I prefer HIIT because I feel I get more done. Look at a lot of sprinters(short distance), they are all very ripped and muscular. Do you think they sit on the treadmill for an hour at 70% workload?
I'm working up to higher amounts of med speed walking right now: AM Precor at aboud 65% and PM treadmill at speed 3, incline 8. THis is a pretty easy effort but this is what has been assigned to me by my trainer. All fat burning is the goal.
Well look at a sprinter and a marathon runner. The marathon runer is lanky and skinny and the sprinter is ripped. I do HIIT about twice a week by sprintning. It really kills my ankles though. I am 6'2 250 I may switch to a stationary bike.
Look how many sprinters get send home for AAS use too....plus, their training approach is 300x different........marathon runners (95%) won't touch a weight........sprinters are in the gym daily.........different goals, to compare the two cardio vascular wise is absurd.......
I said nothing about cardio vascular differences. I was comparing their bodies. And yes their goals are different, but this post was about comparing the HIIT to moderate cardio which is like comparing a marathon runner to a sprinter.
