3 reasons why you should try HIIT workouts

POLOKWANE – Over the past few weeks Body Life Trainer, Heinrich Wolhüter, has been discussing High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), the perfect training for those who don’t always have time to hit the gym.

Here are some reasons why HIIT is one of the best exercises for you to get in shape (according to www.dailyburn.com, there are three main reasons for you to start doing HIIT exercises)
• It increases your metabolism because the high-intensity training combined with the interval training results in excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) which speeds up your metabolic rate for up to 48 hours, which means you will still be burning fat even after you left the gym.
• The exercises are quick and convenient.
HIIT can be done anywhere, be it at the gym, your house or even in a park, and it will only take 30 minutes, sometimes even less which means you will always have enough time to exercise.
• There is no equipment needed because you generally only use your own body weight to do the exercises which results in optimal muscle building and getting your heart rate up.
These are three of the many reasons for you to start doing HIIT exercises, it is the perfect training for those who don’t always have time to hit the gym.
