The first week of HIIT has been relatively tough. Finding middle ground is what is proving to be the challenge. Day 1, I pushed myself too hard and almost fainted. Day 3, I was so afraid of fainting, I did not really push myself. With the lack of afterburn, I really felt guilty and pushed myself more on Day 6. With a day of rest in between that and today, I think I got the right amount of burn on Day 6. I could possibly push myself more

Compared to BP which I really love, HIIT is a different kind of burn. I found myself more injury prone with BP.

Warm Up:

40 secs of jumping jacks x1

40 secs of Side Plank (Right + Left + Centre) x 1

Work Out 1:

4Osecs of Kettlebell deadlifts / 20 secs of rest x 5

40 secs of push ups / 20 secs of rest x 5

Work Out 2:

40 secs of burpees /20 secs of rest x 5

40 secs of dead row / 20 secs of rest x 5

Completed 5/5 of work out 1, and 4/5 of work out 2. Already a marked improvement! My own target is set for 12 -15 reps for ALL. Plus, my current burpee form is just sad but that’s all I can muster up so tough, sad is what I’ll take.
