You may have heard about HIIT workouts, or high intensity interval training. You may have even tried a few out. They are proven strategies for burning fat, improving endurance and health and increasing lean muscle. It is a training technique that provides bursts of high levels of exercise followed by short recovery periods. Typically the short work intervals are at a 70-90 percent max heart rate, while the recovery periods are at a 60-65 percent max heart rate. “A high-intensity workout increases the body’s need for oxygen during the effort and creates an oxygen shortage, causing your body to ask for more oxygen during recovery,” says Eric Salvador, NASM, NSCA, head instructor at The Fhitting Room in New York City. “This afterburn effect is referred to as Excess Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption (EPOC) and is the reason why intense exercise will help burn more fat and calories than regular aerobic and steady-state workouts."
At the top of the 683 foot building, on the 56th floor, you will find the fitness center at The Austonian in downtown Austin, Texas. This gym is definitely one you will not lose interest in, with breath taking views and state of the art fitness equipment
