Hmm, how should I go about doing HIIT?
I usually do 15 incline, 3-4 mph on the treadmill before I lift just to warm my body up. I wanted to start really incorporating cardio since I never do it.
For 20 mins:
30 secs running
1:30 jogging
30 running
1:30 jogging
And so on, and so on
I would be doing that on an elliptical...is that sufficient cardio post workout?
20 mins is pretty long for HIIT. i like doing it for 15 mins. i'd also cut the jogging to 1:00 and running (90% effort) to 20 secs. if you can, do this on a track instead of the elliptical.
