What is HIIT Workout?

HIIT workout stands for "High Intensity Interval Training" (which makes one of the most popular phrases used to describe it, "HIIT training", completely redundant). You shouldn't necessarily think of HIIT as a single style of exercise, like running or lifting weights. Instead, HIIT is more of a framework through which trainers can build different routines depending on the equipment they have available, the experience of the participants, and the amount of time and level of difficulty required. 

The main benefits of HIIT Workout

●Fat loss

One review looked at 13 different studies of 424 overweight and obese adults. Both HIIT and traditional moderate-intensity exercise have been found to reduce weight and waist circumference.

●Metabolic rate is higher for several hours

Some researchers have found that HIIT increases metabolism hours after exercise even more than jogging and weight training. This is known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (informally called the afterburn), the measurably increased rate of oxygen uptake after strenuous activity.
