I don't think you watched the video. It's about YOUR body,

I just lost gains reading these comments. I better go lift some keto

The number one biathlon athlete in the world trains with HITT….4x Per month. It has its place just like everything else, just in very limited quantities.

"HIIT cardio kills your gains" - Is that you Jeff Cavaliere?

Thanks for this comment- trying to learn to much fitness information can often just leave me paralyzed

Right and wrong, If you want to get the “fuller” look then you do resistance too you do both, but yeah hiit can be exhilarating

The mental aspect of HIIT is understated. I do it to feel good. Everything else is bonus

HIT type training helps me sleep much better.

Then good for you pal, my joint hurt after hiit and hiit is just, too much stress in 10-15 min for some people. People like me 😂

Yawn......

For real, too much stress in 10-15 min

That's a healthy dose

terrible. lots of coaches are like that, super annoying. LSS is the way to go... body needs a base foundation of conditioning to even get into something like that

Walking is the greatest cardio workout known to man

ditch those trainers. I am also overweight, I had to find low impact knee friendly cardio to do on youtube as I can’t run. Don’t force yourself to do HIIT until your body is ready. It’s better to start off with LISS and stay consistent with it for months/years until your body is ready for HIIT

Totally. I've discovered walking and kettlebell swings. I have no plan to ever run again, regardless of my weight.

@@dale5497 the slower you go, the faster you'll get there 🙂 don't give up and discipline, consistency is more important than the goal weight

That’s the fitness world for you

@@thegoldenrooster8376 🤦‍♀️so true

Lift heavy things 2 to 3 times a week. Keep the yoga if you enjoy it.

Actually left crossfit and started lifting. Feeling much stronger with less injuries, glad I watched this video

@@riseandshine-motivateme1319 appreciate the update

You don't need weights for HIIT

@@rampagesmackssons508 it can be both ways. HIIT is actually a framework that uses timed intervals of activity and rest and requires very high level effort to keep cardiovascular system at its peak. HIIT can be applied to bodyweight exercises, sprinting & running based movements, or to resistance based exercises.

if you think squats for 20 reps is gonna condition you, ur dumb. the only way to build conditioning is running

@@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.

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.

@@FlowLai yes bro, everything works well when used properly otherwise results don't come as expected.

Great comment.

Why did I read that as "battle raps" 😂 I guess you would want better stamina for that

@@Teal0909 I think if someone has high bp to the point that they feel dizzy from HIIT, then HIIT may not be a good idea. However, if someone is healthy or hypertension is mild, HIIT would be a wonderful tool to remain healthy and keep away hypertension.

Great advice, taking it slow helped me lose 77lbs and am a fairly lean 154lbs now, took over a year but it was worth it, just chipped away at it consistently doing nothing crazy.

Hiit is only good for a health strong individual in normal weight BMI not for fat and obese people

They acknowledged that here - however, ‘train like an athlete’ and ‘every able body’ should have a wider gulf in your logic and sentence, I think.

And training like an athlete should involve living like an athlete too, which isn’t reasonable for most

@@TheAbear53 correct. Too many people think training like an athlete is working your ass off in the gym for an hour and then sit around the rest of the day doing nothing when athletes should be active all throughout every day, whether It be walking, running, jogging, stretching, skipping, lifting. The body should always be active and warm for those that want to train like athletes.

@@ELTAxGAMERS “the body should always be active and warm….” I don’t know about that. Recovery is very important. Training like an athlete doesn’t mean working out 24/7. I would imagine they have at LEAST 1 full day of the week where they do nothing at all but maybe stretch & recover.

@@kiliabgonzalez7826 I think your misinterpreting what I'm saying. I'm not saying they have to drive to muscular failure in every activity they do. Stretching like you suggested is going to make the body active and warm like I said. Recovery doesn't mean sitting on your ass. Active recovery is the best recovery. The human body is made for movement.

Not intense enough and too long to bear

25 min straight? True hiit should only be sets of 20-30 seconds of 100% maximum intensity then letting your heart rate drop all the way down to low 100s then repeat.. For 15-30 min total

Poor sleep is from burning too many calories and too big a deficit most likely from the HIIT

That's because it is being wrecked. Most people are already sympathetic dominant in terms of their nervous system. They need a walk in the woods or some time doing yoga, or meditating.

You would have to be a machine to go for 25 minutes straight. You just did a hard workout. Your heart rate was where you want to get it though. 220 minus your age.

That's awesome, HIIT and other forms of cardio are amazing for heart health! Strength training also has a lot of cardiovascular benefits. Are you doing any form of strength training in addition to your HIIT workouts?

You lifted while reading the Bible? That's dedication

My myopia in my one eye exacerbated due to high calories and weight training. So it's not just HIIT which can increase it. Basically you go to extremes. It wouldn't be good. 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. I feel so much better and since my myopia is minor, I sometimes feel no need to use glasses after a decent regular cardio workout. It actually takes off the pressure I think.

Going to be 60 myself. Agreed. They only really talk about their opinions and never get into the science behind HIIT. I think because they didn't know it. Maybe they do now.

Wtf? What kind of hiit are you doing?

You need a better drug dealer

Just take roids same same

😳

@@hyldgaard9999must be a hit of drugs and they're so high they confused the two

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.

So excited for you!

5 days a week is way too much 😮 I do twice a week, eat healthy, combine Pilates and ive been doing well. Tbf I am not overweight I just have some belly fat

I am exactly in the same situation, I started hating exercise, until today in another KZfaq channel I heard the same thing. I am also very anxious person, a mum with under age kids, having sleep problems, and working out start to feel like a burden not like something for my health, so I am excited to change my working out plan and see. Thank you guys

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

Dont exceed 15 minutes HIIT once a week, include LISS twice a week. Build up to 25 minute HIIT then take a deload week where you go back to 10-15minutes. Keep the LISS, spend the majority of your time on resistance training.

@@albireoadam3966 Great answer, great advice!

Look into Dr. Peter Attia and zone 2 training. He talks about it on a recent Joe Rogan podcast. Zone 2 is your all day cardio pace. Probably the most beneficial form of cardio overall.

1 & 2 are beyond ridiculous. So you need to be able to bench press your own weight to run, swim, ride as hard as you can for 20, 30 seconds for a few reps? Or be under 15% body fat? The question I have for you is, why? Get you where first? 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.

@@robshell5367 I'm a big fan off HIIT. I'm doing some right now. The only thing is that when done properly, it's not for beginners specialy when you're older. 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.

Older people need it more. There is a reason why you only do it 3 times a week if that.

You left out promotes hormone growth. Which is the biggest benefit the older you get.

🤘🏼

👍

Diet, i got a 6pack for the first time in my life at 36yrs old not doing any real cardio or hiit. I lift weights 4times a week and and walk on an incline for 10-15mins before each weight lifitng session. Pretty wimpy basic bitch workout and im a fat guy naturally who got cut cuz my diet was immaculate. I found my bmr then added my activity level using the mifflin st jeor equation then calculated my macros so i would lose 1.5lbs a week and i even tracked my micros and water intake.

Weights are not ideal, you are supposed to use as many muscles as possible during the 20, 30 seconds.

It’s not lol

@@MindPumpShow yes it is lol listen to Mike Mentzer and you will understand

Nothing wrong with HIIT

Nothing wrong with CrossFit.
