisthenics exercices in circuit and dosing my rest time at the level that my cardio is able to handle. Some sort of a Dialed Intensity Interval Workout.

      HIIT isn't intended for losing weight. The biggest benefit from HIIT is it promotes hormone growth. And the older you get the more important that is. I think most people don't actually do HIIT though. They just call what they are doing HIIT.

    Wish they had spoken about HIIT in the aspect of Battle Ropes. It's my end of workout cardio, with less stress on the joints. To me, Battle Ropes is the upper body version of Sprints if done correctly. Most people try to go nonstop with different variations of upper body movements, when all it takes are intervals of 15-20sec as hard as you can

    I think this is so right. I will admit that when I do HIIT my body slims down and I look and feel great, but my body always gets injured and I end up having to take time off and then I end up gaining all the weight back. Just realized that maybe I shouldn't be doing HIIT

      any exercise that allows you to stay consistent is the best. If your body can’t handle HIIT, it’s better to do LISS for 20-30 mins everyday than get injured and not being able to walk for weeks. I learned the hard way

I've been doing HIIT-style workouts 5 days a week for several months, and my sleep has gotten worse, my anxiety has gotten worse and I generally feel like shit. It never occurred to me that the workouts could be negatively affecting me because I do enjoy them. But I think it's probably bad for me! I'm gonna change my workouts to traditional strength training and long walks/hikes for cardio and see what happens.

I just started resistance training this year, I joined a fitness app for women, it’s a great app, but in most of the programs the ‘Full Body day’ is usually just a bunch HIIT workouts I can’t do because of my poor mobility and bad knees. I’m in my 20s and I feel like I have to be able to do them, but I just simply can’t and also I hate them.

  • @MTPT299
    @MTPT299 3 года назад +3

    One of the issues we as trainers face,is that the vast majority of clients we get,just want to get beasted EVERY session.It's how we approach that mindset,and try to educate them.They tend to wonder why they're resting for 90 seconds,when they feel they should keep going.Many trainers will simply give them what they want,rather than try to alter their behaviour.I do use HIIT with some clients,obviously depending on their goals,but it will rarely be less than a 10 minute set.

  • @pchiethegreat1

    Why the anti-HIIT/cardio propaganda? I love your channel, guys. Big fan of Layne Norton too, but I just heard Sal in Laynes podcast go on and on about how HIIT and steady state isn’t very beneficial and RT is the only way to go.
    What if I was a recreational athlete and I wanted to improve my aerobic and anaerobic threshold, and conditioning in general?
    What if I was a personal trainer and I incorporate HIIT (with emphasis on exercise selection based on the clients capabilities) in a clients primarily RT-based program for fat loss (with ample recovery and rest, of course) in order to provide variety, mix things up and increase adherence, instead of doing the usual RT exercises with 3-4 sets and 8-12 reps of xyz exercise, because that can be quite repetitive.
    Not hating at all. I love your podcast. I just want to know why there is a sudden trend of exercise modality tribalism in the fitness space lately?

  • @AlainNicolas-David

    I can see why they have that opinion that not everyone will have the stability, mobility and endurance, possibly to handle a HIIT workout But at the same time, there are many ways to modify a hit workout to make it appropriate for most people. In addition, the intervals of the hit workout are modifiable. The way I’ve been doing it for years for all of my clients 2 to 3 times/week. I start with a 10 minute workout, which includes five toning exercises and five cardio exercises and each interval is between 30 seconds to 45 seconds with a 15 second to 30 second break from one exercise to the other. Doing it that way I’ve been able to gradually build my clients tolerance to be able to do the HIIT workout for up to 40-50 minutes 2 to 3 times/week. In addition, the exercises are also modifiable so it is important to be selective about what exercise you give to your clients to match their level.

    First off I don’t know why anyone would do HIIT if they are not in a certain physical condition. But I guess many do no not have common sense. I started a HIIT class only when I knew my body was ready physically after working out and had a proper diet for many months. Also I know my limitations and the class I takes offers different alternatives for each segment. I know how my knees function so when everyone else is on the treadmill, I use the Airdyne or rowing machine. I know my body and have no problem when doing HIIT

    When I ran cross country in high school, it was called practice. We didn't work that hard every practice though. I am going to be 60 soon, and I love HIIT. I also like long periods of maintaining a pace that pushes my limit. This video doesn't get into the science as to how HIIT affects your body. There is a lot more info about how and why HIIT is beneficial. Like promoting hormone growth to name one. And the older you get the more important that is. And you get very little to none with your typical cardio, and none with aerobic. Losing fat is the least important reason to do HIIT. Burning calories is just a stupid argument for any type of exercise. Of course it isn't for all people. Everyone is at a different level of fitness. Do people try to bench press 300 pounds the first time they lift weights? Of course not. Most people need to start with their crappy American diet first of all, and go on from there.
