⏱ BENEFITS OF INTERVAL TRAINING #2 ⏱
Better Exercise Adherence!
According to studies, people enjoy HIIT far more than vigorous-intensity exercise or continuous moderate-intensity exercise. The benefits of exercise only happen if you do it regularly, and you’ll be more likely to stick to a workout you love than something that is monotonous, unrewarding, or just plain boring!

⏱ BENEFITS OF INTERVAL TRAINING #1⏱:
Burn more calories!
Did you know that HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) will burn more calories during and after a workout than a continuous aerobic format? The bursts of increased intensity increase your caloric expenditure. You’ll even continue burning calories for up to two hours after exercise due to the effect of EPOC (exercise post-oxygen consumption), a measurably increased rate of oxygen intake following strenuous activity!
Exercise Fights COVID, New Study Reveals
Did you know that even small amounts of exercise can help you fight against a COVID infection? Check out The Washington Post article that outlines this amazing study:
“Men and women who worked out at least 30 minutes most days were about four times more likely to survive covid-19 than inactive people, according to an eye-opening study of exercise and coronavirus outcomes among almost 200,000 adults in Southern California.
The study found that exercise, in almost any amount, reduced people’s risks for a severe coronavirus infection. Even people who worked out for as little as 11 minutes a week — yes, a week — experienced lower risks of hospitalization or death from covid than those who moved about less.”
