30-MIN NO-REPEAT HIIT Workout w/ Warmup + Cool Down (Burn LOADS of Calories!)

A few things about HIIT:

1. Like anything related to your body, you should only do HIIT in moderation.

2. You shouldn't do more than 20 minutes of HIIT at a time (if you're actually working at your max effort).

3. True HIIT is 1:1 or 2:1 exercises to rests. (eg: 30 seconds of work, followed by 30 or 15 seconds of rest).

4. You should work to get your heart rate back down as much as possible during the breaks. You can do this by taking deep breaths.

5. By working at your max effort and then getting your heart rate to lower during the rests, you activate something called EPOC that can make your body continue burning calories from this workout for up to 24 hours after you finish it.

A few things about today's workout:

1. It has a warm-up and cool down built right into it.

2. There's only 20 minutes of actual HIIT (for the reason stated above).

3. It includes modifications for anyone who doesn't want to jump.

4. You can do this at your own pace. Work faster or slower than me if you need to. Take longer breaks if you want!

5. My legs are still sore from this one. 10/10 recommend doing a foam rolling routine before and after this workout.
