HIIT training is a series of short bursts of maximum intensity followed by a short period of recovery. The key words here are MAXIMUM INTENSITY, a concept that seems to be foreign to even the most respected fitness professionals out there today. HIIT training IS pulling or pushing a sled at maximum intensity for eight to 10 seconds followed by a 25- to 30-second rest period. HIIT training is NOT running on a treadmill for 45 seconds then resting for 90 seconds.

Below are four fat-blasting indoor HIIT workouts that can be done in just about any gym, anywhere

WORKOUT 1: STEPMILL/STAIRMASTER WORKOUT

– 2 minute warm-up at level 5
– 1 minute level 10
– 30 seconds level 7
– 1 minute level 11
– 30 seconds level 8
– 1 minute level 13
– 30 seconds level 9
– 1 minute level 14
– 30 seconds level 10
– 30 seconds level 15
– 1 minute level 10
– 30 seconds level 14
– 1 minute level 9
– 30 seconds level 13
– 1 minute level 8
– 30 seconds level 12
– 1 minute level 7
– 30 seconds level 11
– 3 minute cool-down level 5

WORKOUT 2: INDOOR ROWING MACHINE WORKOUT

– 3 minute 50 percent row for warm-up
– 1 minute maximum intensity, one minute moderate
– 2 minute max, 2 minute moderate
– 1 minute max, 90 seconds moderate
– 90 seconds max, 1 minute moderate

WORKOUT 3 JUMP ROPE/SLED PUSH WORKOUT

– With jump rope, do double spins (2 spins per jump) for 12 to 15 seconds, then single spin per jump for 45 seconds for 10 reps.
– Plate or sled pushes. Lay a 45-pound plate flat on ground. Place hands on plate, have a sprinter stance with ass in the air, and drive the plate 2.5 feet, spin around and come back (45-second rest, 8 reps)
– Do this in completion 3 times through.

WORKOUT 4: INDOOR DEADMILL SPRINTS

– Turn off the treadmill and use the handle bars to brace yourself with you head down and back flat
– Sprint as hard as you can using leg drive to manually move the treadmill belt for 15 to 20 seconds
– Rest 30 seconds.
– Complete the above circuit a total of 20 times

Smart Carb Choices for Better Health

Naturally Occurring vs. Processed Carbs

I’ve always emphasized the differences between naturally occurring carbohydrates and processed carbohydrates when I created individualized meal plans for clients. Naturally occurring carbohydrates appear as they do in nature, and processed carbohydrates are ground into a flour, typically for a baking process or to be used as a filler. Our bodies are hardwired to break down naturally occurring carbohydrates efficiently. And before certain food crops such as wheat were genetically modified, our bodies were able to digest processed carbohydrates fairly well, but not as well as naturally occurring carbs. However, since the introduction of the genetic modification of foods, the majority of which are grain crops, our bodies reject the genetically modified foods due to the incompatibility of the DNA sequences in relation to our DNA’s sequences. When consumed, the resulting inflammation throughout the digestive tract is caused by the body’s rejection of the genetically modified food. When there is inflammation in the digestive tract, the body’s ability to absorb vitamins and minerals is compromised. When we do not absorb vitamins and minerals properly, disorders begin to occur over time. Simply put, our bodies were designed to break down specifically natural foods and not genetically modified, processed foods.

Increase in Blood Sugar, Body Fat Storage

Another adverse effect of the consumption of genetically modified, processed carbohydrates is the sudden increase in blood sugar as opposed to the slower, gradual increase of blood sugar for energy that naturally occurring carbs provide. When sugar spikes suddenly, or becomes erratic, the body recognizes the sugar as a primary fuel source, which results in body fat storage. The slower, gradual increase in blood sugar which occurs with naturally occurring carbohydrates can provide energy while maintaining the body’s ability to use or “burn” body fat, as a result of the stabilization of the blood sugar.

I strongly encourage the selection of naturally occurring carbohydrates rather than processed carbs to maximize the body’s potential for energy and proper digestion and absorption of nutrients. Alter your diet for a month and witness the results firsthand. Here are two lists displaying the differences:

Naturally Occurring Carbohydrates

• Organic Sweet Potato

• Organic Yam

• Organic Red Skin Potato

• Organic Oats

• Organic Brown Rice

• Organic Quinoa

• Organic Chickpeas

dreamstime m 212181259 good carbs vs bad carbs 683x1024 2

Processed Carbohydrates

• Bread

• Cereal

• Wheat Flour

• Pasta

• Bagels

• Muffins/Pastries

 

Helpful Tip: Limit your carbohydrate intake to your first three meals of the day, or a timing of 9:00 a.m., 12 noon, and 3:00 p.m. (or morning through the afternoon). Our bodies utilize carbohydrates more efficiently earlier in the day. Set a rule to have no starchy carbohydrates with dinner or later, and keep those meals limited to protein, vegetable, and a salad.
