The benefits of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) include improved cardiovascular fitness, enhanced calorie burning, and time efficiency. HIIT workouts alternate between short bursts of intense exercise and rest or lower-intensity periods, maximizing workout productivity in a shorter duration. This training method elevates the heart rate, promoting effective fat loss while preserving muscle mass. Additionally, HIIT can improve metabolic rate even after the workout is completed, known as the "afterburn" effect. HIIT can be tailored to various fitness levels, making it accessible and popular among diverse populations.
