***The HIIT Thread***

[slfmade]

I do 30 sec all out sprint followed by 90 sec rest. Total of 20 min.

I remember back in my HS football days my coach had us do bleachers. Sprint up the bleachers and walk back down. These were about 50 step bleachers. I was in the best CV shape of my life back then and these KILLED me.

The HS stadiums are open to the public during non school hours. As soon as I move back in May I'm planning on using this method for my HIIT. I would think this would be ideal HIIT. What are you thoughts?

The most effective form of HIIT is what base posted in post #2 above. 100% maximum effort, preferably uphill, followed by a minimal recovery period, done 10 - 15 times. Stadium steps = perfect.
