HIIT

I think that high interval training is a great thing. We did a lot of workouts like that when I played soccer and track and I absolutely loved it. Rather than mapping out how you will pace yourself and exert energy over a long period of time, HIIT allows you to give your all for a short amount of time and have a recovery period following soon after. I really like the short hard periods with the break quickly behind because you focus on working your hardest for the time being without totally exhausting yourself. I also like the science behind this method of exercise. Considering the low level of fatigue to follow this type of exercise encourages me to work even harder knowing that the recovery won't be as bad.
