Quick HIIT Workout

Quick HIIT Workout

When you are new to working out, the hardest things are, knowing where to start, staying motivated, and having the equipment you need. Solve all those problems with this HIIT workouts beginner.

Now let’s break it down. You started working out because you want to improve your health and fitness. That’s great! Welcome to the club!

Now, let’s take a closer look at what improving your health and fitness means. Improving your health and fitness means increasing your strength, improving muscular endurance, and improving your cardiovascular fitness. This HIIT workout will take care of all three. Bodyweight exercises build strength and muscular endurance without requiring a single piece of equipment (you can cross the equipment problem off your list). While the format of 30 seconds of all-out effort followed by a brief rest will improve cardiovascular fitness.

Just don’t do this workout every day. HIIT workouts take some time to recover from. When starting on your fitness journey, perform a HIIT workout 1-2 times per week. On alternating days, try more strength-focused workouts like this one or this one. Or try yoga or slower steady-state cardio to get your muscles moving and your blood flowing.
