Ready to work up a sweat? This 30-minute high-intensity session is guaranteed to get your heart rate thumping and endorphins pumping! During this session, the main aim is to exercise anaerobically (that is, without oxygen), to push yourself and force your body to work in a stressful environment. You’ll know if you’re doing it right if you feel nauseous and an almost overwhelming desire to stop! But be strong, keep digging deep and just get it done.
UP YOUR FITNESS
There are many rewards to this type of training. This includes an increase in your anaerobic threshold, your ability to perform any vigorous exercise before needing to use the anaerobic energy system. In short, you become fitter.
Training in this way can also increase your metabolism via something known as EPOC (excess post-exercise oxygen consumption).
