Description

This intense HIIT workout for total body gains is tailored to your level of fitness.

HIIT stands for High Intensity Interval Training. HIIT is one of the most popular and effective training methods. Not only does it burn fat; it also challenges your muscles. High-intensity exercise phases (50 seconds) alternate with recovery phases (10 seconds). You can rest for up to 90 seconds after each round. Repeat the circuit 5-6 times.

If you need more challenge than the Military Plank, try replacing it with a Superman Plank.

Always make sure that your exercise is clean and controlled and keep your body under tension.

Warm up well before you start training! Have fun with our workout.
