Description
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has been riding a wave of popularity, and it seems everyone wants to give it a try. If your clients haven’t asked you about HIIT yet, chances are, they will.
Studies find high-intensity interval training protects against heart disease and shows promise for improving insulin sensitivity and controlling blood pressure. The challenge is that HIIT classes can be unnecessarily tough on the body if not taught or performed properly.
Learn how to teach safe HIIT classes that utilize all intensity variables and get your clients results.

Exercises from the 80s. Not much creative or new. High energy instructor but I literally found nothing new I could take on board from this video. V disappointing.
