By | 2 years ago
Looking to break a sweat with your workout routine this year? If you can’t make it to your local gym, fear not – we’ve rounded up some of the best online HIIT classes so you can get your fitness fix at home.
What is a HIIT workout?
A high-intensity workout ideal for building lean muscle and burning fat, a HIIT session is designed to amp up your heart rate through short bursts of activity. In a HIIT workout, you’ll be undertaking short bouts of exercise lasting from 10 to 60 seconds, followed by a period of active recovery for the same amount of time. This cycle of exertion and recovery is repeated multiple times depending on the workout, and can either be made up of individual exercises or be part of a repeated circuit.
