10-Minute Beginner HIIT Workout
HIIT, or high-intensity interval training, is a training technique in which you give 100% effort during quick, intense bursts of exercise. Each interval is followed by a short recovery period. HIIT workouts keep your heart rate up and they burn more fat in less time. You'll be working in 30-second intervals. To help track your time, I suggest using a TABATA timer for this workout. They are available on Amazon, but feel free to use whatever works best for you.
Do your HIIT workouts on days off from your weekly training plan.
