HIIT
How it works
A 10-second countdown leads into 20 rounds. Work for 130 seconds on each movement, rest 15 seconds between movements and 20 seconds between rounds.
Take the first round easy. Set a steady pace you can sustain and take extra breaks as needed. Use a stable, non-slip step about 4–8 in (10–20 cm) high.
The movements
- 130 sec each interval
Step-ups
Put your whole foot on a low, non-slip box. Step up and down under control, alternating your lead leg each rep.
Make it easier Use a lower step you can climb without momentum.
- 130 sec each interval
Marching in place
Lift one knee at a time and place each foot down softly. Keep your torso tall and let your arms swing naturally.
