Altered Beast
This has been around for a very long time. Some might say HIIT has been a recent phenomenon, but it has been used for thousands of years. That may come as a surprise to some but it's true. We define interval training as a method of training, especially in athletics, that involves alternating between aerobic and non-aerobic exercise in the same session. High Intensity Interval training is what we get when we do exercises at high intensity followed by intervals for breaks. It focuses on achieving mainly non-aerobic work-out conditions.
I did say it has been around for thousands of years. Did you ever wonder how our great ancestors lived? Prehistoric man lived as hunters and gatherers. They had to fight for their survival, they had to fight for the right to eat, to drink, and to avoid deadly animals. Do you think they ever jogged about at an average pace? Do you think they even went for a jog? It was too dangerous to do that. Prehistoric man had to do hard sprinting in order to catch that wild boar. Prehistoric man had to move very quickly to escape that wild beast. It was a very active life. Our ancestors were forced to do this by their conditions, they built muscle mass from this rigorous active lifestyle. Nowadays, people don't have to chase down a wild boar for dinner, or run away from a wild animal. Thank goodness for that!
However, this easier lifestyle does have its drawbacks. In fact there's nothing stopping a person nowadays from just slouching in bed half the day only to move to the couch for the other half. This kind of lifestyle will lead to detrimental effects for the person involved. This is obviously the worst case scenario, and I hope there aren't many people in this situation. The main point is that we are in a fake comfort zone, and we need to make mature decisions to look after our health and fitness. Sure our prehistoric friend could have just decided to lie down and be killed by the blood thirsty beast or just decide to stay in bed and go hungry. It's highly unlikely, and if you look at it from modern mans perspective, it's highly unlikely we will get in shape if we don't make strong decisions to take action and do the weekly exercises at the very least.
People nowadays do a lot of running and jogging, walking and cycling. They are all primarily long distance type training. And they lead to aerobic respiration. Now in this program we want to aim for the Holy Grail as it were and achieve an-aerobic respiration activity. Running done in the normal way, i.e. running a few miles will lead to aerobic respiration, but if it is adapted, it can be changed to HIIT. This can be done by going all out sprinting for 90 seconds followed by a minute rest, or walking. This is training at high intensity with intervals. Easy enough? Remember jogging won't lead to significant fat losses. It's only good for a quick warm up or warm down after training. Cycling can be altered too to operate as a HIIT method by incorporating short bursts of intensity followed by rest intervals.
