I cannot run, I cannot jump. Cannot even do a jumping jack. What would you suggest for a high interval exercise that I can do for four minutes without severely injuring myself. Thank you I have very bad knees. I cannot run, I cannot jump. Cannot even do a jumping jack. What would you suggest for a high interval exercise that I can do for four minutes without severely injuring myself.

Thank you

My question is, is it ok to lift weights after an HIIT session? I'd also like to know how many days it's ok for me to workout every week? and how many of those days should be lifting and/or HIIT? I'd greatly appriciate any helpful response my email is l.gante_nl@yahoo.com or Henryg.sosa@yahoo.com PS: I'm 19 weigh 165 and my goal is to get riped in 16 weeks or as fast as possible THANK YOU!

This piece of equipment allows you to perform "sprints", "hill running" and many other strength training exercises in just minutes a day... It's used by many professional athlete associations so I figured I'd give it a shot. I’m anxiously awaiting the arrival of my X-iser (www.xiser.com).

Thanks for the article. Professional athletes use this method because it boosts top speed and endurance at the same time. However, to get the full benefits, you need to really SPRINT, go all out, for about 20 seconds. Then take 4 minutes rest. Four minutes is the time it takes for your ATP channels to fully recharge. If you're unfamiliar with ATP, just do a search, it's fundamental to how your muscles work. If you don't take the time to recover between intervals, you're risking injury and causing damage to your muscles without necessarily burning more fat. Side-note: doing high-intensity exercise like HIIT encourages your body to continue burning fat throughout the day, whereas the calorie-burning from jogging stops when you stop. So: 20 seconds sprint hard, 4 minutes walking, then repeat for about 20 minutes total (4 intervals).

I have been loosing weight for a while (lost 140 pounds) now need to amp it up somehow. I jog madly around my living room for a minute, then pace slowly until I recover, then repeat. can do up to 15 minutes now and am seeing results in just a short time. Thanks for the info.

I normally do this for 20 minutes a day (the longer rest time between sprints allows me to go longer) and I get phenomonal results. One more thing that helps is to get an MP3 player, and program the songs to change every 30 seconds or whatever time you're doing - keeps you motivated and pumped! Try It! You won't be disappointed.
