The "aerobic=bad" is in the context of strength training and aerobic activity as a supplementary exercise.
Not sure what you mean by "sickly"m but many people, men and women, tend to have a "drawn...

That is a good start, can even be a good warm up for HIIT.
The 2:1 ratio is important when you get to actual HIIT.
Wither it be 2 minutes W/1 minute break (moderate pace) or 1 minute W/30 second...

The key, as stated in the article, is the intensity.
You just have to work up to it and not just go for it.
Probably over a period of 6 workouts or so.
Warm up for 5 min before and cool down for 5...

Ah dude, its simple:
Power workout:
6 rounds, 1 minute on, 30 second break.
Go full on, fast and hard as you can, but not non-stop ( you are allowed to adjust for positioning), but you must drill...

LOL !
Amazing how the people on the Tabata protocol were doing 170% eh?

Now imagine going OVER the 100%...

In both studies the Vo2 was in the 70's, the typical moderate pace of most exercises that are don for prolonged periods.

Not sure what the point of those studies were, I mean:





That can...

Oi vey !!

Yes, HIIT tends to burn fat AFTER one is finished exercising.
It speeds up the body metabolisim and the body continues to burn fat for some time after the actual exercise period is over.

Here is the thing about HIIT, you CAN'T do more, even if you wanted to.

HIIT is like running the 200 meters as fast as you can, stopping for 10 seconds and doing it again and repeating that 8...

That MAY actually mean 10-16 total minutes per week.
I do like Chad's stuff by the way.

As you can see by the link to the actual Tabata method, no way you are gonna go at 170% for 10 minutes.

The Tabata method is this one:

An interesting comparision of Tabata abd another HIIT.

Yes, I would love to read that article.

Thanks.

Where did you see the Tabata's intervals being done for 15 mins?
The protocol, if I recall, is 8 "sets" of 20 seconds of HIIT with 10 seconds...

I don't see how anyone can do even 15 min of HIIT, not if they are truly intense.
The vast majority of studies (like the Tabata) that show the huge benefit of HIIT are ones where they intensity is...

I am sure he will, like we all do.
:D

Many people that "also run" or use running as the main focus of their "fat burning regime" tend to get many of those symptoms, and like all things, many don't.

In my opinion, we must have a balanced training regime, balanced with Strenght training, flexability, anerobic cardio - HIIT and your typical moderate paced aerobic activity.

I thought this...
