HIIT Ideas
ok, here the situation, I lift about 4 days a week and want to start some intense fat burning, I have been doing cardio 2 days a week in between 2 day lifting intervals. for about a month and a half. I want to kick it up a notch and try this HIIT Ive been hearing so much about. As of right now for cardio I do:
10 min stretch
10-15 min sprints
10 min going up and down steps
5-10 min light jog
15-20 min Hand-eye co-ordination (a.k.a. throwing a tennis ball against a brick wall, track and catch/retrieve)
10 min cool down stretch
Is this basically a version of HIIT?
Is twice a week enough to burn a substancial amount of fat?
Any Idea about HIIT without any treadmills, Elipticals, or stairs. (just weights or the great outdoors)?
My diet is ok right now, consisting of sushi, whole wheat turkey & veggie sandwiches (light mayo), no drinks except water and occational gatorade when i run out of energy, Amplify Protein Shake(with water not milk), tuna, veggies, peanut butter...These are basically the staples.... round about 1700-2100 cals/day
Any recommended diets that arent completely depriving but effective??
Im 5'9 215lb
Thanks, You guys Rock!

I train differently than most, my beef is with gravity the weights on the bar are just the medium...Thanks to Wall Street your slice of the American Pie has been reduced to a crumb.

Heres a thread I found quite informative with a link to a HIIT program that is only jogging and running, any opinions on that?

HIIT look through that thread as well as the links within it. You will get an idea as to what/how you should do HIIT.
Also look up the sticky 'guide to...' in the diet forum.

Damn strait man, I know what you mean NOW. I just went and cycled for 6 minutes 30secs jog 30 secs sprint like the article said to do. It thoroughly kick my ass. I had no idea, now I do. It sounded weak until you try it.... The pace puts my other regiment to shame. Less stuff, but ALOT more intensity....

I most certainly have and will continue to listen to the wonderful advice of the people here. The HIIT was most impactful today.....

If you really wanna burn fat, start weight training.
Weight train 3-4 days a week. Do HIIT cardio 2-3 days per week on either off days OR at least 8 hours after weight training."Show me a beautiful woman, and I'll show you a guy tired of screwing her"
