HIIT or jogging

What study would you be talking about?
If you're referring to EPOC Post Exercise Oxygen Consumption, the 24 hour EPOC is a farse. Try 15 minutes.

But some people will believe that you can work for for 15 minutes and get the same results as you can with 1 hour because all they do is take shortcuts

recent studies show HIIT burns more fat than HIT or low-moderate.
 
Anyway these guys do a good job of explaining what happens when you do low , moderate or high intensity cardio.

basically with HIIT , when you do high intensity cardio, you body doesn't have enough time to supply oxygen to the muscles at work , which means that glycogen is burned in order to do the exercise. In order to burn fat as fuel , oxygen is required. So when doing high intensity , you typically more more calories (in comparison to low intensity steady state) , but more of the calories come from carbohydrate sources due to the fact that oxygen cannot be supplied to the muscles fast enough to enough to effectively burn fat as fuel.

The best fat burning strategy is steady state low intensity w/moderate intensity intervals. I gues I'll call it MIIT, lol That way you max out your VO2MAX during the intervals, but yet keep the exercise going for an hour or so the steady state low intensity


And this thread should be in the cardio forum not the weight training forum

I will have to look for it. I cant remember of the top of my head.

i dont think the study had them doing cardio for 15 mins. it was like run all out for 1 min then walk for 1, run for 2 then walk for 2, run for 3 then walk for 3. it was some kind of pyramiding scheme if i remember correctly.
 
i have always done low-moderate intensity cardio bc it works for me.

i usually walk at 3mph and increase the incline by .5 every minute up to 9 and hold there for several minuts then back down in the same fashion. it takes about 45 minutes and i keep my hr ~ 60-70%.

It gets me shredded.

I did read an article where HIIT increases test so there is added benefit there.

I am trying to do 3 days at 5 miles and 3 days HIIT interval. That is my goal this summer. I will let you know how it turns out.

Speaking of a good sprint interval - has anyone tried the 30 seconds full spring 90 seconds walk X 10?? It is good because it can be done almost anywhere and only takes 20 minutes.
