Good stuff! I thought statins had some serious downsides...?
I work mainly with people 40 and older. Your prescription is a very good one. I have my clients use a rating of perceived exertion for intervals three days a week, with lesser cardio sessions the remaining days of the week. As their V02 max improves, I shift them to heart range levels three days a week, starting at a 1 minute up, three minutes rest ratio, graduating to an ultimate 1:1 ratio. I am a NASM trainer and was ACE for ten years.
They do have some issues, but are common and cheap.
I wonder why so much HIIT (is it really high intensity at 95% max HR?)?
I find Low Intensity restorative, and offers the same cardio vascular benefit and metabolic change benefit in the mitochondria.
Of course, it takes more time.
And, does the weight training offer some of the benefit of HIIT?
You seem to be the man to ask.
Hi, actually I’m the lady to ask, LOL! HIIT can go as high as 100%, but it should not be done often, and I’m not a fan. Check your email! We might be annoying folks here! :-D
