HIIT 5 times a week?

[Arniefan]

For the last 2 weeks ive been doing HIIT on a bike.
I do:
3 min warmup
30 sec hard 30sec low
3 min cooldown
The total comes to 29.5 mins

I was just wounder if doing this 5 days a week is to much? If it is how many days should I do it and what should I do inbetween those days? My aim is fat loss

Ur doing intervals, not HIIT

Anyway, personaly i would either do intervals EOD or 2 on 1 off


I doubt you will overtrain doing them but would rather add some more low intensity cardio in as a way to help recovery from the intervals if u need it

Just try what u think and see how ur body responds


Real HIIT 5 day a week is a big no no IMO

For HIIT, I like to suggest the ACSM recommendation of 20 mins a day 3 times a week, that is for high intensity cardiovascular exercise.
