We at RH Studios take pleasure in providing the finest service and experience for our fitness clients at the studio. Russell Hewes, our founder, married his partner in Dorset on Saturday, May 14th.

But before he is walking down aisle and begun the celebration, he insisted that him and his groomsmen would all do a HIIT work to get the blood coursing through the the body and the muscles pumped.

Within this article we will take you through the setup of the article and a simple HIIT work with different stations can help you to achieve your goal.

What is a HIIT workout session

Before we even get into the workout, a HIIT workout is a high-intensity interval training workout. This type of workout alternates between periods of max effort and active rest, or low-intensity intervals. HIIT workouts are incredibly effective because they help you torch calories both during and after the workout is completed.

why should you do Interval training

Interval training is a type of physical training that involves bursts of high-intensity work followed by periods of rest or low-intensity activity. The high-intensity intervals increase your heart rate and challenge your cardiovascular system, while the periods of rest allow you to catch your breath and recover.

What are the 5 benefits of HIIT workout 

HIIT session offer several benefits, including:

• Increased calories burn during and after the workout

• Improved cardiovascular health

• Increased fat loss

• Improved athletic performance

• You may gain muscle mass

How to set up a HIIT Workout

When it comes to putting up a HIIT workout, things are relatively simple since you're simply assigning different parts of a room or outdoor space with various sorts of exercises to get the blood flowing.

For example, before the wedding, a group of eight people was instructed by Nathan, our PT, to stand at different workout stations that he had set up on a field near where we were staying.

These different workout stations for a Interval workout were:

• Squats

• Press ups

• Sprints

• Burpees

Every station, we spent 30 seconds with a 15-second pause in between to allow us to catch our breath. 

(A great App to use to keep time is the interval timer app you can download from the app store or google app store.)

A 20 minute HIIT workout

Below you'll find an easy HIIT workout that you can follow which you can later adapt as you become more familiar with different exercises.  

Set aside parts of the training room or outside space with distinct workstations before beginning your group HIIT exercise or solo session. Also, don't forget to download and install an interval timer app; this will make timekeeping a lot easier for you.

Within this HIIT workout you'll be doing 4 different exercises for a total of 4 sets.

Below is the order of how you should do the workout:

1. Sprint for 30 seconds

2. Squat for 30 seconds

3. Burpee for 30 seconds

4. Press up for 30 seconds

Rest for 15seconds in-between each exercise and once you've done them all take a minute 1 rest before you begin the next set.

Repeat 4 more times and you'll done a 20minute workout.
