Whats your HIIT vehicle? jogging? skating? rowing? cycling? elliptical?

why are you sore all over? i've done HIIT up to 5x a week before and no soreness issues then. as a matter of fact, i don't even get sore doing HIIT. (threadmill- running)
the only time i did have trouble while doing HIIT was after leg workout days.
and even then, its not HIIT that was the problem.. it was my sore legs from leg workouts the day b4.
could it be not enough protein in your diet?

Maybe your hiit is super intense so you end up sore. hehe

u shd try tabata circuits too. supposed to be worse then HIIT.

what is your pace?
perhaps they did it in very intense way


i did my HIIT on Treadmill
60s at pace 12
60s at pace 4

repeating for 3 round

then my calve and foot fatigue like hell....i'm flat footer..it's common my foo get fatigue and hell pain after running

my pace is variable. but first round is 10 incline at 15kmph for 1 min.
then starts to reduce from there each circuit. can't maintain the same speed... the last circuit could be around 6-8 incline at speed 9-11kmph. depending on how i feel.
when i'm out of shape i might rest 2 mins instead of 1 btwn the high intensity pace

I did HIIT on the park. I run like crazy. All people looking at me, but I dont care. Just do it On threadmill you cannot go real fast. I'm talking about 100m fast sprint like going to competition in school . I do 10-15 second sprint 30 second break. I repeat that for about 12-15 minutes. Then tomorrow morning come the soreness. It even hurt at the abs and some soreness at the shoulder. Maybe got a little bit to do with my previous weight train which is 2 days before. But the most hurt part is feet, calf and thighs. Even squat don't hurt that much

nothing beats the soreness and aching of sprinting 100m old-school style.
abs, thighs and calves feel crazy!!! can't do that in the gym though.

are you sure? u shld try some leg work in the gym for comparison
throw in a squat, leg press, calf raise

with proper form.. i guarantee u the same euphoria hahah

don't know what all the hype about HIIT is about.

I feel that LISS makes more sense when bodybuilding.

young people prefer HITT, to channel their excessive energy n anger.. make use of their explosiveness + reaction time.. feel like to scrum all people around after recover from hitt session! hohoh

when i older perhaps may turn to LISS.. worry if i may injured myself doin hitt.. recuperation may not be that fast as when i am younger... huhu

love the andrenalin rush doin thos hitt.. also love the after effect : better pump and blood flow to my lil brother down there

doesnt really matter whether its HIIT or LISS or PUKE or GRRL. just do you cardio dues and you'll lose those fats. these are all gimmicks IMHO. whatever it is, its still cardio if you ask me. LOL

ya.. its just gimmick... just excuses for us fat people to comfort ourself that we are doing sum cardio.. hehe..

some people i know can just wolf down everything, yet stay very slim.. im jealous huhu..

Can try for treadmill warm up...

2 mins - 5.5km/h or 6.0km/h for tall people
5 mins - 8/5km/h
3 mins - 11km/h

graggh, stop making fun of me

ermm.. i m damn fat... with all d fats in the tummy area... so my plan now is to just crank up all d muscles, and hopefulyl burn enough fats with d muscles i have... my calves n upper body part is full of mucles... only thighs n tummy cannot see..

Your workout looks fine, but too many reps? 15? I seldom go that high unless I'm warming up.

Are you eating enough to sustain your workout?
