High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is a type of exercise where you do short bursts of intense work followed by a rest period. It is a great way for losing fat and getting fit. There are many gyms that offer HIIT classes which make it even easier to get this done and you won’t have to think about what exercises to do.
Here are five reasons why HIIT is a great option for losing fat:
- Burns more calorites: HIIT makes your body burn calories quickly. Once you are done exercising your body can continue to burn calories. This will help you with losing fat.
- Saves time! We all are short on time, whether you are a busy parent, student, working or just running low on time, this is a great form of exercise. You can get a great workout completed in 15-30 minutes!
- Keeps your muscles STRONG: HIIT makes your muscles work, and work hard. The more muscle you have the more calories you will burn.
- Helps with blood sugar: HIIT has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, meaning your body becomes more efficient at using glucose for energy. This can help with fat loss and is important for overall health. It can also help prevent problems like diabetes.
- Use fat for energy: During and after HIIT, your body can use stored fat for energy. This will help you lose more fat!
