Do you value Time?



McKay et al.
Effect of short-term high-intensity interval training vs. continuous training on O2 uptake kinetics, muscle deoxygenation, and exercise performance.J Appl Physiol. 2009 Jul;107(1):128-38. Epub 2009 May 14.
These researchers compared eight sessions of 8-12 intervals (one minute work to one minute recovery), to eight sessions of 90-120 minute steady state cardio.

Total workout time for the interval group was 80 mins over the 19 day study. Total workout time for the steady state group was 825 minutes. The adaptations were the same in both groups despite the interval training group exercising for one tenth of the time of the steady state group.

Are you training with Short, High Intensity - or are you Killing time?!
